During the age of sail, ship signified a ship-rigged vessel, that is, one with three or more masts, usually three, all square-rigged. Such a vessel would normally have one fore and aft sail on her aftermost mast which was usually the mizzen. Almost invariably she would also have a bowsprit but this was not part of the definition. The same economic pressures which increased sizes to the point of carrying four or five masts, also introduced the fore and aft rig to larger vessels, so few ship-rigged vessels were built with more than three masts. The five-masted Preussen was the outstanding example, but the big German ships and barques were built partly for prestige reasons.

In The Colorado Rogues a Ship is a selected group of People under a [[Captain]] and thier officers that follow [[The Flagship]] and its general direction but in thier own individual way. In addition to the Ships there is [[The House]] and [[The Harbour]] that serve the same purpose.
