Default What type of sail rig is this?

... a Freedom 44 cat ketch, added a jib to
the front of his boat making it...


From my not too reliable memory I think the Freedom 44 was a cat ketch

because the area of the forward sail was greater than the area of the
after sail. So I'd guess it becomes a ketch when the jib is added.
If the areas had been equal I think Hoyt would have called it a cat
schooner...
