What are the names of the five sails on this aluminum yawl.

Spinaker, staysail, mainsail, mizzen staysail, mizzen.

What do I win?

Close...but not quite...If the mizzen had a forestay you couldn't tack
the boat.

Perhaps you have a different name for the mizzen staysail, but that's what
we call it. It does not have a fixed stay, per se, rather a wire luff that
is moved when the boat is tacked or gybed. It's still a mizzen staysail,
AFAIK.
