Barkentine

There was a barkentine in Halifax harbor. That was a thing worth looking at in the year 1933.

The William Olsen, a San Francisco barkentine, kedged out into the lagoon as fast as possible, and through the tearing sheets of rain I glimpsed other vessels reaching for a holding-ground.

She is passenger on the square-rigged barkentine Speedwell, now lying off the coast of Virginia.
