Kytty_Kat 1 Posted December 28, 2018 The sails count a lot toward the overall beauty of the ship. The beauty of the ships in atlas (Brigantine, Galleon and maybe others) is broken by the lack of a bowsprit and jib sails. The bowsprit is the spar extending forward from a ship's bow. Usually the jib sails are attached to it and it gives the ship the historic and beautiful look we seek in ship building. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bowsprit https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jib 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
