windjammer

Windjammers are commercial sailing ships characterized by multiple masts, with the term becoming popular during the 19th century as sailing transitioned to steam-powered vessels. Initially used pejoratively by steamship crews, the term has evolved to encompass various types of sailing ships, including passenger cruise ships.
