Hi everybody, I'm a part-time lurker of this list. I live in Seattle and paddle a Pygmy Coho. I also have a baidarka which I rarely use. About two years ago I decided I'd get more use from the baidarka if I turned it into a sailing catamaran. So, I started on the kayak sailing rig conversion by CLC as published in Wooden Boat. I never finished, and I'm about to finish a catamaran for sailing, so I would like to clean up and get rid of the parts. I have finished the outriggers, a mast, and a sail. The sail uses a sprit rig. I will give the finished parts to someone in Western Washington who promises to not sell it, and sail it on Lake Union (so I can see), once a year. I also have a Greenland storm paddle, but the blades are too narrow. I can't get enough power into the water. If you want to try it, please let me know. I'll give it to someone who can use it.
