To all whom it may concern: I 'n such manner that the two sails pertaining Be it known that I, JULIO E.

The invention con- In the drawing, I have shown but one arm, sists in an improvement in the mode of ap- 0, provided with a set of sails; but it is eviplying sails to vessels, as hereinafter fully dedent from the foregoing that each of the eight, scribed and subsequently pointed out in the more or less, arms that project from the shaft claim. B is to be provided with a pair of frames, D, In the accompanying drawing, the letter and sails E. The outer ends of the two frames A represents a portion of the hull of a vessel. D pertaining to each arm 0 may be connected B is the vertical shaft or mast, secured thereby a triangular sail or not, as may be desired; to in such manner that it can freely revolve which triangular sail, if used, would necessain the hull. From the shaft project above riiy connect with the rings a at the outer ends deck a series of radial horizontal or somewhat of the two sails E, which it joins. The disk inclined arms,GO,equidistantfrom each other, F, when used, will also serve to hold the inand all of substantially the same length. To ner ends of the arms 0, and may be made of each of these radial arms are hinged two metal or of any other suitable material.
