Default French Rig

I was at the DYC yesterday and saw a Nordica 20 that had supposedly been in
the South Pacific for 9 years before being sailed to Halifax via Panama.
This is the strangest rig I have ever seen. It was called a "French Rigged"
system.
It has a mast placed just aft of amidships and 2 roller furling headsails...
no boom, no mainsail. Apparently it sails... does anyone have any
experience with this type of set-up? Has anyone else ever heard of it?
