I think the rig might be classified as a staysl schooner - the after mast being taller and no mainsail on the forward mast. I'm not crazy about in-the-mast furling but having the rest of the sails on roller-furlers is very nice, particularly off the wind. Fair winds, John Hi ya’ll:

Please see our next posting for more insight on how "careful" we are being. We did a lot of things right on Monday, but we did a lot of things wrong, too. Learned a lot and added to our hard-earned store of knowledge, a lifelong task. Have since talked to the owner’s wife. the sailboat is a custom design without a standard rig.

We are being as careful as the Admiral can make us (that's me!). For instance, one of the reasons we are just now going out to play is that the Skipper (that's Larry) had a wound on his foot, and I wouldn't let him go swimming in the ocean until it was healed. Now it is healed. By the way, do you know what that funky-looking sail rig is called? Thanks, Muggs Thanks, Rick. We are being as careful as the Admiral can make us (that’s me!).

By the way, do you know what that funky-looking sail rig is called?
