Brigantine, английский
- A two-masted vessel with foremast square rigged, and mainmast fore and aft rigged.
- A square-rigged vessel with two masts. a term variously applied by the mariners of different european nations to a peculiar sort of vessel of their own marine. amongst british seamen this vessel is distinguished by having her main-sail set nearly in the plane of her keel, whereas the main-sails of larger ships are spread athwart the ship`s length, and made fast to a yard which hangs parallel to the deck; but in a brig, the foremost side of the main-sail is fastened at different heights to hoops which encircle the main-mast, and slide up and down it as the sail is hoisted or lowered: it is extended by a gaff above and a boom below. brigantine is a derivative from brig, first applied to passage-boats; in the celtic meaning “passage over the water.” (see hermaphrodite or brig-schooner.)
- A small two-masted ship, squarerigged on the foremast and main topmast, and foreand- aft on the lower mainmast.
