Yes, mine also came with a loose-footed mainsail and a small jib. I had trouble getting the main to set well without a boom and so added one. But then I had to lengthen the mast by about 18" to raise the rig to a safe height. The jib is so tiny that it's often not worth the trouble and in any decent wind I leave it ashore. Of course, a sloop rig on a peapod is a bit incongruous, and I may some day convert it to a balanced lug rig.
