Property of the author
Red Galley – functions of agitprop wagon too – is a galley for 80 oarsmen and one lookout/helmsman. There is one oar per every two seats in the galley, and each oar passes through a hole in the wall of the wagon. When oarsmen begin rowing in concert (on command), the galley begins to swing inside the wagon, thus turning into a menacing battering ram.
