dandy-rig, another name, fallen into disuse, for the
ketch and
yawl rigs. It was also sometimes used to describe the rig when the
mizzen-sail was about one-third the size of the mainsail, the true ketch rig having a mizzen-sail about half the size of the mainsail and the true yawl rig having a mizzen-sail a quarter the size, or less. In some English West Country craft the mizzen-mast was stepped just forward of the
transom stern either to one side of the
tiller or with an iron tiller crooked around the mast. The sail, of triangular shape, sheeted to an
outrigger or
bumpkin, was called the dandy, and a boat so rigged, such as the Falmouth Quay punt, was called dandy rigged.
