Fascinating.  Beneteau are developing this wing sail. 

Note no mention of any junk rig heritage!

• Based on the junk rig but borrowing from experimenters' more sophisticated developments? 
  
• Same advantages of the junk rig? 
  
• Will Beneteau have the technology and capital to make their "junk rig" mainstream? 

Anyway I would like one for Xmas!!! Maybe Beneteau will sell the battens separately!
