Has this new rig by Gary Hoyt been posted?

Pretty interesting idea. Alot like a junk rig but with the sail offset from the mast so it's always in free air, no "bad tack". The boat sails nicely in the video. What I would like to see is the same boat with a conventional sloop rig sailing alongside.

How much faster would this rig be?
