Galleys for the Mountains: Venice sends a massive fleet to challenge the Milanese. Six galleys and 25 smaller vessels are sent up the Adige River to Verona and then almost to Rovereto, then towed 25 kilometers over the mountains with 120 oxen per galley to the northern tip of Lake Garda. It takes 15 days and 2,000 oxen. This feat earns Venice universal admiration.
