wild cat
(Felis

Sloop

Sloop (n.) A
vessel
having
one mast and
fore-and-aft
rig,
consisting
of a
boom-and-gaff
mainsail,
jibs,
staysail,
and gaff
topsail.
The
typical
sloop has a fixed
bowsprit,
topmast,
and
standing
rigging,
while those of a
cutter
are
capable

depends
for
stability
upon
breadth
of beam

approximated
since 1880. One
radical
distinction
is that a slop may carry a
centerboard.
