Abstract

A mast 1 is in the form of an egg-shaped closed loop that extends abeam of a hull 7. A boom 2 is supported on the mast 1 and extends upwardly from a lower, fore position on the bowsprit 4 to a higher, aft position above the stern (12, Fig 1). A lateen sail 3 of triangular form has its longer side attached to the boom 2 with its shorter sides depending from the boom 2. The free corner of the sail 3 may be tethered by ropes or sheets (14, Fig 1) to points on the sides of the hull 7 or deck such that it is positioned substantially above the centre line of the hull 7. The sail 3 can be fully deployed within the closed loop shape of the mast 1 without fouling the mast 1. This allows the sail 3 full and unrestricted deployment, results in exceptionally good sailing and provides swift and easy tacking.
