Siting from article: "Shrouds down to the side of the hull would be at too acute an angle from the mast,...". This is not true refering to the two illustrations following this article. On the contrary - with the top, the angle is more acute than without! There must be another explanation. KjellG ( talk) 21:23, 16 May 2011 (UTC)
Is this (sometimes/always) the same thing as a "monkey's nest"? I've found references to that term in these sources, but cannot determine how/where to mention it in WP, and am not certain enough to write it up in Wiktionary.
