  1. bermudan rig

    A Bermudan rig is a type of configuration or design for the sails and mast of a sailing vessel. It is characterized by a triangular or three-cornered mainsail, referred to as a "Bermudian mainsail", which is hoisted from a mast when in use. The leading edge of the Bermudan mainsail is attached to the mast, and the foot, or bottom edge of the sail, is usually boom-borne. Compared with gaff rigs, Bermudan rigs are more aerodynamically efficient and easier to handle, especially in high winds or rough seas. They are widely used on modern sailing boats and yachts.
