That's just one more reason so many of us would rather pound sand or mow the lawn (literally) than use big sails, even though big sails would more than double our planing time.


And that is just another reason for you to take an ABK camp. Stop doing all the work and let the wind do it for you. Learn Sail-Chi and stop working so hard.

Unless you are a beginner & dropping the sail all the time or dealing with a full blown race sail, the weight of the sail should not be a major issue. If there is not enough wind to support a large sail, then go pound sand or SUP.

Hi !

I just unrigged everything. My boom (including uphaul line) weight 4 kg. It seems a bit high to me.
