: Hey Jeff
: i've seen a couple of those Hobie trimaran sailing kayak rigs on a
: little lake around here. Might want to study those. they look
: pretty cool. I think the mast rotates to furl or deploy the
: sail. and they've got pedal power too. Pretty neat but maybe a
: little complicated to set up and break down.
: I got the bug myself and started just today on a spars for a rig
: like the ones I found here:

: You might check out Kayaksailor.com too - same idea.

: I'm going to add a leeboard of some sort and probably a real
: rudder, or maybe just steer with a paddle for now.
: I'm trying to avoid the complication of outriggers for now to keep
: things more simple. I'm thinking about only a 25 sq. ft. sail on
: my 10 ft. camo kayak.
: Once I've got something to show I'll post some pics of my rig.

Hello Tim,
I purchased this book years ago and I believe it is still available. This is an excellent bathroom book when your dreaming about putting a sailing rig on your kayak and how to sail her.
Canoe Rig The essence and the art. written and illustrated by Todd E. Bradshaw. Wonderful illustrations.
