What is a "yawl"?
A yawl is a type of boat with two masts, one in the front and a smaller one at the back. The smaller mast, called the mizzen mast, is positioned behind the main mast near the stern, which is the rear end of the boat. This design helps improve the boat’s balance, making it easier to steer, especially in strong winds. Yawls are often used for sailing long distances and are valued for their stability and maneuverability. They can be used for both recreational sailing and racing, with the extra mast providing more control over the boat’s direction and speed.
Example
The crew adjusted the sails on the yawl to catch the shifting wind.
They anchored the yawl in a secluded cove for a peaceful night.
He raised the sails on the yawl in preparation for an afternoon sail.
