Re: Calling all fitter/turners :)
Just wondering, Is it cheaper to buy one or do you have a special design which is not on the market. I know cruiser has a sail and of course there is the usual Hobie one.
Good luck anyway,
Geoff

What's going to stop the sail spinning/moving on that shaft?

Hi DanDantheFishoMan wrote:What's going to stop the sail spinning/moving on that shaft?
It will rotate, allowing more sail surface area against the side wind. Trial and error, but if it is an issue i can always limit the rotation by having shockcords running from the mounting plate edges to the front "tow" eyelet.
There's little room on the Outback to fit the PA sail on the bow, plus mine's got enough holes in it as it is
So the Mast receiver makes an obvious location for the sail... Hi Elm - i do drafting/design for the fenestration industry, kinda nerdy but i like it
