Rigging
The rigging is a way of describing sailing vehicles through the arrangement of masts and their equipment with sails . This alone can be used to designate ship types , but these are often refined by combining rigging and other properties such as the description of the hull . Even in the area of rigging, some boats or ships can be assigned to two groups, so the optimist is both spritz- and cat-rigged. Using certain words in this context sometimes creates new definitions in the sense of a technical language . So fully rigged means that a mast is equipped with square sails along its entire length.
