Fractional Rig vs. Mast Head Rig

Currently have a 26' day sailer. I am pondering a future purchase of a bigger sailboat for coastal cruising. I am looking at boats in the low to mid 30' range. Mostly I would be sailing solo so that is a factor.

I see some boats in this range have fractional rigs while others have mast head rigs.

Looking for some background data on what the real difference is.

Thanks,
Jim
