If I recall the unstayed masts on Team Philips rotated at the base: This was a huge engineering problem to solve. What if a short sleeve, lets say a 10% height outer sleeve, was placed such that the modified wing mast plus soft sail rotated inside it? It could then have some stays, and not be such an engineering nightmare. Who has done this already?
