lugsails

About this time the faint breeze freshened and came round to the southeast, which enabled us to get up one of our lugsails.

Three lugsails made from awning canvas were hoisted on 11 December, and four days later a set of square sails.

The lugsails of the Newlyn fleet of fishing boats can be seen in the background, out on the water.

It is a small sailing vessel with lugsails (see below) set on two or more masts and perhaps lug topsails.

She was then fitted with a mainmast and a mizzenmast, rigged to carry lugsails and a jib.

When the halyards had been slacked away and the yards of our lugsails passed around to the larboard sides of the masts, Bligh bore up to the west, and the men trimmed the sails to the northeast wind.

Fore-and-aft rigged sails include staysails, bermuda rigged sails, gaff rigged sails, gaff sails, gunter rig, lateen sails, lugsails, the spanker sail on a square rig and crab claw sails.

Our remaining supplies, outside of personal belongings, consisted of my medicine chest, the launch's two lugsails, some spare canvas, two or three coils of rope, and a copper pot, together with some odds and ends of boat's gear which the boatswain had had the forethought to bring with him.
