A sloop, derived from the Dutch word 'sloep', in turn from French 'chaloupe' is a sailing boat with sails on a single mast and a fore and aft rig. You'll find only one head-sail on a sloop.
Not to be confused with a cutter - which has two or more head-sails, and often a mast set further atop.
Dating right back to the early 17th century, sloops did not really become the 'in thing' until the 20th century. This timeline does, however, offer a buyer a wonderful array of classic sloops for sale on the market, both in tip-top condition, ready to sail, and those that are destined to become a project boat for an enthusiast and perhaps one who has deep pockets! But worth every penny at the end undoubtedly.
