A two-masted fore and aft rigged vessel is called a "ketch" if the smaller mast, or mizzen mast, is located behind the main mast. If the mizzen mast is located in front of the main mast, the vessel is referred to as a "yawl." Both types are designed for efficient sailing and maneuverability, often used in cruising and recreational sailing.
