Note.—The fore, main, and mizen masts of a Shi? are rigged in the same way as
the fore and main masts of a barque, but on a ship's crossjack-yard, which is the
lowest yard on the mizen mast, no lower square sail is generally set. The difference
between a barque and a ship may therefore be simply stated thus: that a ship has
a square topsail, topgallant sail, and royal, and mizen topmast staysail on the mizen
mast instead of a gaff topsail. But in many large ships there is a gaff topsail carried
on each mast in addition to the square topsail, in which case no main or mizen top¬
mast staysails are required.
