[a. AF. balengier (Froissart), ballenjer (in Du Cange), = OF. baleinier, a whale-ship, f. baleine whale; afterwards employed generically: so It. baleniera ‘kind of light pinnace.’]
A small and light sea-going vessel, apparently a kind of sloop, much used in the 15th and 16th centuries; according to Adm. Smyth, without forecastle. Its nature was already forgotten in 1670, when Blount could only infer the meaning of the word from old statutes; but the term is commonly used by modern historians in referring to the naval affairs of those times.
