There are two main variants of the kayak rig:

• the simpler one is stowed as a bundle, then extended when required and dropped into a vertical tube fitted to the kayak. This is ideal if you wish to put up a sail only occasionally in between paddling sessions (for details click here...)
• the more complex one has a rotating base that remains in place on the kayak, and the rig is raised and lowered as required. This is suitable if you want to spend most of your time sailing (for details click here).

For the best sailing experience, it is best to fit a rudder and centreboard, together with a pair of outrigger floats for stability.
