Riiiight, so I guess the boat in Titanic was "probably a sloop"?



You could say that, in the same way that "Horvath is probably a mammal."

Actually, the Titanic was a schooner.



If you are thinking about her masts then you are mistaken.

A schooner is a fore and aft rigged ship carrying a smaller _sail_ on
the foremast and the main mast stepped nearly amidships or a vessel with
3 or more sail carrying masts.

Or are you saying it was a drinking vessel?


Cheers
