: I have looked at some manufactures designs for this (not critizing ANY one in
: particular here, don't want to go down that road). I feel they are massive
: things, not at all what I want. And I figure the only way to get a light
: fleixble rig that I want is to build it myself (and I am not talking about
: those kite sort of sails that you kinda hold up and can only use down
: wind). I haven't worked all the bugs out of my design (yet!!). And I
: figure it is going to have to be a pretty "active" system with
: the paddle doing a lot of the work of a sponson, so my rig will not be a
: stable enough rig for leisure sailing. Anyone out there know a source for
: something a little less massive than the CLC rig??

www.baloghsaildesigns.com sells a sail and outrigger (inflatable) system that can be stowed on board your kayak. I found this only while surfing and do not have any knowledge as to its performance.
