sloop rig

Every one of the ten candidates was a sloop rig!

They are not traditionally rigged, instead having conventional fractional sloop rigs.

A sloop rig version was also available.

The sloop rig only begins to show an advantage with small angles of attack, such as encountered when close-hauled.

The 81-foot yacht carries a sloop rig, a standard feature on Whitbread maxi-yachts.

It has a cutter rig, easier to handle than the mammoth sloop rigs of most professional yachts.

I'd learned a term for Gullfish's sail and mast configuration: "sloop rig."

The Wanderer is a masthead sloop rig with a deck-stepped mast.

It has a fractional sloop rig.

They may have any -rig, but schooner and sloop rigs are most common, the latter being the favorite for racing on account of its simplicity.

The 110 uses a fractional sloop rig, with an optional spinnker, and has the rudder mounted far forward of the stern.

It is a double-handed (two person) monohull sailboat with a sloop rig (one headsail one main sail).

This capability is the result of a sail-plan and hull design, typically a sloop rig, that utilizes Bernoulli's principle to generate lift (force).

Traditionally the sloop rig was a rig with a single mast located forward of 70% of the length of the sailplan.

After the cat rig, which has only a mainsail, the sloop rig is one of the simpler sailing rig configurations.

Jzero, for example, and all of Russell Brown's other designs, use a sloop rig and hoist a jib on whichever end is the current "bow".

This rig requires a much stiffer hull than a fractional sloop rig to take these rigging loads, so is not well suited for lightly built boats.

Its rig, a low-profile, 3 point fractional Sloop rig, kick-up rudder, and swinging keel make the Front Runner a high-performance sailing craft.

The traditional sail used on the proa was the crab-claw sail, which generates far more lift than the more common triangular sloop rig used on small boats, particularly when reaching.

The Olson 30 featured a single spreader masthead sloop rig with aluminum spars from either Sparcraft Spars or Ballenger Spars of Santa Cruz.

The yachts have a masthead sloop rig, with a fin keel and a skeg-mounted rudder, a cutting edge concept for the period which now represents a cross between newer and older designs.

It is able to sleep two, (with more if a tent is added to the boom), and the sloop rig includes mainsail, jib and a spinnaker on an aluminum mast and boom.

The ability of the sloop rig in general to sail upwind meant a Bermuda sloop could outrun most other sailing ships by simply turning upwind and leaving its pursuers floundering in its wake.

Small sailboats are commonly made from fiberglass, and will have wood, aluminum, or carbon-fiber spars, and generally a sloop rig (two sails: a mainsail and a jib, commonly include 3rd sail the spinnaker for going downwind).

Although a Bermudan sloop rig has now been introduced for the Mirror, the original Gunter rig (with a gaff that effectively doubles the height of the mast) meant that all the spars could be packed inside the hull for easy storage or transportation.
