A recent Sea Kayak mag had an article and plans for contructing a sail.
I'm not sure what a spinnaker is, so I don't know if that's what the
plans were for or not.

Primex, distributed by Deluge, makes a very simple triangular sail that
clamps to the fron of the cockpit. If you look at one (they have a web
site) you can probebly figure out how to make it. Then again, they only
want $125 for it.

Get back to us with what you end up making, OK?
