Sounds like a variation on ‘Blondie’ Hasler’s rig on ‘Jester’ (see Single-Handed Sailing by Richard Henderson) .

Also, here is a link to the differing types of junk rigs:

Dear Larry,
Thanks for your interest in my M-17 modifications.Most of it is in the advanced planning stages and is predicated mainly on securing reasonable pricing on the carbon fibre componants that comprise the rather unorthodox rig. My reasons for making these changes are to radically reduce the effort to sail the boat and to have infinate control of the sail area at all times. Most ot these ideas come from a master micro cruiser sailor that has crossed the pond many times in boats smaller than mine. In a couple of  weeks I'll be able to share alot more information.
