that's a beauty. a lot of sail, no? I see so many design elements--Oughtred, bolger, it's sort of like a (slightly) stretched Townie, definitely albert strange/rushton rig elements.

very cool, love it. (is it a Puget sound boat? I think you'd have to reef often here on the E. Coast)

shraps1 yes a lot of sail, but has great number of downsizing options, right down to the mizzen alone (reefed) in the central mast step. Beautifully balanced and tolerates a lot of breeze. Pics can be seen on Ross' website baysidewoodenboats

would that be a gaff rig or a jugger rig?

It's an aussie designed boat isn't it? I think i've seen the name Lillistone in the Aussie Amateur Boat Builder mag. That is a beauty and it does look like a ton of canvas up but seems to be fine with it. beautiful boat
