    storicoA type of light, seaworthy vessel used in trade and the transport of fish in Britain and Ireland in the late medieval and early modern period.

    Others, used commonly as fishing boats and in trade with Ireland, were “picards”, named often in the Tolsey Court books as pledges for debts, and worth about £8.

    Irish picards were noted as leaving Bridgewater or Minehead one day with small cargoes of salt or victuals, and returning the next or even the same day with loads of fish.

    Picards were very small. They were sailing lighters of some kind, primarily used to carry the catches from fishing boats at sea to port.

Etimologia
