I think the Magnet plan also calls for this setup.

Magnet 112% has it as well indeed. Inner SO Glassfiber, Outer SO Carbon rod. "TheNewOneFromGoff&Benson" has it the other way around.

What's the thinking behind this?

Is it to keep the sail taught or to take the pressure off the sail in high winds?

Perhaps its not fibreglass afterall ...

but rather ... some new Element, mined from meteorites from Deep Space and machined into lengths of Bensontanium

Sorry ... that's all a bit naff & GWTW isn't it :oops:
