a tall, vertical pole on a ship or boat that supports the sails and rigging
A mast is a tall vertical pole used on boats, ships, or certain vehicles to support sails or other equipment like flags. Typically made of wood, metal, or fiberglass, it rises above the deck of the vessel. The mast helps to catch the wind in sails, allowing the boat or ship to move forward. It also provides support for rigging, which includes ropes or wires that control the position of the sails or other attached equipment. The height and strength of the mast are important for stability and performance.
