Traveling with a folded Greenland II and a sail rig around europe is impractical unless you hire porters. .... I would also echo what a previous poster said: Kayaks do not sail very efficiently. They are very slow up-wind to broad reach. They can move pretty well down wind given you have enough wind. snip I've used a Spirit Sail (http://www.spiritsails.com/home.shtm) with my kayak, but mostly for an afternoon's diversion and entirely downwind. I took it down when paddling upwind. The good part is that it is light weight and compact... which may be useful in the right conditions. -- cheers, Stephen |
