Other than finishing the Mini Cup, I was thinking of a new project for the winter. Then I saw my unfinished kayak hanging in the garage :oops:

It was then that I saw this:

And this sail plan:

May be the next boat out of my garage
Brit, Kayakarl built a sail rig for one of his kayak. Instead of amas it has leeboards and is gaff rigged. The thing is a blast to sail, gibbing can be a bit tricky but once you get the hang of things it is hoot. Check with him, he is home today. Maybe he will post a photo.
Hi Brit

Pictures of a CLC Millcreek 13 built a few years ago. I do not have any pictures of it under sail, need to take more recent pictures. I’ve made a few changes, better rudder, shortened the mast, changed the tiller. Like Angie said it’s a blast to sail. In light wind it’s like sailing an easy chair. In 8 mph + winds it really scoots,

That's quite a bit of sail, there. Awesome.
