I have plans for a 14 ft boat very similar to the P15(14).
Anyway, the British naval architecht who drew up the plans I also
hired to draw up plans to rig it as a Chinese junk. I never
built it because, as Harry has already said, too many lines.
After extensive study and consideration I came to the conclusion
that a "balance lug" rig would be much simpler than the junk rig,
and just as effective. (You can batten a lug sail btw.)
Yours,
