Actually, one more question for folks. I have not seen a clew/foot arrangement like the one on the new-to-me sail. It has what appears to be a foot rope running the length of the foot, but it has a separate slug connected to the clew itself (which I have only seen on open-footed sails). Am I right in interpreting is likely still a closed-footed sail? Photo attached.
