How come they are calling this a ketch? I'd call it a brigantine.

From the conidition below decks it seems this BS troop is to lazy for

Why do they have flat feet or something?

Right you are, looks to me like the main yard is carrying a
square sail.... if it's got a main course then it's not a
fore-n-aft rig. But the foreward mast is taller, the forward
gaff sail is bigger, than the aft ones... and most the
historic replicas are called 'topsail schooners' so maybe
they thought this should be a 'topsail ketch.'

Those wacky Balts, I suppose they could call it whatever
they liked back in those days. After all, they didn't have
to answer to a bunch of smart-ass lap-top toting
know-it-alls every time they built a boat!
