Hello Bill H.

At this stage of my planning , outriggers and leeboards are a little ahead for now. I have seen photos of small canoes with a small sail. Todd Bradshaws book on sailing rigs etc. is an excellent picture book with DIY instructions.
I was hoping for suggestions from anyone who has built a small double paddle sailing canoe.
