Hi
I saw on many ships spritsail on bowsprit , but I don't understand how did they open that sail they are usually above martingale and bobstay. I saw on Wikipedia that spritsails are not so common they kick them out because jibs, it Is logical because if you put martingales and bobstay they could not be there, and especially sail couldn't be open.
Can somebody explain it to me like I said if you look at many models they have spritsail and below martingales no way you could open that sail only in almost horizontal position

Thanks well explained I was confused because watching it didn't make sense to have sprit sail.
But when I look at many models they have full rigged spritsail on bows but is obviously you can open that sail because all the lines underneath it
