I've seen pictures of my boat with the same sail take back
when the boat was first produced in the early 70's. I was
hoping someone else would know the answer and refresh
my memory. If I can track dwon Bruce King in Maine,
perhaps I can ask him the reason for the design of this
sail.

Don't wear yourself out too much, Amigo, I suspect that sail was a
special order from a guy who liked to see where he was going and not
needing to post a crewmember on permanent lookout duty. Let's just
call it a highcut mizzen staysail. I never have seen one like it
before.
Thanks for stirring up some good action with your post!
