Snow
Description[edit]
The most common two-masted merchant vessel in northern Europe. They looked rather like a brig with two square-rigged masts, a main and a foremast, but to the seaman, the additional trysail mast hoisting a gaff-headed loose-footed sail abaft the main mast was unmistakable. When brigs were rigged as snows, they used a horse (stout rope) as the trysail mast, the fore part of the sail being attached by rings to it.
