"sailing", explanation/synonym, ship

In the sentence it says that "The Europeans...were sailing down the west coast of Africa in their galleons." This tells us that the Europeans have to be in something that can sail on the coast/water. "Sailing" is an explanation for what the galleon is doing. it tells us that a galleon is a ship or boat that the Europeans used in the 1470s for trade. This also tells us it is not a small boat since it is used to carry goods from Europe to Africa and the West Indies.
