Clamp-on sail rig converts your canoe into a sailboat in minutes. Fun & practical. Available stabilizer outriggers (pontoons on arms) to prevent tipping. Fast, portable, and comfortable. Canoe sailing is a popular sport with a long history. This modern rig makes it easy and hassle free. Rig folds to less than 4-foot-long package for easy storage. Plenty of room for passengers. No damage to canoe. How-to-sail instructions included. It sails crosswind, downwind and tacks into the wind.
Enjoy the thrilling power of nature's own wonderful wind. Feel that power in the tug of the sail on the rope in your hand, and the throb of the steering oar in your other hand as its blade knifes through the rushing water. You make slight adjustments of steering-oar angle and the sailing canoe instantly responds like a well-trained roping horse. See your outrigger pontoon swooshing in the water like a little torpedo, sending a miniature wake out behind it. Sailing your canoe, you'll enjoy the quiet of a motorless boat -- the only sound is the bump, bump, bump of the canoe hull against the water as it slaps the waves.

Canoe sail kit with the best stabilizer pontoons on the market -- streamlined hydrodynamic pontoons! (For standard kit without pontoons see item 1001 (click). or with inflatable pontoons, item 1000.)
Our standard kits include EVERYTHING essential to sail a canoe except lifejackets, wind and water. Installs quickly on your canoe with included clamps -- no drilling, no gluing, no modification of your canoe -- and removes just as easily. Many options, upgrades & accessories available to tailor your sail kit order just the way you want it. Deluxe verion available. Fits any canoe; if your canoe is really unusual, let us know so we can be sure your kit will be suitable. Call or email Jim (1-978-263-7598, or Jim@SailboatsToGo.com) for any help needed or to place a phone order. No one offers as many canoe sail kit options or as much personal help as SailboatsToGo.
Complete: Some other suppliers will offer a kit that is just a sail, mast and boom and maybe some rope and call it a "canoe sail kit." But you can't sail with just that. You also need leeboards (necessary to counteract side-slip when sailing in any direction other than straight down wind), steering, mast step (socket), outrigger pontoons, and clamps and crossbars to attach all of this to your canoe. This kit includes all the above! Every part needed to convert your canoe into a fully functional sailboat is included and it all clamps on easily, comes off again easily and folds away for easy transport and storage.
Versatile Stabilizers Not Just for Sailing: The stabilizer pontoon (outrigger) system included with this kit is a $319 value that will prove equally useful when not sailing. Staying right-side-up is a great idea when you paddle, row or motor your canoe as well. Stabilizer pontoons are especially valuable when you fish, swim, picnic or camp with your canoe. You can use the stabilizers without the rest of the sail kit whenever you want. The stabilizers adjust up-down with a lever-lock mechanism and in-out with a spring button system.
Folds: This kit folds for compact storage and easy inside-the-trunk transporting. When folded, the entire kit, including the mast, boom, and spar , fits in an optional carry-bag that measures just 1'x1'x4'. That's right -- the entire folded kit fits easily in a bag no bigger than a golf club travel-cover bag. Weight is just 44 lbs. including the stabilizer system and every other part mentioned above.
Sail Choices: Pick out any of our sail designs to be included with your kit. Any of the nylon sails are NO EXTRA CHARGE. Choose plain white, dazzling multi-color, soothing 2-tone blue or be a pirate with our black sail sporting a skull and crossbones! Sail color page: Click Here. Tell us your sail color scheme choice in your order comments please. A Dacron sail can be substituted for a small additional charge in white or colors. Or, a high-tech Batwing sail can be substituted at a substantial upcharge.
Consider the Deluxe Package: Consider getting this kit in the deluxe package version (item 1008), for a canoe sail kit with larger sail and other goodies packaged at a discount price.
Options: You can build your own package by putting this item 999 into your cart and then adding options and upgrades one-by-one to your order to customize your kit to your needs, preferences and budget. See the options, upgrades & accessories page.
Also includes Jim's assembly instructions with close-up photographs and detailed narrative plus his how-to-sail guide, all free and only SailboatsToGo offers this. Read about advantages of buying from SailboatsToGo here.
Quality Construction and Good Warranty: This kit is engineered and built to last and be problem-free. One-year parts & labor warranty (5 years on the floats). All metal parts are corrosion resistant -- either anodized aluminum, stainless steel or brass. The kit is so reliable, many years we have no warranty claims at all -- zero! And we've been doing this since 2003.
Already have a stabilizer? If you already have a stabilizer from us or Spring Creek, see item 1017.
Package deal with larger sail, heavy duty mast and no other upgrades: item 1004.
Shipping: Because the kit is so compact and light, (Shipping dimensions 48" x 12" x 12". 44 lbs.) it goes by regular UPS ground. And, we are happy to ship worldwide. Shipping cost to many countries is in the $100 - $200 range. Our foreign customers can email for a shipping quote or just place the order online and we will add the shipping cost to the order later, after emailing you a quote and getting your approval.
Canoe sail rig with inflatable stabilizer floats Everything needed to make your canoe into a sailboat INCLUDING the optional inflatable stabilizer floats and outrigger arms to help keep you from capsizing when the wind blows hard. Our other canoe sail kits with stabilizers have the rigid, Hydrodynamic stabilizer floats. Only this kit has our new improved inflatable stabilizer floats for enhanced portability and lower price.
The inflatable stabilizer floats are our new thick-skin floats that hold their shape better even when driven hard through the water. And now they are on mounting hardware that lets you adjust them up or down and in or out. They are not quite the equal of the rigid hydrodynamic floats (not as streamlined and therefore a bit more drag in high wind) but they have the advantages of greater portability, compact storage and lower price.
Options to consider adding:
Upgrade to larger sail and/or heavy duty mast(item 5011 and/or dacron sail. Add a heavy duty carry bag with shoulder strap (item 6007 . Add a High Seat for a more flexible seating position (item 1007) giving you more ability to balance the canoe. Add waterproof floating cellphone case for the safety of secure communications.

Canoe Sail Rig w/out Stabilizer Floats Same as rig with stabilizer floats except, um, no stabilizer floats. Some canoes are stable enough, some sailors are skilled enough, and some waters are safe enough so that stabilizer floats are not always needed. And some canoes already have stabilizers, of course. Front crossbar will be 40" (good for 99% of canoes) unless you email us and request different. Long works on narrow canoe but short could be a problem on a wide canoe. See the canoe sail kit upgrades page for list of available upgrades and options. Video Click Here If you already have a Spring Creek or Sailboats To Go stabilizer, see item 1017. Shipping dimensions 48" x 10" x 10". 37 lbs.

Included parts: (1) Front crossbar extension or longer front crossbar. (2) Side rails, which clamp onto your front crossbar to make a U-shaped front assembly. (3) Leeboard mounts. (4) longer center section for rear crossbar with bolts and star knobs. (5) right-angle piece for rear crossbar. (6) Straps.

Canoe Sail Kit w/ 55 SF Sail and Hydrodynamic Floats Complete canoe sail kit like the item 999, but with our bigger sail and taller, stronger mast. Includes hydrodynamic stabilizer floats, leeboards, steering unit and steering oar plus how-to-sail instructions, assembly instructions and all necessary hardware and ropes.

MORE DETAILS CLICK HERE
To upgrade your order to this item in the "square post" version add item 1031 (click).
The square post version is a bit more costly, but it's worth it: More convenient to do the up-down adjustment of the floats with the square-post version and the square posts automatically align the floats to point straight ahead.
Color choices: CLICK HERE (Specify color choice in comments section of checkout page). Best to give first choice and second choice as availability varies.

A great canoe sailing or rowing accessory. Two benefits: (1) Gives you a high, wide bench seat so you can easily shift your weight side to side to counterbalance the force of the wind and keep the canoe upright; (2) Lets you put your seat where you want it, to improve bow-to-stern balance, especially good for solo sailing to keep the bow down. When you have the freedom to shift your weight all the way over to the windward side and even a little beyond, it adds a whole new dimension to canoe sailing. Your skill in balancing the canoe will add to your speed and your fun. Also works great as a table or workbench on the water.
Approx 8" wide and either 36" or 40" long (tell us in the order comments space if you have a preference) .
Made of aluminum (wood version no longer offered). Top side is covered with a non-absorbent resilient foam, for comfort and to make it not slippery.
Clamps to gunwales with its own built-in gunwale clamps (included) on its underside. Does not need, and does not include, a crossbar.
Caution: Greater risk of capsizing due to higher center of gravity when someone is sitting on this seat. Stabilizer pontoons recommended.

MyCanoe Duo Folding Canoe and Sail Kit - free shipping!
A fantastic savings on our item 1009 sail kit PLUS the MyCanoe Duo folding canoe. Free shipping on both! Saves you $45 on sail kit shipping alone. We are authorized MyCanoe dealers. Same warranty as if you bought direct from manufacturer. Further bonus: Free sail kit bag (item 6007) a $39 value. (We know the photo of the canoe under sail is not the Duo. Sorry about that!)
This is a complete sailing canoe package.
Canoe is not returnable. Note: The canoe will be shipped from MyCanoe. If they charge us sales tax on your order, we will charge your card later as a separate transaction for that. Our checkout proces will only charge tax on Massachusetts delivery addresses.
All the usual upgrades and accessories are available to add to your order to make it extra special. Consider the taller heavy duty mast, for more headroom under the boom, greater strength, and the possibility of using the larger 55 SF sail option. Or consider upgrading now to both the larger sail and taller/stronger mast. And don't forget to consider the slip-on wheels for easy launching from beach or ramp that will protect your hull.

MyCanoe Duo Origami Folding Canoe A Folding canoe that goes anywhere!
MyCanoe is an award winning, lightweight, TUV certified, and patented origami folding canoe. It turns into a beautiful canoe in 10 minutes. Its full sized 14.5 ft with two seats are perfect for sharing with family and friends for a quick trip to water. It folds back to a 37 x 25 inch case, travels in a carrying case, and it fits in most small sedans so it'll be ready for adventure when you are.
The body of the MyCanoe is made from a custom polypropylene with a 15 year UV treatment that is rated 20,000 folds.
We are authorized MyCanoe dealers. Same warranty as if you bought direct from manufacturer. Note: The canoe will be shipped from MyCanoe. If they charge us sales tax on your order, we will charge your card later as a separate transaction for that. Our checkout process will only charge tax on Massachusetts delivery addresses.
Inflatable stabilizer floats and arms -white Inflatable stabilizer floats with float arms that slide into the front crossbar of any of our sail kits.
Don't have a pump? We have a good one for a low price: Click here (item 3007). But inflation by mouth also works well-- about 8 puffs.
Combine this with a Crossbar and clamps for a complete stabilizer system if you don't have a sail kit.
Rugged, yet more portable than our other stabilizer floats because they deflate. Very puncture resistant and they inflate quickly and easily a few strokes of the pump or puffs by mouth. This item is not designed with the up/down adjustment. This item is just floats and arms for adding to a sail kit, rowing setup, or other product that already has crossbar for them to slide into. For sailing, you generally use floats in all-the-way-up position anyway, so if that's the intended use of your stabilizers, you don't need up/down adjustment. But we can upgrade to a version with up-down adjustment for $20 more. Just put a note in the order comments. Click Here for Video.
Our item 1006 rigid stabilizer perform better in some respects but are not as portable and compact to store.
Free shipping applies if ordered with other things. If ordered alone, we will add $15 shipping when we process the order.
This is our own house-brand product and if a much improved product, in that the floats have thicker skin and 3-point attachment system so they hold their shape better and resist tipping forward or backward.
Customer writes: 'I LOVE IT'
Hi Jim!
Sailed for the third time on the setup today. Sails GREAT! I LOVE IT!
Very lively winds today, 12-16 knots at times. Boat handles great under sail, glad I got the inflatable stabilizers for sailing solo. (The hydrodynamic ones would be great but I needed everything to be RV packable.)
\
Thanks,
Frank K. (put our sail kit on a Sevylor XK17 inflatable kayak)

Upgrade stabilizer floats from inflatable to hydrodynamic Add this item to your cart only if you are also buying a sail kit that normally comes with inflatable floats. This item deletes the inflatable floats from your product and adds the hydrodynamic floats (hard plastic streamlined floats with up/down adjustment). It charges you only the difference in price between these two float styles.
Canoe Sail Rig For Stabilizer Owners If you already own a stabilizer from us or Spring Creek this is the item to order. It is the complete canoe sail kit with 45 SF nylon sail, minus the stabilizer floats, front crossbar and its gunwale clamps (minus the components of the stabilizer you already own, in other words). To upgrade to larger sail and heavy duty mast add item 5011. Swap mast only for heavy duty is item 5016, custom dacron sail (item 5017 for 45 SF or item 5060 for 55 SF dacron with mast upgrade included).
Extras to consider: High seat (item 1007), Carry bag (item 6007), waterproof floating cellphone case (item 5015). The item 6007 carrybag is a HUGE convenience and you'll be impressed with the quality of it. Leeboard upgrade (item 5092). Extra steering oar is item 5031 -- we like sailing with two steering oars because (a) we prefer steering with the oar on the downwind side, and with an oar on each side we don't have to move it from one side to the other and (b) for maneuvering in close quarters around other boats, a dock or swimmers, we can propel the boat short distances using the two steering oars together -- no need to pick up a paddle.
Shipment to UK, Europe, Japan is item 6009.

Canoe Side Rudder - complete with mount and hiking stick
Now you can use a conventional rudder even on a canoe and it doesn't have to be a square back canoe. Video: Click Here.
This rudder unit attaches like a canoe motor mount: Crossbar clamps across the gunwales and sticks out on one side, and rudder pivots off the crossbar. This is the complete unit: crossbar, rudder mount, gunwale clamps, rudder, tiller and hiking stick. Kick-up blade.
Canoe side rudder - substitute for steering oar Use this item to delete the steering oar unit and steering oar from a canoe sail kit you are ordering today and substitute in the complete side rudder unit. This item number can only be used with a canoe sail kit purchase. We like sailing with a steering oar. But we know some prefer a conventional rudder. The advantage of the rudder is less arm effort, less drag. The advantage of the steering oar is lower cost and you have steering control even if the boat loses forward momentum. Also, the steering oar system is more portable (breaks down smaller and weighs less.)
This rudder unit attaches like a canoe motor mount: Crossbar clamps across the gunwales and sticks out on one side, and rudder pivots off the crossbar. This is the complete unit: crossbar, rudder mount, gunwale clamps, rudder, tiller and hiking stick. Kick-up blade. The steering oar system will be deleted from your order.
Side Rudder to be used with steering oar crossbar If you already have or are ordering the complete canoe sail kit and want to have the additional option of steering by side rudder, order this item. It comes with a rudder mount that attaches to the steering oar crossbar of the canoe sail kit. It does not have its own crossbar and gunwale clamps (see item 1018 for unit with its own crossbar and clamps). It does not prevent use of the steering oar. Selecting this item will not delete anything from a canoe sail kit ordered at the same time (it is not a substitution item - see item 1019 to get rudder as a substitution).

16' folding Pakboats Pakcanoe 160 with deluxe sail kit and stabilizers This is a fully capable 16' canoe from Pakboats that folds and comes apart to a size that will fit in your trunk. (See other listings for the 16.5 and the 14). Pakcanoes are often used on wilderness expeditions down wild rivers, so you know they're tough. We flew ours to the Caribbean and went sailing with it. The Pakcanoe sells for $2185 list and our deluxe sail kit for Pakboats is $949 by itself, including our best Hydrodynamic stabilizer floats and heavy-duty bag. So, the package price is quite a savings.
Other Pakcanoe models available as a package at similar discount. Email jim@sailboatstogo.com.
This Pakboats Canoe Sail Kit Deluxe Package has different accessories and upgrades from the regular canoe deluxe package, but at its heart it is the same basic kit. So it will transfer to a regular canoe.
All the same options and upgrades will work (e.g. wheels, Neil Pryde sail, Batwing, unbreakable leeboards) so browse the upgrades and accessories page to see if you want to add to this package.

NuCanoe Sail kit with inflatable stabilizers Sail kit for the NuCanoe with inflatable stabilizer pontoons. No drilling or other modification of your boat required. See item 1028 for rigid pontoon version. Inflatable pontoons are more portable and lower in price. They work well. However, they are not adjustable vertically, which is no issue for sailing (you would have them all the way up regardless) but perhaps a drawback if you also wanted to use them for fishing. Accessories and upgrades to consider: Carry bag (item 6007), heavy duty mast, Dacron sail, larger sail (item 5011). Includes: Sail, mast, spars, leeboards, steering and all necessary straps, hardware and instructions. Video and more info click here

Sail kit for NuCanoe with Hydrodynamic Stabilizers Sail kit for the NuCanoe with rigid plastic stabilizer pontoons. No drilling or other modification of your boat required. See item 1027 for inflatable pontoon version. Pontoons adjust vertically, which is no benefit for sailing (you would have them all the way up regardless) but perhaps a benefit if you also want to use them for fishing. Accessories and upgrades to consider: Carry bag (item 6007), heavy duty mast, Dacron sail, larger sail (item 5011). Includes: Sail, mast, spars, leeboards, steering and all necessary straps, hardware and instructions. Video and more info click here

NuCanoe Sail Kit with No Stabilizer Pontoons We recommend stabilizer pontoons when sailing the NuCanoe. However, we did fine without them sailing solo in moderate conditions with the larger model NuCanoe. With a second person aboard, we needed the stabilizers because there is not enough freeboard. See item 1027 or item 1028 for additional details (except for pontoons, it's the same kit). Video and more info click here

Stabilizer pontoons for NuCanoe - Hydrodynamic Stabilizer pontoons attach to the forward seat anchor points of your NuCanoe and vastly enhance stability. The hydrodynamic pontoons are strong and streamlined, appropriate even for motoring or sailing. Adjust in, out, up and down. If you later buy our sail kit, we'll credit you for the parts you already have and omit them from your sail kit. Float colors: Gray is the default. If you prefer red, yellow or mango please email us to let us know immediately after ordering. Consider getting a carry bag (item 3031) too. Similar products at lower cost: item 1031 (ethafoam stabilizer), item 1032 (inflatable stabilizer).
Canoe sail kit options, upgrades and accessories page: Click Here.
Upgrade Hydrodynamic Stabilizer Order to Square Posts
Upgrade your stabilizer order to square posts and the simple one-hand-operated star-knob clamp instead of lever locks.
Square posts mean that your floats are always perfectly alighed at right-angle to your float arms. And the up-down adjustment is much easier to do. Result: More convenient set-up and adjustment; more secure holding of float alignment when you are moving along.
This item can only be purchased in conjunction with an order for a hydrodynamic stabilizer (complete system or just floats and arms). Its low price reflects a credit for deleting the round-post arms in your order. If, on the other hand, you are wanting to upgrade to square posts on a pair of round-post floats and arms you already have, order item 1037 instead. With #1037, you'll get a pair of square posts that fit over your round ones and accept the same pin you already have to secure them to the float plus you'll get a pair of arms fitted with the square-post clamp.
NuCanoe Stabilizer Pontoons - Inflatable Stabilizer pontoons attach to the forward seat anchor points of your NuCanoe and vastly enhance stability. The inflatable pontoons are strong, streamlined and very portable, appropriate even for motoring or sailing. Adjust in, out, up and down. If you later buy our sail kit, we'll credit you for the parts you already have and omit them from your sail kit. Float color: Light gray (almost white) with black trim. Consider the item 3031 carry bag too.

These are OEM for Radisson Canoes but will work fine on any canoe.
14' Pakcanoe with Deluxe Sail Kit Including Stabilizers Just like item 1023 except the canoe is the Pakcanoe 140.
Here is how Pakboats describes it: "PakCanoe 140 is a solo canoe for small to medium size paddlers who do not need to pack a large amount of gear and supplies. Very nimble in tight places, it is excellent for small creeks where intricate maneuvering is needed. Like its larger siblings, the 140 performs well on flatwater as well as challenging whitewater." Of course, you're not going to sail it on "small creeks." But you'll enjoy it with the sail on other bodies of water where you have room to run!

conversion kit for canoe rig to kayak Convert our canoe sail kit to kayak sailing -- includes side rails with extensions, leeboard mounts on the side rails, foam blocks, straps and extensions. No stabilizers included because it is assumed you have those from your canoe sail kit. Converts the canoe sail kit into the item 6004 strap-on "Any Kayak" sail kit. Please describe your kayak in the order comments (one person or 2, brand and model).
If you want to convert to a bolt-on rig, not a strap-on rig, then you need item 5106 instead (assuming your canoe rig is the H-type). Request instructions in the order comments for the bolt-on kayak rig.

Book On Learning To Sail -- Jim's Favorite (USED) We've read them all (almost) and this is the best "How-To-Sail-For- Beginners" type book out there. It's the one used by the Annapolis Sailing School. Title: "Learning to Sail." It's got one female author and one male author, which for a "how-to" book is a good thing.
Jim Luckett says: "It's clear, well written, well illustrated, and correct."
Condition is used, but good.
We do provide "How To Sail" instructions (written and illustrated by Jim himself) with our sail kits, plans, and sailboats, but if you like to have things explained 2 different ways to help make them stick, read this book too. Paperback.

Sail Kit for Pakboats SailboatsToGo folding portable sail kit for Pakboats. Video Link. This is the sail kit only (no boat, no stabilizer floats). Pakboats are a line of folding canoes and kayaks with interior aluminum frame, non-inflatable PVC skin, and inflatable tubes between the frame and skin. Under sail, they're fast and go great to windward. If you're skeptical of inflatables, but want extreme portability, this may be the boat for you.
The sail kit includes everything you need to "sailboatize" a pakboat: sail, mast, leeboards, steering oar, framework to hold it all together and clamps to clamp it to the pakboat. This is the basic kit with one steering oar, 45 SF nylon sail & no stabilizer floats. See also deluxe package item 3026. We strongly recommend adding our hydrodynamic stabilizers (item 1006) or our inflatable stabilizers (item 1013) to this. Or, get the deluxe package that includes stabilizers and other accessories (second oar, carry bag). Upgrades available besides stabilizers include, upgrade to 55 SF sail (item 5011 - really not needed unless winds are very light - & heavy duty mast, heavy-duty bag for sail kit (item 6007), second steering oar (item 5031). With a second steering oar, you can propel the boat by rowing if the wind dies, and you can switch steering hands without shifting an oar from one side to the other. More Info.

Deluxe Sail Kit for Pakboats Canoes and Kayaks See description of the basic product at item 3025. Fits Pakboats canoes and kayaks.
With the deluxe kit you get: Hydrodynamic stabilizer floats (pontoons on outriggers), a second steering oar, and a large, heavy-duty carrying bag. Sail size is 45 SF and the mast is our standard mast.
Pakboat Puffin Saranac tandem folding kayak with deluxe sail kit An open folding kayak for 2 people with our deluxe sail kit (see description for item 3026 for what this includes). This is a complete sailboat in two duffel bags. The kayak (you could call it a canoe) weighs just 28 lbs, yet has a capacity of 2 persons/400 lbs and a length of 15 feet. Kayak assembles in about 20 minutes (twice that the first few times); similar for the sail kit. We're excited about the speed, portability and upwind sailing ability of this sailboat. The kayak is a non-inflatable PVC skin over and aluminum tubing frame. Between the frame and the skin are 2 inflatable tubes on each side, for safety and to tighten the skin. You will feel this boat flex under stress, just like a traditional eskimo kayak, but like an eskimo kayak, it's plenty strong. For more info see our Pakboat sail kit page. Click Here

See item 6007 or item 1090 for sail kit carry bags. We haven't listed any shipping cost on this item, because it's free shipping if bought with a sail kit or stabilizer.

Camera Mount -- Video Yourself Sailing Puts your camera four feet out in front of your sail kit front crossbar, shooting back at you and your passengers. Make some nice sailing videos. 47-inch camera boom is removable to use as a camera wand to take hand held shots back at yourself or others from 4 feet up in the air or out to the side. Consists of 2 pieces: Socket clamps to front crossbar and 47-inch long camera boom snaps into it. Recommended for use with waterproof camera. Camera screws on using the tripod mount threaded fitting on the bottom of most cameras.
Upgrade Steering Oars to Add Kayak Paddle Versatility This is an upgrade item that modifies the order it is part of. It cannot be ordered by itself.
Add this item to replace a standard pair of steering oars with a pair that is convertible into a kayak paddle. The blade sections of the steering oars snap together to make one double-bladed kayak paddle. So, if you are out sailing and convert to convert from wind power to human power, you just take apart your steering oars and put them back together as a kayak paddle. Your two oars make one paddle.
This item is only applicable if you have two steering oars in your order. Most of our kayak sail kits do.
These convertible steering oars are also more heavy duty than our standard ones (1 1/4" diameter shafts instead of 1 1/8")
45 SF sail, spars, slide, ropes, instructions Great package deal to add an alternate sail to your sail kit (or to help you with a DIY project). Sail will be our "D" color scheme in nylon (white with blue yellow and red stripes at top and bottom) unless you specify another in the order comments.
Includes nylon sail, folding spar set with all fittings, swiveling mast slide, halyard rope, sheet rope and instructions with link to how-to video. No mast is included.
See item 5000 for set with mast. This is everything you need if you already have our sail kit and you want an alternate sail you can quickly swap in without having to go through the procedure of dismounting and mounting the sail on the spars.

Giant 66 SF Sail and Spars and Mast Slide Be ready for really light winds with this giant sail. You'll have it mounted on spars already, so the switch from your existing sail will be fast. Mast slide included (see item 4992 for lower price without mast slide or item 4990 for sail only). This sail is like our 55 SF sail except the boom is also extended, like the top spar. Heavy duty mast recommended, as with the 55 SF sail. We would not use this sail above 12 mph winds. Best under 10. Terrific value pricing. Color: 2-tone blue (sail B) only. Although we say this is for light winds, at least one of our customers has ignored this limitation with no ill results.
The following was posted to the Snark Sailboat Owners Yahoo group by TCraig: "Just went sailing today with my Snark Sunflower with the 66 sq.ft. sail. The wind was gusting to 23mph and the Sunflower was tearing along at 4.5 mph for 2 miles per my Iphone gps app. I think that would be a top speed for the Sunflower. I had to really hike out to keep from capsizing and the mast was bending like crazy with the gusts but the mast was ok in the end. I mention this in case anyone is considering upgrading to the large 66 sq ft sail from the 55 sq ft sail. Be prepared for some energetic sailing!"

66 SF Sail and Spars (no mast slide) Be ready for really light winds with this giant sail. You'll have it mounted on spars already, so the switch from your existing sail will be fast. Just move the mast slide over to this spar set and you're good to go. Or, buy a second mast slide($30) too. This sail is like our 55 SF sail except the boom is also extended, like the top spar. Heavy duty mast recommended, as with the 55 SF sail. We would not use this sail above 12 mph winds. Best under 10. Terrific value pricing. Color: 2-tone blue (sail B) only.

Side Saddle Canoe Motor Mount for Old Town Canoes with Vinyl Gunwales - New and Improved Sidesaddle.
Clamps to one side of the canoe and has no crossbar. Only fits canoes with very thick gunwale lips like Old Town with thick vinyl gunwales ( thickness 1 inch to 1 1/2 inches and width 1 1/2 inches to 2 1/4"). No need to measure for Old Town -- it will fit. Also Mad River models that have rectangular black vinyl gunwales.
People have adapted it to other canoes with home-made blocking or shims, but we cannot advise you on this. If you have an Old Town or similar canoe with thick rectangular vinyl gunwales, this is a great solution. For most other canoes, go with the Any Length canoe motor mount Item 5215 or Super Strong Motor Mount (item 5053) or the Hinged Motor Mount (item 5052) .
Some people say it is okay for gas motors up to 3 HP but we are not sure -- so put a gas burner on it at your own risk! We will be interested in user feedback on this.
Works on either side of canoe. Has adjustable angle block. Angle one way, stand it up vertical, or angle the other way.
New and improved design and manufacturing process. Far, far stronger than old side-saddle model sold by Old Town itself.
Stabilizers recommended when motoring any canoe with any motor mount to prevent capsizing (item 5118).
Clamp adjusts in and out to work with gunwales of 1 1/2 to 2 1/4 inches width and thickness of the lip from an inch to 1 1/2 inches. Don't need to measure for an Old Town. It will work as long as it has the black vinyl gunwales, not the aluminum. The Mad River models that have black vinyl gunwales also work with this.
Spar set - boom, top spar, mast slide, ropes for our rigs, Sea Eagle, etc. Segmented (3 sections each) and shock-corded inside, so they folds to 45 inches, but the parts stay together. You fold it with the sail still on the spars, for fast setup and take down. Fits our rigs, Sea Eagle, SOAR too. Add item 5160 (spar extension) to fit Sunflower or our rigs with 55 SF sail. Mast slide is on pivot, so sail can be furled and stored vertically against the mast, held up by the halyard, without taking the mast slide loose from the mast. Spars are aluminum, for light weight and strength. Includes all necessary fittings and hardware. If you get a second sail, we recommend a second spar set to save time changing sails. It saves at least 20 minutes each time.
Canoe wheels, 16-in. - slip-on to sail rig, rowing rig or stabilizer system Canoe wheels quickly slip onto main cross bar of the canoe rig, rowing rig or canoe stabilizer system. Just roll your canoe down the trail to the water's edge. Don't have a stabilizer or canoe sail kit and don't want one? Buy crossbar and clamps to accept wheels (item 5034). 16" diameter, fat tires for easier rolling in sand or soft ground -- like the tires on a contractor's wheel barrow.
See item 5063 for same thing but with thinner, 12" tires. We have videos of that version (identical except for tire size).
Upgrade to Reefing Batwing Sail, Mast, Etc. (substitution) This is a substitution item to use only when ordering a sail kit or boat and sail kit from us. This item deletes the lateen sail, mast, spars and mast step and substitutes in a Batwing sail from Balogh Sail Designs. Includes substitution of mast, boom, mast step, sail and rigging. To buy these items outright, instead of as a substitution, order item 5008 instead. The Batwing sail can be reefed by means of zippers to reduce sail area in high wind. The high-tech modern design of the sail makes it more efficient for sailing upwind. Across the wind (reaching) it is about equal to our 55 SF lateen sail in a strong wind. In light winds, it is inferior on all points of sail. It shines in winds above 10 mph. Size is 36 SF but performance in strong wind can equal or beat a larger sail, with less healing over of the boat. Note: Batwing sail comes with its own bag (included) for sail and mast and it is about 54 inches long (sail and mast fold to 54 inches). This bag is just for the sail, mast and boom.

Reefing Balogh Batwing Sail, Mast, Boom, Mast step Same as item 5007 except not as a substitution.
This item is for direct purchase of a modern Batwing sail from Balogh Sail Designs plus a Free mast step that will adapt it to any of our rigs (not Snarks). Includes mast, boom, mast step, sail and rigging. To buy these items as substitution for the corresponding standard items in a sail kit or sailboat you are ordering, order item 5007 instead. The Batwing sail can be reefed by means of zippers to reduce sail area in high wind. The high-tech modern design of the sail makes it more efficient for sailing upwind. Across the wind (reaching), in a strong wind, it is about equal to our 55 SF lateen sail, despite smaller sail area. In light winds, it is inferior on all points of sail. It shines in winds above 10 mph, particularly in upwind performance. Size is 36 SF. Two reefing zippers. More info CLICK HERE Not included: leeboards, frame, steering. This is not a complete sail kit.

Get 2nd sail: Add 55 square foot sail and spar extension, plus mast upgrade This is an upgrade item that can only be ordered at the time of ordering a sail kit. It is like item 5011, except you get to keep the 45 SF sail while adding a 55 SF sail
so you have a choice of sail size.

Heavy-duty mast upgrade included (must have a sailkit or a standard mast in same order to qualify for upgrade).

Twice as strong on the bottom half of the mast, so you are ready for stronger winds, and taller so you get more headroom under the boom. Only a pound heavier. Still fits in the optional rig bag. Not shock-corded. Pieces lock together with spring button instead. This price is only to substitute this mast for the standard mast when ordering a rig. If you want a heavy duty mast and you are not ordering a rig at the same time, please order item 5039 instead.

Upgrade Sail to custom Dacron 45 SF -- allow 3 to 6 weeks for delivery Order this item to delete the nylon sail from your sail rig order and substitute a 45 SF custom dacron sail. Made to order so you choose the color or colors. Dacron marginally outperforms the standard nylon sail in terms of power & upwind sailing ability, but we don't really see much performance difference in our test. This is offered for the real sailing enthusiast who is willing to pay extra for a extra quality and a wide choice of colors. Sail color page . We also have Dacron sail options in ready-made sails -- look for our "upgrade to white dacron" and our "upgrade to Neil Pryde sail" options.
Some colors extra. Lettering or your custom logo are possible, at extra cost.

Canoe leeboards that snap-in -- mount to stabilizer crossbar, pair Pair of Canoe leeboards that mount to same crossbar as stabilizers (outriggers). Leeboards are large blades that slice through the water making it easier to go straight and harder to get pushed sideways by the wind or erratic paddling. Includes mounting fittings and knob bolts to attach to crossbar of our stabilizers (outriggers), so you can use both at once. Leeboards swing back and up if they hit submerged obstruction or beach. Already included in sail kits. The mounts are the newer type with all stainless-steel threads.
For just one, see item 5029.

Gets you oar pivot points farther apart than width of the canoe, for better leverage when rowing. Price is for a pair (right and left). Requires crossbar and gunwale clamps from our canoe stabilizer or canoe sail kit, or can be used with Accessory Seat and no crossbar. They are not included.
One end of each rowing outrigger snaps into crossbar or Accessory Seat. Other end clamps to your canoe gunwale (clamps included). Oars, seat, crossbar sold separately. Accepts 1/2" diameter oarpin (same as the pin on our steering oars). If you need crossbar and clamps (i.e., maybe you are getting a sail kit, but don't want the rowing setup to share parts with the sailing setup) they can be ordered separately. MORE INFO CLICK HERE. These are our unique adjustable rowing outriggers: Row from the middle of the canoe in the morning when you are solo, and from bow or stern in the afternoon when you have company aboard. The adjustability lets you use them with any canoe width. That's a big deal, when you realize canoes are different widths in the middle vs. the ends!
Steering Oar & Oar Pin & Short Strap. Oar w/ clamp-on oar pin. Flat blade, 7' length. Short strap included to secure oarpin in socket. Free shipping if ordered with a sail kit. Otherwise, $15 shipping* added after checkout. Use with our sail kits and canoe rowing attachment. Sail kits come with one, but you may like to have a second one. Some kits already come with 2, so check the kit description. It's very convenient, when sailing, to have steering oars on both sides. You don't use them both at once for steering, but it allows you to steer with either hand without having to shift the steering oar from side to side. MORE INFO & VIDEOS CLICK HERE See item 5174 for oar without oarpin. See item 5175 for joining sleeve to mate two blade sections to make one kayak paddle. *Continental US only.
Cheaper by the pair if need 2 or want a spare: See item 3030.
Drop-in Canoe Seat with low CG, foam seat pad, 34 to 40 inch Add a canoe seat quickly and easily with this clamp-on design. Low center of gravity.

Includes clamps.
Consider also our Accessory Seat, which fits a broader range of canoe widths and on which we accept custom orders for any width.
Canoe crossbar and gunwale clamps Aluminum clamp-on crossbar with two square tubes in it that accept our stabilizer float arms, pop-in leeboard mounts, and/or rowing outriggers. Pre-drilled for the spring-buttons that lock in the attachments. Pair of gunwale clamps included. Standard lengths are 30", 36", 40", 45". State length in comment box of checkout page. Custom lengths possible. If you have our canoe stabilizer or canoe sail kit, then you already have one of these. If you want just the crossbar and no gunwale clamps, that is item 5097. State length desired in comment section of checkout page. Standard lengths are 30", 36", 40", 45" and 46". Custom lengths are additional cost see item 5072. But don't worry if a standard length is a little long because there is no harm in having a little bit of overhang.
Complete Rowing Package without Stabilizer Floats with Adjustable Rowing Outriggers, Flat Blade Oars, and Drop-In Seat. Complete Rowing Package (adjustable rowing outriggers, crossbar with gunwale clamps, drop-in seat, oars and oarpins) without stabilizer floats.

55 Sq. Ft. Nylon Sail and Spar Extension If you want to substitute this sail for the standard sail on something you are ordering today, then order item 5011 instead. This item is the 55 SF on it's own, not as a substitution. This 55 SF sail and spar extension fit any SailboatsToGo sailboat or sail rig. Heavy duty mast required. item 5011 is for upgrading. This item is for buying the sail on its own. Choice of color schemes -- see http://tinyurl.com/nylonsails for available options and let us know in the comments section of your order.
Heavy duty mast Free replacement if it ever bends or breaks in normal use. This Heavy Duty Mast fits our sailboats and sail rigs, Spring Creek and Sea Eagle Paddleski. Bottom section (which takes most strain) is twice as strong as standard mast (item 5004). Use this item to buy the mast outright, not as an upgrade.
Breaks down to less than 4 feet and weighs just a few pounds. Made of strong and light marine-grade aluminum, with nice anodized silver-color finish.
Use item 5016 instead to upgrade the mast on a sailboat or sail rig you are ordering today. (Note: Mast upgrade is free is you also select item 5011, upgrade to larger sail, and select the nylon sail option).
Snarks: This mast will not fit Sunflower and Snark sailboats. A mast that is 1/8" smaller in diameter and therefore designed to fit inside the Snark mast sleeve is listed separately.
If considering this mast for a DIY project, bear in mind that this mast is only tall enough if its base is at gunwale height (deck height) as it is on our sail kits. If you want the mast bottom to be down at the floor, you need our bottom extension to make it taller. Item 5045 is the bottom extension.
Canoe gunwale clamps - 1 pair - specify small or large For clamping crossbars to your canoe. In comment section of checkout specify large (about 3" between the legs of the u-bolt) or small (about 1.5").
This item gets you a set of 2 clamps.
Also called Gunnell clamps.
For the special deep clamps needed on the Mad River Adventure also add item 5155 (no extra cost) to let us know to substitute the appropriate type of clamps for your canoe. Order the 5041 and the 5155 together.
Hinged Motor mount for Canoe - The Flipper! Protects your trolling motor setup when you hit an underwater obstruction, because it allows the underwater unit to swing back upon impact. Also offers the convenience of swinging your motor up in shallow water or when passing over a rock or sandbar just by pressing down on the tiller you are already holding.
This motor mount is also very versatile. It accepts our stabilizer floats (either inflatable or hard plastic Hydrodynamic), or slip-on wheels. ($10 extra to have it sent to you drilled for accepting the spring buttons of stabilizer float arms -- just request in order comments).
Rugged construction using aluminum and stainless steel. Clamps to gunwale lips of almost any canoe. Available in 36" length or 45" length. The block is 10" so clamps can be up to 26" apart on the 36 incher or 35" apart on the 45 incher. We will send the 36" unless you request the longer one in your order comments. You will see the order comment space when you check out, right under the phone number and email spaces.
Motor mount for Canoe - Super Strong for up to 3 HP Similar to hinged motor mount (item 5052) but rigid and stronger with bigger block for mounting motor. Great for electrics and also gas motors up to 3 HP. Maximum motor weight is 35 lbs. Clamps slide to adjust to canoe width, up to 20 inches apart, but with extension (item 5054) can fit up to 30 inch width. Heavy-duty construction: The crossbar is 3/8" thick by 2 1/2" wide solid marine-alloy aluminum. The clamps are heavy, ribbed castings for strength and rigidity, with 3/8" diameter threaded shanks for the hand knobs on top that you use to tighten the clamps. Click on picture to enlarge.
Mad River Adventure canoes require substitution of special clamps (no extra cost); request them in comment section of checkout. Safety note: Motoring solo from the rear seat of a canoe is dangerous, because the uneven weight distribution puts the bow up in the air, and then the thrust of the motor can put it more up in the air, to the point where you could flip or swamp. At a minimum, put some weight up front. Better yet, turn canoe around and use the bow seat as the rear seat, which will put you and the motor closer to the middle. A set of our leeboards will improve steering control and help you fight crosswinds (item 5056). Set of our canoe stabilizers also strongly recommended for capsize prevention. See item 5215 for a motor mount that accepts stabilizer pontoons without need for another crossbar and is available in any length without need for extension. Clamps available separate from motor mount -- see item 5090 -- in case you need replacement or have a project in mind that could use them. See video on this motor mount.For MyCanoe owners, be sure to ask for special version in your order comments.
Fits item 5053 so that you can move the motor mount foward on your canoe. Most canoe motor mounts won't accomodate the width of a canoe anywhere but very close to the stern. This extension allows the "Super Strong" motor mounts to span up to 29 inches. (Low shipping cost assumes you are buying other items. If purchased solo, we will add $5 shipping).
Snap-in Motor Mount for Trolling Motor Motor mount snaps into end of our stabilizer crossbar or front crossbar of sail kit. The telescoping arm of your stabilizer float passes right through the motor mount and engages the stabilizer crossbar normally. Works great with Minn Kotas and other brands. Use with stabilizer float is required.
Leeboards and crossbar for canoe (leeboard unit) Leeboards help you go straight. Many uses: When motoring clamp this leeboard unit onto your canoe near the front to give much more steering control. Or put at the back when rowing from the middle as tracking fins. Or put up front when paddling from the rear solo to help you go straight. Let's you tack upwind when sailing if you are making your own sail kit (leeboards included with our sail kit). Also available with a single leeboard. (See item 5154 for 1-blade version)
Leeboards are large fins in the water, aligned to help you go straight and to prevent slipping sideways due to the wind.
At this price, leeboard blades will be black phenolic. Add item 5092 to your order of this item to upgrade the leeboards to our white polycarbonate "unbreakable" type of leeboards.
Leeboard unit greatly improves steering control and resistance to crosswinds when motoring and allows you to move the motor location forward without loss of steering ability. Motoring from the extreme rear of a canoe can be dangerous (risk of swamping or tipping). Motoring in a crosswind can present control problems. Add leeboards, move motor farther from rear end (using an add-on seat or by turning canoe around and using bow seat as the stern seat) and these problems are reduced. Stabilizers also recommended for motoring. Leeboards help with paddling and rowing too, but effect is not as dramatic. Unit includes: crossbar with snap-in leeboard mounts, 2 leeboards and mounting bolts with hand knobs, pair of gunwale clamps. No-tool, no drill mounting system. Includes two gunwale clamps, two snap-in leeboard mounts, two leeboards. Adjustable length to fit your canoe width (About 31 inches minimum to 47 inches maximum).
Crossbar and gunwale clamps without leeboards is item 5163.
Electric Motor Package includes battery and charger Electric motor package designed for convenience when motoring distances planned are moderate. Includes a Minn Kota 30-lb thrust electric trolling motor (or Newport Vessels 36-lb) and a rechargeable power pack with built-in charger and power meter and carry handle. (If Minn Kota is not available we may substitute Newport Vessells 36-lb-thrust equivalent).
Contrast this package to the norm: Ordinarily, you buy a motor, then a battery. a charger and battery box. Our package is complete in one purchase and more convenient to carry, store, charge and live with in your boat.
With this package, the battery is thin and tall and can easily be strapped to a canoe thwart or inflatable-boat grab line (strap included), is not so heavy (20 lbs), has built in charger for AC; also has cord that lets you charge while you drive from car cigarette lighter. Battery unit has built-in power meter, and is in a sealed case - no worry ever about spilling battery acid! Yet it has enough power to take you 2 miles on one charge (20 amp-hour) in a small boat, under average conditions.
Sales tax on this item may be added in a separate, later charge to your card.
Want 4-mile range? Buy a second power pack (next item). One charge on one battery (about 5 cents worth of electricity) will allow you to cruise for an hour on the "3" setting (out of 5) on the speed control. Power pack is a truck jump starter and will also start your car in an emergency using its included cables. Has accessory output (cigarette lighter style socket). Motor is light (22 lbs), quiet, smooth, powerful; has 5 forward and 3 reverse speeds, extending tiller, and plenty of power for canoe or inflatable. No smell, no noise, no gasoline fumes or hazards in your boat or car. Use of motor in salt water will void warranty, but if you rinse salt off thoroughly after each use you can get away with it.
Click arrow twice to play video !! Motor mount for your canoe or inflatable sold separately (not included). Telescoping handle on motor adjusts from about 10 to 15 inches.

White Dacron Sail - 55 SF fits Sunflower and our rigs Dacron is the sail material used in sails for most larger boats, because it is more durable and holds its shape better than nylon. A nylon sail stretches more in high wind, which can reduce your upwind performance. For years, we've sold Dacron sails that are custom made as an upgrade, as an upgrade taking 6 weeks and costing more than this sail. Now this sail brings down the price and eliminates the long wait. Fits Sunflower and is the same size and shape as our other 55 SF sails. More pictures click here.

Sail and Spars Bag - Long Skinny Sack Great for Car Topping Heavy duty drawstring bag measures 12' 8" long and about 6 inches in diameter (9 inches wide if empty and flat). Fits our spars, sail and mast without folding them. Click Here for Photos. Fits spars, sail and mast of Super Snark or Sunflower. Protects the sail from flapping and shredding itself when car-topping. Keeps all these vital parts together in your garage or basement so they don't get lost or forgotten between sailing excursions. Protects sail from sun, wind and rain when stored or transported outside. If you have our folding spars and mast, you don't absolutely need a full length bag like this, but it's a nice option to save the time of folding and unfolding. Sent by US Mail if ordered by itself so please give a postal shipping address for this item. Free shipping applies if ordered with other items that carry a shipping charge. Otherwise $7 charge will be added for shipping in a separate transaction when we ship.
Upgrade rudder blade to unbreakable This item substitutes a polycarbonate unbreakable blade for the standard blade on a rudder in your present order. Cannot be ordered without ordering a rudder. Standard blade is pretty tough, but not unbreakable if you whack sideways on a rock. This will make it unbreakable. Shown here on our rudder-pin style rudder but works just as well on the clamp-on rudder.

short strap with spring lock buckle These are the short straps we use to attach sail kits to boats. Also works great to keep oars in their sockets. They are great for many other uses too. Very durable and reliable. Really nice lightweight, corrosion resistant cam buckles and 1-inch wide nylon webbing strap. About 16 inches long. Superior to the usual straps sold elsewhere because the buckles are stainless steel. Buckles made of other metals have to be heavy, clunky and hard to start the end of the strap through in order to be strong enough. These buckles are strong, corrosion-proof, and yet made of thin metal so they are light and easy to handle. We've been using these since 2008 and our experience has been uniformly great. The brand is Arno, but be careful -- not all Arno straps are stainless steel like these are.
Free shipping if ordered with something else that has a shipping cost. Otherwise, we'll add $8 for postage for up to 12 straps.
long strap with spring lock buckle About 12 feet long and 1 inch wide with stainless steel spring loaded cam buckle. Cut to any length and seal cut end by passing through a flame (use caution until it cools). Great for holding boats on vehicle roof. Always use more than minimum number of straps when car topping a boat, for safety. We also use these straps on some of our sail kits to hold kit to boat.
Free shipping when ordering something else that has a shipping cost. otherwise, we will add $7 per 5 straps or less for shipping.

Bow or Stern Strap System for Safer Car Topping Three-piece strap system for securing bow or stern to vehicle. Two pieces have hooks that secure to bumper or frame of vehicle. Third strap piece loops over a thwart or seat on the canoe or boat, or goes through a bow handle. Cam buckles join the 3 pieces allowing easy tightening and adjustment of tension to centralize the load. For easier attachment of the hook ends to the vehicle, install bolt-on strap loops (item 5204) called "top ties" to accept the hook ends. click on picture to enlarge. Order 2 for securing both ends of boat. Free shipping applies if ordered with other items that carry a shipping charge. Otherwise, $6 shipping for one or two.
Pair of Top Ties -- Bolt-on Strap Loops Bolt these onto your vehicle under the hood or at other inconspicuous location and use them as anchor points for securing load straps for carrying your boat on the roof. Price is for 2 loops. On most vehicles you can find a bolt already in a convenient location to secure them to. The idea is to bolt them on in the engine compartment near the edge of the hood opening so they can be hidden under the hood when not needed or brought out through the crack between hood and fender when needed. From the manufacturer: "A tough
1" nylon loop with a solid brass grommet. Top Ties attach under the
hood, on the fender bolts. Than just flip them out when needed! No
crawling under your vehicle." A tough

Oar shaft extension Adds about a foot to our standard 7-ft flat-blade oar by snapping into the middle joint of it. Price is for one. Order 2 for a pair. Generally will ship free if we can throw them into a box with something big you ordered at the same time. Otherwise, it will be $10 shipping for one or $12 for two if we have to ship them on their own (lower 48 states pricing only). Our computers aren't smart enough to figure the shipping so we'll add it later in a separate transation.
Rowing Outriggers - Non-adjustable. Heavy duty. Fixed-span.
Gets you oar pivot points farther apart than width of the canoe, for better leverage when rowing. Price is for a pair (right and left). Requires crossbar and gunwale clamps from our canoe stabilizer or canoe sail kit, or can be used with Accessory Seat and no crossbar.
Optional lift blocks raise up the oarlock sockets by 2 3/4" giving what many people find to be a more comfortable set of body mechanics. Click Here.
Photo shows complete rowing package with drop in seat. This item is for the outriggers only. One end of each rowing outrigger snaps into crossbar or Accessory Seat. Other end clamps to your canoe gunwale (clamps included). Oars, seat, crossbar sold separately. Accepts 1/2" diameter oarpin (same as the pin on our steering oars). If you need crossbar and clamps (i.e., maybe you are getting a sail kit, but don't want the rowing setup to share parts with the sailing setup) they can be ordered separately. Detailed photos and dimensions click here.
Upgrade standard mast to super heavy duty This item upgrades a standard mast that is already in your order to Super Heavy Duty. This is an upgrade item and cannot be purchased unless a standard mast is already in your order, either as part of a sail kit or by itself. If there is a sail kit in your order, then this item will also upgrade the mast step to the larger size needed for this mast and the mast slide to larger size, both at no additional cost.
Benefits of a stronger mast: (1) Stiffer, so your boat reacts quicker when you start on a new course and no energy is lost flexing the mast; (2) stronger, so you can go out in stronger winds with a heavier boat and withstand the resulting greater forces without mast failure.
Upgrade Heavy Duty Mast to Super Heavy Duty Our Super Heavy Duty Mast is stiffer and stronger than our Heavy Duty Mast because it is 1/4" larger in outside diameter (1 1/2" instead of 1 1/4") and because all 3 sections have 1/8" wall thickness (as compared to bottom 2 sections only in the case of the Heavy Duty Mast, with the top section being 1/16"-wall).
This item is an substitution item only, which means you have to have something with a Heavy Duty Mast already in your basket and then adding this item upgrades that mast to Super Heavy Duty. If you also have something with a mast step and/or mast slide in your order, it upgrades those items too to fit the Super Heavy Duty Mast.
Super Heavy Duty Mast 8-ft. tall mast in 3 sections. 1 1/2" outside diameter. 1/8" wall thickness throughout. Anodized marine aluminum. It also has a slightly shorter setting at about 7'6". If you need the mast taller than 8 feet, add the bottom extension.
If you want a complete package with sail, spars and mast, order item 5169 or 4986 plus the upgrade to Super Heavy Duty mast. And don't forget the bottom extension if your project needs one.
Ships free if bought with enough other stuff that carries shipping charges so that this is covered. If not, we'll add dup to $15 shipping in a later, separate charge. (Higher outside lower 48 US states).

Cam Cleat on a Caribiner for Halyard or Sheet A clip-on cam cleat. Clip it to something on the boat for holding the halyard or sheet. Jerk the line one way and this gadget grabs and holds it. Jerk it the other way and it releases the line.
Note: Cleating a sheet always increases your risk of capsizing; although it is designed to allow quick releasing, it might not be quick enough in a sudden gust. For many, it's an acceptable risk, for the sake of not having to hold against the tug of the sail all the time.
Our price is not the best. We offer it for your convenience. You can save a few dollars by finding it on Amazon or at a Home Center ("CamJam XT 1500 lbs"). Just make sure it is the one for ropes up to 3/8", not for thin cords.

Fishing Boat Sail Rig Everything you need to sail your fishing boat in a compact folding kit that just clamps on and away you go. No drilling or other modification of your boat is needed. This is intended for aluminum, fiberglass and plastic open boats. The gunwale clamps grab underneath the little horizontal lip that almost all such boats have at the top edge of the sides. If your boat has no lip, we can provide a bolt-on bracket that the clamps can mate with for $19 additional.
The rig includes a 45 s.f. nylon sail (red-white-blue-yellow), spars, mast, mast step (socket), frame that clamps to the boat and accepts the mast step and leeboard mounts, leeboards, gunwale clamps, a rear crossbar that goes just forward of the transom and provides pivot points for the ruddering oar, and a special wide-bladed ruddering oar and oarlock. You can even sail with an outboard mounted on the transom, because our ruddering oar (steering oar) system has many alternate pivot points: If the center positions are blocked by an outboard, use one of the side positions. If you prefer a traditional rudder, see .
Deluxe Fishing Boat Sail Rig Just like item 7000 (so please read that item) but in a deluxe package: Includes larger 55 SF nylon sail, spar extension, heavy duty mast, heavy-duty carrying bag. This is the steering oar version, which is the version that works with an outboard motor on the transom. The steering oar also has an advantage over a traditional rudder in that you can turn the boat with it even if you have no forward motion. A rudder requires the boat to be moving in order to work. A steering oar does not, so you can't get stuck "in irons" (pointed head-on into the wind and not moving). But a steering oar puts a little more strain on your arm than a rudder does in a strong wind.

Fishing Boat Sail Rig Deluxe Package 2 Same as item 7001 except steering is by a traditional rudder. Install two eyebolts (included) on your transom to accept rudder pin or buy our clamp-on rudder upgrade if you don't want to install eyebolts into your transom. Includes larger sail, stronger mast, and carrybag as described in item 7001.

To upgrade this rudder at time of ordering to substitute a polycarbonate blade (lighter, unbreakable) order this item 7003 plus item 5193 .

Porta-Bote Adapter Package Everything you need to adapt the Fishing Boat Sail Rig (item 7000, item 7001, item 7002) to the Porta-Bote. Consists of secondary front crossbar and gunwale clamps for it, plus 3 pairs of bolt-on brackets ("false gutters"). No additional shipping when purchased with a sail kit. The price below assumes we are deleting the regular gunwale clamps from a sail kit ordered at the same time and substituting special clamps for the Porta-Bote. If that's not the case, and there is no deletion of clamps, we will add $20 in a second charge against you card. We will also add $12 (total $32) for shipping.

Clamp-on rudder - great for dinghies, square-back canoes, inflatable tenders, Walker Bay 8 0r 10, etc
Complete rudder with sturdy clamp-on mount that allows up-down and tilt adjustment. Kick-up blade allows beaching and protects against damage from underwater objects. Use on square-back canoe, rowboat, Walker Bay 8 or 10, fishing boat, inflatable transom boat (Zodiac and similar). Even mount on side of canoe using a canoe motor mount. Clamps to transom or motor mount just like a trolling motor. Launch Video Click Here See item 7008 if you want to substitute this rudder for a non-clamp-on rudder in a sail kit you are ordering.
Optional push-pull tiller system: (See pictures click here.) . If conventional swing tiller is a problem in your installation, add our Tiller Turner option. This offsets the tiller motion to the side and converts your arm motion to push-pull instead of side to side. For example, mount rudder beside a motor, and tip up one or the other, depending on which you are using. The swinging tiller might hit the tipped-up motor, but the push-pull Tiller Turner will solve that problem. See: Item 2017 Tiller Turner for more info on this option.
Optional Unbreakable Blade Upgrade: Standard blade is phenolic (black trapezoid), and it's pretty good. But if you want a longer, more unbreakable blade upgrade to our polycarbonate blade by adding this item to your order: Click Here
