Abstract


Protective navigation was, during the Middle Ages, a defensive precaution taken by merchant shipping in times of conflict, but it was also a tactical possibility for warships. When enemies or pirates threatened the seas, the authorities who controlled shipping, both in Catalonia or in Ge­noa, ordered merchant vessels to navigate protectively, forming a convoy. This cooperation with one or more ships took on the form of a contract of corporation, valid for a voyage or for a fixed period.
