More or less. Obviously, a prow pointed enough to cut water is pretty
much nonsensical for a spacecraft, so it doesn't have to be EXACTLY
shaped like a seagoing galleon, but the idea is that someone who looks
at this ship, and is familiar with sea vessels that by then will be
roughly 4000 years in the past, will think 'galleon'.
