Both ships were now travelling very fast; and by the time that we had got our studdingsails set, the stranger was visible from our poop for about half-way down her topsails, and rising higher even as we watched.
But we were every whit as smart with our studdingsails as she was, and instantly hauled our wind after her, she being now about one point on our lee bow.
She was evidently making the utmost of the fair wind, for she had topmast and lower studdingsails set on both sides; and she was coming dead down the wind direct for us.
But by the time that she was abreast of us, and only about a hundred feet distant, both her starboard studdingsailswere in, and she was ready to round-to.
The light sails are all above the topsails, also the studdingsails and flying jib.
If you are going free with studdingsails set, you may clew up the lower and boom-end the topmast studdingsails, bring her up to the wind, and keep the sails lifting, without getting them aback.
The above list will hopefully give you a few useful examples demonstrating the appropriate usage of "studdingsails" in a variety of sentences. We hope that you will now be able to make sentences using this word.
