              A large sail formerly used with the wind aft or quartering. It
              was a square sail cut like a studding-sail, and set with a great yard on
              the end of the spanker-boom, across the taffrail. The name latterly has
              been officially applied to the spanker, both being the aftermost sails
              of a ship, the ring-tail being only an addition, as a studding or
              steering sail. (See STEERING-SAIL.) Also, the foremost spur in the
              bilge-ways, the heel of which is fayed to the fore-side of the foremost
              poppet, and the sides of it look fore and aft. Also, a sort of
              fishing-boat.
