| Above the upper topsails are the topgallant sails and above these, the royals and the skysails. |
| For example, in a fresh gale, a well-conditioned man-of-war could just carry in chase, full and by, treble-reefed topsails, etc. |
| The Challenger crew sighted their first iceberg on February 10, 1874, after weathering a storm of such ferocity that the ship was forced to run under treble-reefed topsails. |
| Her fore and mizen topgallant masts had been carried away, the topgallant sails hung before the topsails, with the main topgallant masts standing, and all her sails set. |
| You will get the gist of the action, and not miss out on anything, even if you don't know about topsails and foremasts. |
| Despite carrying topsails she misses stays when we try and come about and I am forced to wear ship. |
