What is the difference between a clipper ship and a schooner?

A clipper and a schooner were of different sizes and had different style rigging. The terms schooner and clipper represent two different ways to describe a sailing vessel. The word 'schooner' refers to the way a vessel's masts and sails are set up. A schooner is a vessel with at least two masts (some Great Lakes schooners had up to seven) and the foremast is usually smaller or sometimes the same size as the main mast. The schooner's sails are primarily rigged fore'n'aft though some schooners may have square sails rigged on the foremast as well, or they may have square tops'ls on the fore or both masts. The term 'ship' refers to a saling vessel that has at least 3 masts and has square sails rigged on all 3 masts.
