Again, it probably has reversed normals or just invisible back faces. Does it render normally? -JH.

Its sails are not complete enclosed bags made of faces but open sheets of faces with loose edges all round. Thus the faces in the sails are clockwise as seen from one side and anticlockwise as seen from the other side, and they don't have "back faces". It seems that when Poser (at least my Poser 3) is making the ordinary quick view rather than a formal render, it ignores faces whose corners are listed clockwise as seen by the camera, as a quick way to ignore hidden faces.
