TOPIC: SAILS ON KAYAKS
SAILS ON KAYAKS 6 months, 1 week ago #171
|
My latest add on to my Klepper Aerius 2 is the KAYAKSAILOR SAIL by Kuvia LLC. It appears to be really made for hard shells but can with a little thought be fitted to any craft. I paddle and sail from the rear seat of the Aerius so i had to make my own design which is simple and cheap or should i say inexpensive. It consists of two cross pieces of wood which are held onto the Klepper coaming with "J" clamps (from klepper), the sail mount is bolted to the front cross piece and the sail cross tube which also holds the KAYAKSAILOR LEE BOARDS is clamped to the rear cross member, i hope the photo helps. KAYAKSAILOR have now come out with the small jib they have been developing and testing for some time, it should be a good addition to their rig.

I have just received a JIB sail from KAYAKSAILOR and it is very well thought out and all the parts are well made from good materials, my local lake is still frozen and as we have now slipped back to normal temps it will be a few weeks before i try it for real, but i am absolutly certain it will be a great asset for those of us who sail and paddle our boats. This is a sail outfit that everone should consider, you can still paddle even when it is raised and this gives extra speed.
