Folks, I run a sailing school here in WV. One of our students just purchased a Whaler Squall-9 The mast and boom system seems strange to me. The upper portion of the sail is made like it is a sock sail with the lower portion using ties.

It appears to be a modified lanteen rig. The problem is the lower mast section has a different O.D then the upper section. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Pictures are available if you wish.
