masted
Having tall spars
Masted describes something equipped with a mast or masts—the tall vertical poles on sailing vessels that support sails and rigging.
The word typically appears in compounds specifying the number: a three-masted schooner, a single-masted sloop.
A ship that has been dismasted in a storm has lost its masts.
