A ship coming in or going out of port , with her ordinary sails , and perhaps two of three studding-sails , is commonly said to be under full sail ; but a ship never has all her sail upon her , except when she has a light , steady breeze , very nearly , but not quite , dead aft , and so regular that it can be trusted , and is likely to last for some time .
