WHAT DOES CATBOAT MEAN IN ENGLISH?

catboat

Catboat

A catboat, or a cat-rigged sailboat, is a sailing vessel characterized by a single mast carried well forward, generally the beam is approximately half the length and a catboat generally utilizes a gaff rig. The hull is typically light and shallow draft. A typical New England iteration has a very long boom that extends over the transom and may have a bowsprit to support foresails and mast. Although any boat with a single sail and a mast carried well forward is 'technically' a catboat, the traditional catboat has a wide beam approximately half the length of the boat, a centreboard, and a single gaff-rigged sail. Some catboats such as the Barnegat Bay type and more modern catboat designs carry a Bermuda sail. A jib is sometimes added, but this may require a bowsprit, and technically creates a sloop sail-plan.
