Dunno about a new one, but a sail kit for the porta-bote is on ebay now.


reportedly, the porta-bote is a far better dinghy than sailboat.

Of that I'm sure. But the new improved sailkit has yet to be tested by anyone
other than Porta-bote. It's due out at the end of this month.

Well, do you think the 10 or 12 would plane with a 6HP and 2 people?

Not if your fat ass is one of them. Maybe a 60HP

He said that with the 6HP and with 3 adults, she'd do 12-14 knots

and with just me upwards of 20 knots under mild
