: This was a really neat video, I especially liked how the bow went
: under a wave for such a long time without disaster. I may have
: to move to where there are more waves.
: A minature version of Frank Smoot's Fan Sail might be really good
: for a bare kayak. perhaps the scooner rig as in the picture.

Btw, not to be picky, but it's a schooner rig and very likely not the best for a kayak, center of effort is too far aft.
