  • @EbbTideWindsurfing it was ok weather in souderton gave us more snow then up there

  • Hi attitude928,

    That's hard to figure out, we never ran it as a single sailed boat. We do think the 2nd (leeward) sail makes the same amount of power as the windward sail. Watch the upper masts bending, they are not supported or linked or each other from the booms on up.

  • We came up with the idea of the two sails to lower the center of effort (10'4" masts) so yes it does "hike" a lot less. The lateral resistance is the same as other boats but it does handle very well and turns tight because it's only 5' long beam to front blade.

  • Hey that's cool SM Diva22.

    How's the ice looking up there?

  • Does the boat hike less, skid more or handle differently than a single masted iceboat?

  • What percentage increase in speed does the 2nd rig afford you?

  • haha you passed my mountain house in this video!!! nice area looks like fun

  • Cool!!!.do you have a web site and can you sail on snow surface???

  • Hey ellestrob8,

    The boat is still in development, and if we get it on the market, it would take about another two years at the earliest.

  • Where can I order one?
