Marconi rig?

I am reading an american book on sailing and the author uses the expression "Marconi" rig. Unfortunatly there is not a picture of the boat. He also uses "Bermudian", which is what I thought a Marconi was. Is there any difference between the two?

While I am at it, does anyone know the origin of "vang"? It sounds vaguely Saxon to me.
