A gaff sail is a fore-and-aft sail with four corners and four edges. The lowest edge is called the foot and is attached to a horizontal spar called a boom. The vertical edge that is attached to the mast is called the luff; the upper edge is called the head and is attached to a spar called a gaff. The remaining edge is the leech. The corner between the luff and the head is called the throat, between the head and the leech is the peak, between the leech and the foot is the clew, and the remaining corner is called the tack.  2, record 7, English, - gaff%20sail

La voile à corne est située en arrière du mât sur lequel elle pivote, ce qui simplifie les virements de bord. Le haut de la voile est envergué sur un espar, appelé pic ou corne, qui se termine par une fourche - l'encornat - permettant l'articulation autour du mât. Le bas de la voile peut être dénué d'espar, (dans ce cas on dit voile à bordure libre), ou solidaire d'une bôme. Bien qu'elles ne soient guère supérieures aux voiles tiers, les voiles à cornes ont la réputation d'être plus faciles à manœuvrer.  2, record 7, French, - voile%20%C3%A0%20corne

There are three ways to tell whether gaffs are sharpened properly. Step 1 : Three ways to maintain climbers : 1. 1. Gauging. This method checks the gaff's length, width, and thickness and the profile of its point.... 1. 2. Plane test. This method may be used with the gauge or independently if the gaffs are sharpened by machine. The test is made by using a soft board to tell whether proper sharpness has been reached. Place the climber with the gaff side down and parallel to the board without applying downward pressure above the gaff. Push the climber along the board. If the gaff is properly contoured and sharpened, it will dig into the wood and hold within approximately one inch. If the climber continues to glide along the board for more than one inch, it needs more honing. 1. 3. Pole cutout. After the climbers have been machine sharpened or gauged(and as often as required thereafter), the gaffs may be tested on a pole.  1, record 9, English, - plane%20test

A turnbuckle is usually fitted just above the lower splice.  2, record 11, English, - jackstay
