Answer

SLOOP

A sloop is a type of sailing vessel characterized by a single mast and a fore and aft rig, typically featuring one headsail. The word comes from the Dutch word 'sloep' and has been used since the 17th century. Sloops were historically popular for both commercial and military purposes, and today remain one of the most common sailboat configurations for recreational sailors.

Strategy Tip

Today's puzzle features a double letter, which can be tricky to spot. When you have confirmed some letters but the word still seems elusive, consider whether any letters might appear twice. Words with double O, double L, or double E are more common than you might think.
