The answer to the clue, Topsail without its gem is OPAL.
Explanation
The answer to the Topsail without its gem is OPAL.
A "topsail" is a type of sail on a ship. The word "topsail" contains the letters "opal" within it, which is a type of gem. The clue instructs us to consider the word "topsail" without its "gem," meaning we should remove the letters "opal" from "topsail." When we do this, we are left with "t-sil."

Here, we simply identify "opal" as the gem within the word "topsail" and consider "opal" itself as the answer to the clue. This clever wordplay challenges solvers to think about words and their components in a different way, highlighting the enjoyment and mental exercise that crossword puzzles provide.
