Nah, Walker, yawl is a two-mast sailboat with fore-and-aft Bermuda rigging 
where the after mast, known as the mizzen, is abaft the rudder-post.

Degree of tilt from center is list. Yaw is an unintended turn or swing of 
the head of a boat or ship (or aircraft or automobile) away from the 
intended line of travel.

DAMN, the snow don't stop!
