Those sails aren't doing anything.

  1. Old style stay-sails. Used to reduce roll and add stability

  2. Uh huh, when that light weight and inconsequential water wants to push that boat arround, the super strong air will push back on that big enough sail.

      With big-engined boats, not so much need.
