Priscilla (sloop)

A "Priscilla" sloop refers to a sailing vessel of the sloop type that has been named "Priscilla." Sloops are generally single-masted sailing vessels with a fore-and-aft rig, meaning the sails are set along the line of the keel rather than across it. They typically have a mainsail and a headsail (such as a jib or genoa). The name "Priscilla" is a given name of Latin origin, meaning "venerable" or "ancient," and its application to a boat is a matter of personal preference by the owner. Therefore, the description of a "Priscilla" sloop is primarily defined by its sloop characteristics, with "Priscilla" serving as a unique identifier. Information regarding specific "Priscilla" sloops would depend on individual vessel histories, designs, and purposes.
