[quote=DamonLinkous]Like Andrew said, the terminology of modern "pole mounted" head sails has a lot of overlap.
Those in the picture I'm pretty sure are furling headsails. More common on beachcats is the spinnaker snuffer systems. But the spinnakers used on cats with snuffers are almost as flat as those shown.
The snuffer bag hangs under the pole and holds the chute ready to launch, no packing.

The snuffer systems get the sail up and trimmed really fast, like magic.
