Hi Stephen (and everyone): First of all, base pedantry: bowsprits. No N anywhere in it. Second, the substance: Bowsprits varied in length historically, as indeed did the geometries of the bows to which they were attached. In part they were meant to (...) (22 years ago, 31-May-04, to lugnet.pirates)

(...) Ahoy and welcome! (...) Doubly cool. (...) A nice vessel indeed, I'd call it a brig, with or without a gaff sail - but I think a gaff sail would be a nice addition.
