I do like the cut of her jib She answers smartly to the wheel In strong wind she is a flyer. She kicks up the waves this flyer As past the boards they go and jib Its my trick to be at the wheel I stands me watch this night at wheel Now sure shes controlled this flyer Winds strong in the leech of the jib It gives me hard time at the wheel In cloudless night shes a flyer

Multiple meanings lie within this clever write. Is the she of your topic a sailboat or a lady? There is no doubt she holds your attention, captures your imagination, and is admired for her swiftness and power.
AHA! Perhaps this is why ships are called "she".

Everything Soft said. Multi-faceted depending on what light you hold /'/her/'/ up to.
Well done!
