Riddle

You use me for my name, I'm not a breeze to tame, I'm fastest when I'm full and when it's cheap it sounds the same. You'll spot a nest near me (although I'm not a tree), the sea is fore, the sea is aft, it's all around, you see. What am I?

Choose an answer

A.A ship.
B.A mast.
C.A boat.
D.A sail.
Hint: It's a 2-word phrase with 5 letters, starting with "A".

Answer

A sail.

Why this is the answer

This word sounds identical to 'sale' and catches wind to move a boat faster when full.
