Ok, so I wasn't on a boat, but I was near the water and saw a bunch of
boats. I have a question about one I saw. It was a sailboat with only one
mast. It was not small... probably 35 or 40 feet long. It was strange for
a couple of reasons. First, the only mast didn't have any wires holding
it up, at least none I could see, but it was a huge (thick) mast. Second,
the mast was not in the "normal" position. It was really far forward,
almost to the bow. Third, and the truly strange, it looked like a big
windsurfer. I used to windsurf, so I know what that looks like. It had
two booms in a bow shape wrapped around the mast and going back to the
cockpit.

So, what is it? Is this a normal sailboat? Sorry if this is dumb
question.

If you were up here,I'd suggest a Nonsuch sailboat.
Not sure how popul;ar they are below the border. http://www.nonsuch.org/

Are the better, worse, or the same as a regular sailboat? Thanks, but having
lived (briefly) in the frozen north, I'll stick to warmer climates. lol
