Junk rig
Battened lugsail from Asia
The junk rig, also known as the Chinese lugsail, Chinese balanced lug sail, or sampan rig, is a type of sailing rig in which rigid members, called battens, span the full width of the sail and extend the sail forward of the mast. While relatively uncommon in use among modern production sailboats, the rig's advantages of easier use and lower maintenance for blue-water cruisers have been explored by individuals such as trans-Atlantic racer Herbert "Blondie" Hasler and author Annie Hill.
