The SailRig™ : transform your kayak into a trimaran. Of course, you are not going to cross the Atlantic with it, but you'll cover a lot of distance and you'll have a lot of fun !

Length of the "amas" (floats) : 3.02 m, beam of the "akas" (crossbeams) : 3.05 m, weight : 13.6 kg. Two sails are available: 3.72 m2 ou 5.12 m2.

The SailRig™ MK2 matches the effortless performance of the original, but features simplified construction and easier kayak attachment. The SailRig™ MK2 is adaptable to almost every kayak and canoe in our catalogue, and many other production kayaks as well. Mounted on a single kayak, the acceleration is neck-snapping, with good handling upwind and down and 9-knot potential. Ten-foot beam gives you monolithic stability (and thus sail carrying power with no hiking out), but the whole rig can be dismantled for cartopping in a half-hour. The SailRig™ MK2 components weigh only about 30lbs total.

While the CLC SailRig™-equipped kayak is a proper sailboat by any measure, the beauty of the design is that you get your kayak back when you're done sailing. With the SailRig™ removed, all that's left are four eyebolts and an easily hidden mast step: no bulky reinforcements or heavy gear. No worries if the wind dies, because the aka (crossbeam) spacing permits a paddling stroke with the SailRig™ in place.

Fast sailing kayak-trimarans open up all sorts of adventure possibilities. The compact kayak and rig can be cartopped to some far-flung archipelago, assembled on the beach, loaded with gear, and sailed 40+ miles in eight hours. If the wind dies, you paddle. In good weather, long crossings can be contemplated, and a theoretical voyage might carry you 250 miles or more in six days.

The SailRig™ complete kit includes : the plans, building manual, all wood parts cut to size, wood laminates for the "akas" with the lamination mold, the pivoting daggerboard, hardware, epoxy, fiberglass and mast in two parts.
