She’s the Nonsuch, a square rigged ketch replica of the vessel that first sailed into Hudson Bay in 1668-1669. Though she doesn’t sail anymore you can still see her in the Manitoba Museum in Winnipeg. Though ketches today are almost entirely fore-and-aft rigged, they were pretty commonly square-rigged in the 17th century.
