Default Cutter

You are truly ignorant of all things nautical.

Take a sloop and add a second
head sail and it becomes a cutter.


Actually, it is still a sloop, though a twin-headsail sloop.

The definition of "cutter" has become more of "twin headsails" through common
usage but still to this day a cutter has a main mast placed aft of the main
mast of a sloop.
