Catboats on Oyster Bay, Long Island, by Archibald Cary Smith. he subject vessels in this work are two cat-rigged craft known as “sandbaggers”. The cat-rig features a single mast situated well forward, near the bow, and carries only a large single sail with no standing rigging. “Archie” Smith was an early builder of these “sandbaggers”, so named for the movable sandbags they carried for ballast.
