OK for you history types, I know the inner sail is the jib, and next the flying
jib, but what's the farthest out jib called?
Also, the v shaped sail in the area between the mainsail gaff and the mast;
what's it called?

Elf is very
much around. A few years
ago, I escorted her through dense fog on her way to
Mystic Seaport
for the wooden boat show because I had RADAR and she
did not. I am
not aware of the incident you mention, but we would
have to know
the details to draw any conclusions about WHY she
might have lost
the case. A kerosene lantern used as an anchor light
is perfectly
legal (annex 1 section 11 of international colregs)
unless there
is something more to the story. I can tell you that
seeing all of
Elf in the dark, regardless of anchor light, would be
a challenge.
She is about 35 feet on deck, but the boom hangs far
over the
stern, and she has a VERY long bowsprit. LOD is about
35 feet, and
LOA is... about 70 feet!
