"I'm guessing sail rigs (commercially produced or home-brewed) have been discussed on this forum before - but to some of us new to the list....what rigs do people like to use? parafoil kites? simple spinnakers? paddle mounted rigs? Can the various rigs be used only directly downwind - or can you quarter slightly? Seems like this would be easier to do with kite style 'sails'." ... Keith I use a BSD 32 sq ft with outriggers for my Nautiraid Grand Raid II. It works beautifully either downwind or reaching. It is easy to handle, need very little trim to sail and all controls are easily accessible from the cockpit, even reefing. I use it either in a single or double configuration. I would recommend the rig.
