Didn't think so. The latest Chinese vessel with stats is the shachuan, which pre-dates the junks by several hundred years. The junks evolved out of that vessel, but it existed circa 800 c.e., whereas the proper junks didn't exist for another 200-300 years.
True -- but IMHO the distinction isn't so much as to make much of a difference in game terms. The shachuan should be in the ball park.

Or, there's a junk in GURPS WW II "Motor Pool" (also for 3rd ed.)
