Hey einstein, your defintion suggests that any boat at port with no sails
rigged has no classification. You are the ignorant man. By definition: "The cutter is a single-masted boat whose mast is stepped almost near the center of the boat. Cutters often carry two relatively small jibs rather than one big one." -Annapolis Book of Seamanship note the word "often" "jlrogers" wrote in message . .. You are truly ignorant of all things nautical. "JAXAshby" wrote in message ... 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. |
