Substitute Non-Adjustable Rowing Outrigger for adjustable
Add this item to your canoe rowing order to change the package from adjustable rowing outriggers to non-adjustable.
Detail on Non-Adjustable Rowing Outriggers click here.
This is ONLY usable as a substitution item to modify an order. That means you must have in the same order a package that comes with adjustable rowing outriggers. Then, adding this item to your order will tell us to send the non-adjustable instead and the price of this item will charge you for just the difference in price resulting from the substitution.
Conversion Kit - Canoe Sail Rig to Inflatable Sail Rig This package contains all the parts necessary to cross-fit your Canoe Rig to an Intex or Bestway inflatable dinghy (and some others)! Increase your sailing opportunities! Great for teaching kids to sail. Grownups love the comfort and convenience of inflatable sailboats. Please tell us the brand and model of your dinghy in the order comments space.
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. (7) Some boats require an L-shaped piece to stabilize the rear crossbar against flopping forward. If yours does, that too will be included.

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 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 Stabilizer with Inflatable Floats, 46-inch crossbar and Up-Down Adjustment, Square Posts
Complete canoe stabilizer system with in/out and up/down adjustment and inflatable pontoons on square posts.
. The pontoons are excellent quality, made of 3-ply non-sretchy material so they inflate quite firm. 3-year warranty against leakage.
The square-post mounting system means the floats are always aligned pointing forward and the clamp system for the up/down adjustment is super easy, operable with one hand.
Crossbar length is 45 inches. Must be long enough to span your canoe but can be longer. If you have outside gunwale lips, then must be long enough to span your canoe plus 4" or more overhang.
The included gunwale clamps tighten and loosen with hand knobs and they slide anywhere along the crossbar to align with your canoe gunwales.
The in/out adjustment is locked by a spring button popping up into a hole. The telescoping arms put the pontoons about 2 feet out from the ends of your crossbar at their maximum so you can have about a 7-foot wingspan. With 7 feet distance between the floats and the floats adjusted down to the water, you have great stability. Or, adjust them up to hover over the water and catch you when you start to tip.
Inflation valve is a standard Boston valve, the most common type for inflatables. You can even inflate by mouth without too much effort, and they'll work okay at that pressure, though a hand or foot pump would let you get them firmer. Using a hand or foot pump, 1 1/2 pounds of pressure recommended (about 50% more than you can do by mouth).
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.
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).

Pair of hydrodynamic stabilizer floats This includes just the pontoons (floats) and the vertical float tubes for the hyrdrodynamic canoe stabilizer system. This would be for a do-it-yourself project or for retrofitting a foam stabilizer with the hydrodynamic floats. Note that if you have a really old stabilizer you are upgrading, from before hydrodynamic floats were offered, you will need the float arms too, because the clamping mechanism at the ends of the float arms was upgraded to clamp the vertical float tubes more tightly. In that case order item 1006 (float and arms) instead. More Info On Complete Stabilizer Systems 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).

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.

Radisson Canoe Sponsons with no hardware -- Free Shipping.
This is our lowest-cost option for Canoe Sponsons. See other listings for same with stainless steel hardware (item 5140) or plated steel hardware (item 5088). For full description and more pictures, please CLICK HERE
These are OEM for Radisson Canoes but will work fine on any canoe.
Square posts and float arms for Hydrodynamic Floats - Convert Yours!
Free shipping! For picture and more details on the square-post system, Click Here.
If you have 37"-long hydrodynamic stabilizer floats (current design) and would like to convert them to our super-convenient square-post system, this is the conversion kit that lets you do that. It consists of a set of square posts that fit over the round posts and are held in place by the pin you already have, plus a pair of float arms with the clamps for the square post system. Floats not included.
If you have the older 42" floats, you can still use this, but not as easily. Contact us (jim@sailboatsToGo.com or 1-978-263-7598) for details on square-post conversion for the old 42-inch floats.
The square post system is better because (a) it automatically aligns the floats straight ahead and they cannot ever turn, plus (b) the clamp is a simple one-hand-operated turn-knob that securely holds the vertical setting you want with minimum hand strength required. This eliminates the need for the lever-lock clamp used on round posts, so locking and unlocking becomes a 1-handed, no-strain operation! The conversion process is very simple, requiring no tools. Takes about 3 minutes. Everything you will need is provided.
Included: 2 posts, 2 arms and instructions. Converts one pair of floats. Your old arms will no longer be needed, so if they have been lost or damaged, no problem!
Duffel Bag for Mariner Floor or Canoe Cart Makes carrying mariner boats easier. Divide the load between boat bag (comes with boat) and this bag for roll-up floor. Now you have two 40-lb. bags instead of one 80-pounder! We use this same item number for a bag for carrying the folding canoe/kayak cart. Please specify in comment section if buying for a cart.
Free shipping if there is a cart, sail kit or boat in your order. Otherwise, we will add $7 later in a separate manual transaction to cover shipping.

Walker Bay 8 or 10 sail kit - Just sail, mast, spars, ropes, mast slide, mast adaptor
This is just the sail, mast, mast adaptor, spars and ropes. See item 1108 (<=click) for complete kit ( these items plus daggerboard and rudder).
What's included in this item: 45 sq. ft. nylon sail lateen sail -- so much more convenient to raise and lower than the Walker Bay sail where you have to put the tall mast inside a long sleeve sewn into the sail each time. Our lateen-style sail stays on its spars (poles) and can even be folded up with the spars, because the spars are in sections. You just raise and lower the whole assembly of spars and sail with the halyard line. Dropping the sail as you approach the dock or beach is so easy!
You can choose any of our nylon sail color schemes, or upgrade to Dacron and choose from our Dacron sail color schemes. Sail selection page click here.
If you would prefer to have a larger 55 SF sail, please order this item PLUS item 5011.
Stabilizer pontoons on outrigger arms available at $299 for inflatable floats (item 1114) or $399 for rigid plastic floats (item 1115). Helps prevent capsizing. Convenient clamp-on system -- no drilling. Floats adjust in and out and up and down. See stabilizer page to learn more: Click Here
Please put a note in order comments space indicating whether your boat is an 8 or a 10, and whether you want any accessories or upgrades. Also please tell us whether you have a vertical tube under your front seat that goes from the hole in the seat down to the floor, or just a hole in the seat and a cup molded into the floor with nothing in between. Either is fine. We just need to know.
Feel free to call Jim at 617 645 1605 to discuss your selections and/or order by phone.
Pair of Sportspal standard-length sponsons with stainless-steel hardware and free shipping
Sportspal sponsons have more flotation than Radisson sponsons (which we also sell) and they cost more. They can go on any brand of canoe or on a jonboat or whatever.
Note our price is for a pair, NOT just one sponson. If you want just one, contact us. Price is $85.
This listing is for standard length (9 feet), with stainless-steel hardware. This would be standard for 11 to 14-foot canoes. Other listings are for extra-long (12 feet), such as for 15 and 16-foot canoes.
Pair of Sportspal Extra-Long Sponsons with Stainless-Steel Hardware and Free Shipping
Sportspal sponsons are fatter and therefore offer more flotation than Radisson sponsons. They also cost more. This listing is for the extra-long size (12 feet) such as you would put on a 15- foot or longer canoe. Other listings are for the standard (9-foot) size. Stainless-steel hardware is included. Free shipping. This price is for TWO sponsons. If you want just one, contact us.
The photo is illustrative of the general shape and characteristics of the Sportspal sponson -- notice how fat they are -- but not necessarily of the length. The length is given above in feet.
Conversion Kit - Inflatable Dinghy or Kayak Sail Rig to Canoe (No Floats) Additional parts you need to use your inflatable dinghy, or U-front kayak, sail rig on your canoe.
Maximize your versatility! This item consists of 4 gunwale clamps ($80 value) and a pair of sliding leeboard mount converters ($59 value), plus instructions. You probably also want to order stabilizer floats and arms (item 1006). This is an upgrade kit for sail kit owners and would not be useful by itself.
You need the sliding leeboard mounts because canoes require the leeboards to be closer to the mast for proper steering balance. The leeboards should be no more than 2 feet behind the mast, for most canoes. Otherwise, your canoe will keep wanting to turn downwind, making it hard to control. What you want is a moderate tendency to turn upwind, which is what you wil have if you get the leeboards closer to the mast but not too close.

Sliding leeboard mount converters (Pair) Alternative to the Steering Balance Tuner. Don't need both. Allows you to adjust position of leeboards on our "Any Kayak", and inflatable boat sail kits (excluding kits for Pakboat, SVX200, Saturn & similar, where mast position is adjustable instead). Does not include leeboard mounts, because those are already part of your sail kit. Following the instructions provided, you will be able to fine-tune your rig for the combination of hull, sail, sailing conditions and preferences you have. Farther forward gives slightly better upwind performance. Farther back (up to a point) gives less drag and less effort on steering oar to hold course going straight ahead. Too far back gives control problems. Adjustable positioning allows you to adapt rig to wider variety of boats, and to your desired handling characteristics. The inflatable rig and the kayak rig work on rigid canoes if you get sliding leeboard mounts and 2 pair of gunwale clamps. (Canoes need the leeboards farther forward than the standard fixed position for kayaks and inflatables). Changing leeboard position with these sliding mounts requires no tools and can be done in a few seconds provided you aren't also trying to sail the boat at the same time. Do on shore or let your passenger do it for you, so you are not distracted from your duties as skipper!

Steering Balance Tuner (Read whole description!) Tune your rig for effortless steering and reduced drag. This accessory lets you move the mast forward, farther from the leeboards, thereby reducing the tendency of the sailboat to turn into the wind. Result? Less effort required from the skipper to hold a straight course, and less drag from the rudder or steering oar so you go faster.
Suitable for use on our dinghy rigs and the kayak rigs with U-shaped front assemblies like the rigs for Saturns and Sea Eagles and on the Any Kayak and Kayakamaran rigs. (If it is unsuitable for your rig, we will warn you before shipping it and let you delete it from your order).
Physically, what is it? This device is a short (13-inch) "bowsprit" that clamps to the middle of your front crossbar and points straight forward. The mast step is then mounted to it, instead of to the front crossbar. You then tune your steering by experimenting with different locations for the mast, a bit farther forward than its normal location.
Background: Sailboats are always designed so that the steering "pulls" a little toward the upwind side. This is called "weather helm." This does a lot of good things for safety and control, but there's a tradeoff -- too much weather helm is a drag, literally and figuratively. Literally because the rudder or steering oar drags more when correcting against the weather helm to hold a straight course, and figuratively because your arm gets tired holding the tiller against the pull (or push) of the weather helm when the wind is strong. Many things affect the degree of weather helm, including the design of the hull, the strength of the wind, the weight distribution in the boat, etc. (That's why we can't make a rig with steering balance that is automatically perfect for any boat.) The biggest factor affecting steering balance is the distance between the leeboards and the the mast. More distance ==> less weather helm. Less distance ==>more weather helm. And if the distance between mast and leeboards is set too great, the steering balance flips over into "lee helm" which means the boat is always trying to turn downwind, and that's bad. Small changes in the position of the mast relative to the leeboards (a few inches) make a big difference.
How you use this: Start by moving the mast just 3 inches forward of the front crossbar, and take a test sail. If you like the steering balance, you are done. If you want even less weather helm, go back to shore and move the mast another 2 inches forward and take another test sail. And so forth. If an experiment results in lee helm, you of course return to shore and move the mast to the rear a bit. Do not attempt to adjust while on the water!
Don't try for neutral helm. If it is neutral under test conditions, it may become lee helm under different conditions, (different wind conditons, different weight distribution in the boat) making handling unpredictable. Your goal is a moderate amount of weather helm. Do your tests under moderate wind conditions, close to shore. Lee helm can make sailing pretty difficult, so you don't want to risk it under challenging conditions. Do your tests with the leeboards angled back, since this affects steering balance and they may swing back during a given excursion even if you prefer them vertical.
Free shipping applies only if ordered with a sail kit. If ordered later, shipping is $10 and will be manually put through as a separate charge on your card.
Why does the position of the mast relative to the leeboards affect steering balance? Put a pencil on a table. Push sideways on it at the middle with your left index finger and resist that push with your right index finger, also at the middle. Your left finger is the wind on the sail and your right is the leeboards in the water resisting the sideways force from the wind. Move your left finger forward a bit while holding the position of your right finger unchanged and see how the pencil (the boat) turns downwind. Do the opposite and see how it turns upwind. Your left finger position represents the "center of effort" of the sail, which means the point along the sail at which force ahead of that point and force behind that point are equal. When you move the mast, you are moving that center of effort relative to the "center of lateral resistance." The leeboard position is pretty close to the center of lateral resistance, though your hull shape and your rudder or steering oar will affect its location somewhat.
Aside from its usefulness, this accessory is interesting to experiment with, for those intrigued by sailing mechanics. Just be careful to avoid lee helm.
We also offer sliding leeboard mounts as an alternative way to get more distance between the leeboards and the mast to accomplish the same goal of reducing weather helm.
Note: Be sure to install washers (provided) under star knobs of u-bolts. Important!
Electric Air Pump - Power Inflator 12V DC works off car cigarette lighter
We tested many inflators before choosing which to sell. This is the quietest one we tested. Plugs into cigarette lighter. Has adaptors for different size valves, or in some cases you will use the valve adapter that comes with your boat in combination with the nozzle on this. It does not have a hose. In some cases you can use the hose from your manual pump and mate it up with the nozzle on this. Will inflate boats to 95% in about 10 minutes. Final pressurization has to be done by hand or foot pump if you want it really firm, but that's just a few strokes of the pump. Inflates and deflates. Alligator clip adapter shown is not included.

Tiller Turner lets you sail sitting centered in the boat with center rudder The Tiller Turner accessory for a center rudder gets the tiller (the handle that controls the rudder) out of the middle of the boat, so you can sit there. Eliminates need to shift sitting position when you tack. Steering becomes a push-pull motion instead of side-to-side. Tiller is moved to one side, where you can hold it with your arm resting on the side tube of your inflatable. Must be ordering the rudder (item 2043 or item 2044 or item 7007) at the same time to purchase this item. (Note: This item is only applicable if you are getting a center rudder. Our standard steering system, which we prefer in most cases, is the side steering oar system that is standard on most of our sail kits and sailboats. The steering oar system also allows you to sit centered with the tiller at your side.) More Info Click Here

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.

Clamps to sail inflatable with motor mount Motor mounts use the same fittings we use for normal attachment of the steering oar unit, so trying to use both at once presents a conflict. This item resolves that conflict by allowing you to attach steering oar unit to motor mount supports. Enables you to sail with motor mount installed. Consists of a pair of stainless steel u-bolt assemblies & instructions. Motor mount and sail kit sold separately. See video here.

Lightweight, high quality Cannon kayak paddle Weight matters a lot for how quickly you tire when paddling. That's why we love this Cannon 39-oz. kayak paddle. Length is 230 centimeters (about 7 1/2 feet). Stiff yet light. Blade is asymetrical spoon. Drip rings. Shaft is aluminum, 1 1/8" diameter. Blades are nylon (glass reinforced). Shaft comes apart in middle . Worth the extra money if arm, back or shoulder fatigue is a potential issue for you.

Old style Intex Motor Mount -- for Seahawk Sport 400 etc.
This motor mount is for Seahawk Sport 400 and all older (pre-2005) Intex boats with motor mount fittings. Has longer arms than new-style (see item 3015 for new style). As far as we know, we are the only source in the world for this item. Allow a few extra days because we custom make part of this for each order.
Please make sure your old boat is still good BEFORE ordering this item. This item is not returnable based on changing your mind or discovering your old boat is no good, because of the custom fabrication aspect.
Contrary to photo, item is metal and plastic, not metal and wood.
You will receive two separate shipments, probably arriving on different days. One will be a new-style Intex motor mount with short arms and the other will be our custom-made adapters to lengthen the arms so they reach to the rear oarlocks of your old-style boat.
If you want to sail with motor mount in place, order clamps for steering oar assembly (item 3022). Dinghy sail kit options, upgrades and accessories page: Click Here.

Good for rowing or as steering oars with our sail kits.

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. If purchased on its own, we will add $10 for shipping (will not show during checkout, however).

Oarlock Towers 9-inch tall oarlock towers. Hole at top accepts 1/2" oarpin. Oarpin not included but available at: Item 5087 (Click Here)
They are a strong plastic. Don't worry about that word "plastic." They are plenty strong so you can really put your back into your stroke. Put a board across your boat, mount these to each end, sit on the board and row! The towers get the oarlocks up to a nice comfortable height.
Pair 8' Oars with Curved Blades Special heavier thickness, stronger aluminum shaft with fiberglass and aluminum reinforced blades. Utilizes a curved blade for flat river or lake rowing. This is one tough oar set. 7'11" long. Breaks down to 2 pieces. Oarpins not included but available: Item 5087 (Click Here) . Oars are Sea Eagle AB45 or equal.

U-bolts are available in 3 sizes. All are 1/4-inch diameter. (1) Small u-bolts with short legs (1 1/2" wide x 2 1/2" leg length) (2) small u-bolts with long legs (1 1/2" wide x 4" leg length) and (3) large u-bolts (3" wide x 4" leg length.
Tell us in order comments what size or sizes you want. Change quantity field and click "update quantity" button in lower left.
Free shipping if we can throw them in with something else you are ordering without affecting the shipping cost. Otherwise, $8 shipping in USA for pretty much any quantity (shipping to be added later manually by us).
Price is for one u-bolt. Threads are all 1/4"-20. If you want star knobs too, put that in the order comments and we'll charge $1 each to your card later for the star knobs.
steering oar unit for kayak, canoe, or dinghy Steering oar crossbar attachment parts. Crossbar is adjustable in length and has oarpin sockets on both ends. Please specify which craft you are wanting this to fit as there are variations and we rely on the customer's order notes to know which one to send, rather than creating a different item number for each variation.
Includes necessary hardware and/or straps for attaching. So, for example, on a non-inflatable canoe, it includes gunwale clamps. On and inflatable kayak it includes straps and right-angle piece. On an inflatable dinghly, it includes bolts, strap(s) and L bracket if L bracket is needed.
Does not include steering oar. Order item 5031 too if you need a steering oar and oarpin. Or item 3030 if you need 2.
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.
pair of standard leeboard blades (replacement part) Pair of standard leeboards, in case you have broken or lost yours. Star knob bolt at top of shaft NOT included. If you need the bolt too, order two of item 5094. This is just the blade (the black part) and the shaft (the aluminum part) and the fastener that holds them to each other. No mounting, no leeboard knob-bolt. If you want a more rugged blade, consider the unbreakable blade leeboards, item 5093 (which is a pair of unbreakables).
Quick Release Leeboard Mounts - pair Tired of screwing leeboard bolts in and out? These quick-release mounts make that unnecessary! One part of the leeboard mount stays bolted to the leeboard and they get put away like that without unscrewing anything. Mounting and dismounting is by spring button. Screw less, sail more!
This product is the complete mounts. If you are ordering a sail kit or complete inflatable sailboat and want to upgrade to (substitute) these in your order, use item item 4807 (click) instead.
These are only for our sail kits that use the U-shaped front assembly, where the leeboard mount is on the side rail. Not for our T-shaped front assemblies that already have snap-in leeboard mounts.
Another great benefit of these is greater durability. The other style of mount that these replace has aluminum female threads. Aluminum is soft and can strip. These have stainless steel for both male and female threads.
A third great benefit is the knobs that lock the leeboard angle have a nylon friction ring in the female thread, to help keep the knob tight when you tighten it.
Snap-in Leeboard Mounts with all stainless steel threads These mounts snap into our crossbar allowing you to mount a leeboard. These replace our similar part that had aluminum female threads. Both male and female thread on these are stainless steel, for longer life. Includes threaded shaft and the knob that screws onto it to hold the leeboard on.
New sail kits and new orders for snap-in leeboard mounts will get these more durable versions of the snap-in mount automatically. If you have existing snap-in mounts you would like to replace with these more durable ones, this is the item to order. Price is for a pair of mounts with knobs and washers.
These are for going right into the main front crossbar, not for mounting on side rails. See item 4806 (click) for snap-off mount that attaches to the side rails of a U-shaped front assembly.
Snap-in oarpin sockets These fittings snap into your crossbar and gives you an oarpin fitting off the end of the bar. Use for steering or rowing. Note: With rowing you'll have to be careful not to scrape your knuckles on the bar on the return stroke, so as a rowing solution for frequent use, this is not as good as our rowing outriggers.
Price is for a pair. Free shipping when ordered with something else of greater value. Otherwise, $11 will be charged to your card for postal service shipping cost .
Dacron Mayflower sail from the European Snark manufacturer. Shipped direct to you from Europe. Snark in USA does not support the Mayflower with any parts.
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 with mast, spars and mast slide Our 66 SF nylon sail, with the heavy duty mast and spar set with mast slide and ropes. This sail is too big for most small boats in high winds, but is just the thing for making the most out of weak winds. Get this as a supplement to your main rig, to use on light-wind days. If you already have our spar set, you don't absolutely have to have another spar set for the bigger 66 SF sail (just spar extensions), but having a second spar set makes it so much easier and faster to change sails. At this price you can specify 1 1/4" mast diameter (fits our mast step) or 1 1/8" (for Snarks and Sunflowers). We also offer similar packages without mast.
For a stiffer mast (a good idea with this large sail) add the Upgrade to Super Heavy Duty mast to your order. This Super Heavy Duty mast is fatter, so to use it in our rigs you also need to order the bigger mast step that we make for it.
Note for DIY project builders: The height of this mast (both Heavy Duty or Super Heavy Duty) is only appropriate if the bottom of the mast is at gunwale height (deck height) as it is on our rigs. A lot of DIY designs put the bottom of the mast at floor level, and in such cases you will need our for the mast in this package.
Sail and spars, w/ropes, mast slide in 55 SF size fits Sunflower For the Sunflower (also fits our rigs, Spring Creek, Sea Eagle: 55 SF nylon sail (any color scheme-- just tell us in the order comments during checkout), ropes (sheet and halyard), swiveling mast slide (also known as boom guide) plus the spar set to mount sail on (spars are the 2 poles that hold the sail, also known as boom and gaff or boom and spar). Spar extension included. Add our adjustable mast extension and this package would be all you need to convert a Super Snark or Sea Snark to the larger 55 SF sail!
Better than original equipment -- stronger spars, swiveling mast slide. And, the spars fold, with sail on them, for easier transport and storage. Sail will be yellow and white (no Sunflower logo), or if your prefer, all white. At this price, only those two color schemes are available. But if you want a different color scheme, or a dacron sail, you can have it by authorizing us in the order comments to charge your card for the price difference.
If you want this package plus a mast and any color scheme, please order item 5194 instead.
Giant 66 SF Sail Great sail for light winds at a blow-out price! This is only the sail. Requires spars that are about 12 1/2 feet long (both boom and gaff) with diameter between 3/4" and 1 1/8". If you have our spars, then you need two extensions, sold here
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.

Jib and Mainsail for the Snark Sea Skimmer and Sea Devil, from the manufacturer. Nylon. Red and white. Free domestic shipping! See item 4994 and item 4995 for buying them separately.
Sea Skimmer Main Sail - Same as Sea Devil OEM Sea Skimmer Main Sail, in nylon. Red and white (not as pictured)
Snark Sea Skimmer Main Sail (see item 4995 for jib or item 4993 for both)
Jib sail for Snark Sea Skimmer or Locksley Sea Devil -- or your DIY project. Shown in this picture on someone's home-made kayak rig. Jib is about 43" on foot, 10'6" on luff (front edge) and 9'9" on leach (back edge). Has been successfully used by many customers on a variety of boats. Red. Nylon.
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.
45 SF Sail, spars, ropes, mast slide and heavy duty mast
Just like item 5000 but the mast is our taller and stronger Heay Duty Mast. The mast is 8 feet tall instead of 7 foot 3 inches, and has greater wall thickness than the standard mast. Choose any of nylon sail color patterns and tell us in the order comments.
Mast,spars,45 SF sail, ropes, mast slide - fits our rigs, Spring Creek, Sea Eagle
All 6 items on one "buy now" button for ease of ordering. This is the 45 SF size; if you want 55SF order item 5169 instead.
Includes the "mast slide" which is the fitting that connects boom to mast and allows it to swivel, the halyard line for raising and lowering the sail and the sheet line for controlling the sail position.
The spars (sailor talk for the boom and the other long tube at the front of the sail) and the mast fold for easy shipping and easy storage and transporting.
If you prefer to have a taller and stronger mast than our standard mast, order item 4998 instead. Same thing in all respects except for the taller and stronger mast.
Need a rudder? Our Clamp-On Rudder (Item 7007) will clamp onto the transom of a dinghy or square-back canoe like a trolling motor would.
This item 5000 you are looking at is just sail, mast, spars, ropes and mast slide -- not a complete sail kit (no steering and no daggerboard or leeboard). See one of our sail kit pages (dinghy kit, canoe kit or kayak kit), accessed with "products" menu above, for complete sail kits.
Available sail color schemes shown here. Tell us your choice in the order comments space during checkout.
Ships worldwide - contact jim@sailboatsToGo.com for quote. Shipping cost is pretty reasonable to most countries; for example, recent quote to UK was $90.
Often bought with mast step (the socket that holds up the mast), item 5146.
Customer feedback: "Jim, The sail worked out just fine. I am using it in an ice boat. Your instructions and all were great. Thanks again. Thanks for the prompt shipping as well. Dan F."
Sail - 45 SF nylon Rainbow Stripes - for Super Snark, Sea Snark, Whirlwind Sail
Rainbow Stripes! Our most popular color scheme.
This is the sail only (no spars or other metal parts). Multi-colored. Fits Sea Snark and Super Snark. Also fits old Sunflowers without the "3.3" designation. (More on this below).
This is a true, aerodynamic, shaped sail, which means it is cut and sewn to have the necessary camber (3-dimensional curvature) for creating aerodynamic lift. Superior in power and efficiency to "flat triangle" sails offered elsewhere. Strong fabric and strong sewing, so it will last. Ships by USPS so PO boxes are okay and please ignore any warnings to the contrary during checkout process. More Info and other sail choices
(Sunflower owners: Compare lengths of the two poles that go inside the sail sleeves. If they are equal length, then you need a 45 SF sail like this one. If one pole is a couple of feet longer than the other, you need one of our 55 SF sails and this sail will not fit.)
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.
Standard Mast - 2 part, 87 inches, 1.25-inch diameter Mast for Canoe sail rig or inflatable sailboats with 45 sq ft sail. Segmented and shock-corded inside. Loop at top for halyard. Fits, Sea Eagle, SOAR, Spring Creek, too. Outside diameter is 1 1/4" That is 1/8" larger than Snark, so not suitable for Snarks. See item 5018 or item 5019 for Snark mast.
Consider the heavy duty mast (item 5039> instead. It is stronger, guaranteed for life against bending or breaking, adjustable in height, and gives more headroom under the boom.
Spar Set for 55 SF Sail, w/ ropes & mast slide Folding spar set for the 55 SF sail size, such as is used on the Sunflower 3.3. Includes ropes, mast slide and two pulleys for sheet.
Folds to less than 4 feet. When unfolded, boom is 10 feet and gaff (also called "top spar") is about 12 1/2 feet. All sections are connected by shock cord, to keep them organized when folded.
Stronger than Sunflower original equipment.
Swiveling mast slide (replaces the "boom guide assembly") included.
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).
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.

Snark Mast - for Sea Snark or Super Snark - only $15 shipping!
Replacement mast for Super Snark or Sea Snark. Two inches taller than the OEM original mast, giving you a little more headroom under the boom. If you want a mast that adjusts in height giving you the option of that height or taller, get our >Sunflower mast instead. That one also fits Super Snark and Sea Snark and adjusts in 4-inch steps up to 99 inches, for more headroom under the boom. Just a bit more costly, but not a lot.
Snark Sunflower Mast - also fits Super Snark and Sea Snark - Adjustable Height!
Replacement mast for Snark Sunflower 3.3, Super Snark and Sea Snark . Length is adjustable, up to 99 inches (OEM Sunflower mast is 99 inches). Adjustable length so you can make it lower if you want. We've never had a reported failure of one of these masts in over 12 years of selling them.
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.

Mast Slide or Gooseneck. Swivels - replaces boom guide assembly Mast Slide bolts to boom and accepts mast up to 1.375-inch outside diameter. Included with our spar sets and sail rigs, but offered here separately for those who want to use in conjunction with plans, or who may want to upgrade Super Snarks, Sunflowers and older Spring Creek Canoe sail rigs. The swiveling feature lets the boom swivel up without damaging anything. Closeup photo. It can even swivel the boom up all the way vertical where it and the top spar can be stored out of the way against the mast. Video: Click Here. Bolts and nuts (or sheet metal screws for Snarks) included.
Snark sailors: Please put the word "Snark" in the order comment space so we know to give you one with the correct mounting holes and hardware for the Super Snark, Sea Snark and Sunflower. Replaces Snark "boom guide assembly." This is a big improvement over anything that does not swivel vertically!
Snark and Sunflower instructions: bolt or screw the base plate to the boom. Discard left over screws, nuts and/or bolts.
We provide both sheet metal screws and bolts with nuts so you have your choice of how to attach it. You can use the existing screws that came with your boat, or our sheet metal screws, which are one size larger than original equipment in case your boom holes have become larger through wear (or in case you just want bigger screws for more strength or in case your screws have been lost).
Bolting will be more secure, but requies you to drill to make the mounting holes a little larger and to make them go all the way through the boom Only smallish holes are required, so you are not weakening the boom to any meaningful degree by drilling. Use the smallest bit that is suitable for the bolts. They are #10 bolts (3/16" approximate diameter). Please refer again to these instructions if you are a Snark or Sunflower owner when you get your item. Instructions are not sent with the item.
Spar Set for Super Snark/Sea Snark - Stronger & Better
Stronger than original equipment, yet our boom and spar fold so they're inexpensive to ship and convenient for you to store and transport. Carry your sail in the trunk, not on the roof, because you can fold and unfold the sail while it's on the spars, with our system. Folds down into 4-ft. long bundle. Aluminum. Includes swiveling boom guide assembly ($29 value), ropes ($20 value) and all other necessary hardware that attaches to boom and top spar. Complete instructions included.
Includes ropes and swiveling mast slide. With original Snark equipment all you get for connecting the boom to the mast is a rigid metal u-shaped fitting, that will bend and possibly break if you accidentally lift up on the tail end of the boom. With our equipment you get a swiveling mast slide that eliminates this potential problem.

Mast and spars fold for great convenience in shipping, storing and transporting -- you won't have to put the mast and spars on the roof because they can fold and go in the trunk.
"Hi Jim, the sail and mast kit arrived yesterday, Friday. Wow! I'm impressed. The quality and features are much better than I remember from my first Snark bought new here in Seattle in '81. Its mast and spars were rather crude by comparison. Anyway, thanks for your prompt service and a very fine product. Best wishes, Bill A." (buyer of this item, June 2011)
The reason for the quality difference is not the passage of time, Bill, it's that we do our own spars and mast and they're better. Includes ropes and swiveling mast slide.
55 SF Sail, nylon, yellow and white C55 This sail fits our sail rigs if you have the spar extension already. If you don't, order sail with spar extension (item 5012).
Approximately 11'8" on the luff (the almost vertical, forward edge) and about 9' 8" on the foot (bottom, horizontal edge). Yellow and white. May not say "Sunflower" on it. If you have a preference for having "Sunflower" on your sail, mention that in the order comments and we can probably accommodate you on that.
Kayak stabilizer with Hydro-Dynamic Floats & round post.
Kayak stabilizer with streamlined "Hydo-Dynamic" floats, in your choice of 3 colors. Available in grey, yellow or red. Specify color in comment space during checkout. If you don't specify, we'll send gray.

Stronger than original equipment, yet our boom and spar fold so they're inexpensive to ship and convenient for you to store and transport. For same item but without sail see item 5023. Carry your sail in the trunk, not on the roof, because you can fold and unfold the sail while it's on the spars, with our system. Folds down into 4-ft. long bundle. Aluminum. Includes swiveling boom guide assembly, ropes and all other necessary hardware that attaches to boom and top spar. Uses Racelite pulleys instead of rings on the boom for the sheet line, for smoother operation and greater durability. Complete instructions included.
Includes ropes and swiveling mast slide. With original Snark equipment all you get for connecting the boom to the mast is a rigid metal u-shaped fitting, that will bend and possibly break if you accidentally lift up on the tail end of the boom. With our equipment you get a swiveling mast slide that eliminates this potential problem.
For same item but with mast included see item 5024. In stock at SailboatsToGo. Usually ships within 3 business days after you order.
Sail is a nylon sail in the rainbow stripes pattern unless you tell us you prefer one of the others.
Snap-in Leeboard. Just one. Not a pair. Single snap-in leeboard (one blade and one snap-in mount). Just like item 5020 but a single one instead of a pair. See details at item 5020. For motoring, usually one blade is all you need.
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.

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.
Spoon oars with oarpins (pair) Pair of oars with efficient spoon-shaped blades for use with our canoe rowing outriggers. Multi-function versatility: The blade sections snap together to make one double-bladed kayak paddle, and with addition of item 5102 Tee Handles, these oars become 54" canoe paddles! 7.5' oar length.
Other oars: Standard duty, flat blade at lower price item 3030
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.

This item comes with 7-ft. flat-bladed oars. Please specify crossbar length in comment section of checkout (standard lengths are 36, 40 and 45 inches and it should be long enough to span your canoe with just a little overhang). MORE INFO CLICK HERE. Same item but with spoon-blade oars is item 5076.
Steering Oar Setup for Zodiac-type Boats If you want to sail but also have your outboard mounted on the transom and ready for action, then you can't mount our rudder on the transom. But here's an alternative to the rudder. This set consists of pivot blocks that strap to your air chambers aft of the transom, and an extra-long steering oar with fixed oarpin. Allows you to steer on either side. More Info Click Here
If you want to sail your Zodiac-type boat with our item 2009 sail rig, but also keep your outboard on the transom, one option for steering while sailing is to mount the rudder blade to the motor. All you need are: (a) This short rudder head and included square u-bolt, (b) the rudder that comes with the item 2009 sail rig, and (c) an outboard stabilizer plate you obtain elsewhere ($59 - we'll tell you where) . The short rudder head subtitutes for the standard long head and tiller that comes with the item 2009 sail rig. For explanation, pictures, and link to vendor of stabilizer plates click here
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.
Sunflower Replacement Sail (small - 45 SF) - Yellow & white C45 Replacement sail for older Sunflower Snark sailboats that do not have a spar extension. Fits 10' boom (horizontal pole holding sail) and 10' top spar (nearly vertical pole holding sail). Yellow and white. Check your Sunflower -- most are newer and require the 55 SF sail (item 5025) because their top spar is longer than the boom (around 2 1/2 feet longer). No logo. Other sails: Click Here.
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.

Double the flotation with 2 floats on each side. This is the hydrodynamic style 4-float stabilizer.
Consider upgrading the arms and vertical posts to the square post system for something really super nice by adding item 1031 with quantity on that of two, because you'll need two pairs.
4-Float Hydrodynamic canoe stabilizer with Link Arms adaptor - Email Jim@sailboatsToGo.com and specify crossbar length desired. Double the standard number of hydrodynamic floats AND the Link Arms adaptor that allows the second pair of floats to piggyback on the arms of the first pair of floats so that they are almost twice as far out from the side of your canoe for amazing stability. Double the flotation. Double the distance (almost). (Note extreme extension is for going slowly or staying in one place, only).
Link arms adaptor for use with 4 floats and arms Allows you to extend the width of the second pair of floats in a 4-float stabilizer. Can only be used in the extended position at very low speed or stopped.
The adaptor slides on the float arms of the first pair of floats and then the arms of the second pair of floats plug into the adaptor. Requires 2 pairs of floats and arms, not included. Shipping of $10 will be added manually later if we are not able to ship this with something else in your order.
If you only have 2 floats and arms and want to use this adapter to get wider distance between your floats, then you need this adaptor plus another pair of arms, which is sold as item 5051 (click).
Link Arms adaptors and extension arm for 2-float stabilizers (pair) Extend the spread between your stabilizer floats with our Link Arms adapter and extension arm. Price is for 2 adapters and 2 arms. Can be used with all our 2 float stabilizer systems. (Note extreme extension is for going slowly or staying in one place, only). The extension arms do not have clamps on them for the vertical float tubes. They have a spring button on one end to lock them when they slide into the crossbar and they are blank (no fitting) on the other end. The link arms adapters slide along the extension arms and lock by means of a clamp that is built into the adapter.
Note: If you are modifying a 4-float system and already have 4 arms, this is the wrong item for you. You want just a pair of adapters, which is item 5050 (click) instead, because you don't need more arms. You only need the adapters.
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.

4 Rubber expansion nuts (well nuts) - Makes installation easy on sit-op-tops Rubber insert with brass female thread allows bolt-on installation even when you can't get to the back side to hold a nut.

Just drill hole, insert rubber nut (rubber collar keeps it from falling through and seals hole), and screw in your bolt. As you tighten, rubber shaft on inside scrunches up so rubber nut resists pulling out and holds your accessory firmly. Set of 4.

Bolt-on gunwale J brackets accept gunwale clamp aka false gutters If your canoe or fishing boat has no gunwale lip or only a rounded gunwale lip with no good surface underneath for our gunwale clamps to get a good hold on, you need these brackets. You drill and bolt on, or rivet on, these brackets at each location where a gunwale clamp will be and the clamp grabs the bracket just like it was a gunwale lip. We supply bolts or rivets (email us which to send -- use rivets if you can't get to back side - requires a pop riveting tool, which is not an expensive tool to buy if you don't have one). Called "false gutters" because they also work for clamp-on roof racks for vehicles without rain gutters. Need 3 pair for a canoe sail kit; one pair for stabilizer. Sold by the pair. Profile is like an upside-down J. No shipping will be charge automatically and it is free shipping for these if you are buying something else significant.

Has draw string. Specify canoe length and width in comment block of checkout. From Whitewater Designs.
Suction Cup Roof Rack w/out loading bars. Just like item 5080 but without loading bars, to save money. No reason to have loading bars on both roof racks, so buy one like this and the other with loading bars if your want them. Price is for one roof rack.
Please specify length (53" or 65") depending on width of your vehicle. Please specify suction cup feet (most common) or rain gutter feet (rare, because most vehicles these days do not have the old-fashion rain gutters). Suction cup feet are very secure, because a strap goes through your door frames (or window for the rear rack on a van) and across the interior at the ceiling and that is what holds it down to the car, not the suction cups.

Ash Motor Mount for Trolling Motor on Canoe Beautiful and economical reinforced wood motor mount for your canoe. Trolling motors only. Ash wood, stainless steel clamps, phenolic knobs. Made in USA. Maximum width it can open up to is about 16 inches. If that's not enough then you need to look at our Super Strong motor mount or hinged motor mount (item 5052 and item 5053). They open up to 20 inches and offer an optional extension that takes them out to 30 inches. (Bear in mind that Pelican and Coleman canoes have a better gunwale lip on the outside, so your motor mount on these canoes needs to span outside to outside distance.)

Our 45 SF sail in blue white yellow (Sail F45) 45 SF sail with blue at the top, white in the middle and yellow on the bottom. Fits Sea Snark, Super Snark, Sea Eagel, SOAR, Spring Creek and our rigs. Please give postal address. Nylon. No logo.
45 SF light blue/dark blue sail no logo. By Priority Mail. 45 SF sail in alternating colors of light blue and dark blue. Fits Sea Snark, Super Snark, Sea Eagel, SOAR, Spring Creek and our rigs. Please give postal address. Nylon. No lettering.
55 SF Nylon Sail No Logo, Light Blue/Dark Blue 55 SF nylon sail for Sunflower sailboats or our sail kits (only the ones with heavy duty mast and spar extension). Alternating panels of very light blue and navy blue.
55 SF Nylon Sail in Yellow/White/Blue (F55), fits Sunflower 3.3 55 SF nylon sail in yellow/white/blue color combination. Fits Sunflower sailboats and, with addition of a spar extension, fits our rigs. Does not say "Sunflower" on foot of sail near rear (picture is wrong)
Mast step (socket) The mast step is the metal socket that receives the bottom of the mast and holds it vertical. Click image to enlarge. This can be directly bolted to a solid, strong surface or it can clamp around a crossbar, such as our front crossbar for the Kayak, dinghy, and h-type canoe sail kits. For the V-style canoe sail kit, order the canoe mast step and foot instead, so you get the additional parts needed to brace to the bottom of the canoe. Accepts 1 1/4 inch outside diameter mast. We have 2 styles, a square barrel one and a round barrel one. No functional difference, it just so happens we source them from 2 different manufacturers and one likes welding square things and the other likes welding round. We'll send whichever one our hand lands on when we reach in the box unless you express a preference. These mast steps are so strong they are the only support needed for your mast if they are strongly connected to the boat. No stays (guy wires) required. These are also useful in a variety of non-marine construction applications to hold up posts or used upside down to connect a top rail to a post. Material is marine-grade aluminum. Often bought together with mast, spars and sail, item 5000.
White Dacron Sail - 45 SF size 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 Super Snark, Sea Snark, Sea Eagle Paddleski, Spring Creek and our rigs set up for 45 SF sail. More pictures click here.
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.

Pair of float arms with lever locks Pair of float arms for the stabilizer system. These are the horizontal arms that slide into the crossbar clamped to your boat. They have a spring button in one end that engages a hole in the crossbar to lock the telescoping action. On the other end they have lever-lock clamps to receive the round vertical float tube coming up from the pontoon float.
Leeboard Unit with One Blade and gunwale clamps One blade is all you need to give increased steering control with a motor. This is the leeboard crossbar, gunwale clamps, and one blade. (See item 5056 for 2-blade version). Comes with 2 single-tube crossbars (a 31-incher and a 41-incher). Use the short one where the canoe is narrow or use the long one anywhere on the canoe. Custom length crossbar available by request (use order comment space at checkout). But a 31 and a 41 should serve all needs because it can overhang.
Substitute special Mad River Adventure type clamp Adding this item to your order deletes standard gunwale clamps and substitutes in one pair of special clamps suitable for the Mad River Adventure and Wavewalk Kayak and similar plastic boats.

Upgrade to 55 SF Neil Pryde Sail & Heavy Duty Mast This is just like item 5011 except the sail is a Neil Pryde International Dacron sail. This cannot be ordered by itself. It can only be added to an order that includes a sail kit. It DELETES the 45 SF nylon sail in your order and SUBSTITUTES IN a Neil Pryde 55 SF sail. It also (a) adds the spar extension you will need for the larger sail and (b) upgrades the mast in your order to the heavy duty mast.
A Neil Pryde sail has premium quality workmanship with extra heavy stitching and reinforcement at stress points. The fabric is heavier and therefore less stretchy and more durable. Our other sails also perform well, but we offer this item for those who want the very best and don't mind paying a bit more for it. Four color schemes to choose from. See the color options on the page where we sell these sails by themselves here but don't buy anything there; please just look at the pictures there and then tell us the color scheme you want in the order comment space when you check out (Joy, Candy Stripes, Blue/Grey Stripes or Spring).
This is the piece you need to add to our spar set in order for the spars to work with a 55 SF sail. Includes spring button. No additional for shipping if you buy something else at same time. Otherwise, if ordered by itself, we'll add $10 shipping after your order is in our system.
Does not fit Snark OEM spars. Only ours. If you only have our standard mast (87 inches) you will find the boom is really low with the 55 SF sail. Considering getting the taller Heavy Duty Mast for our sail kits. Or for an OEM Snark mast get our Adjustable Mast Extension. Note: The Heavy Duty Mast does not fit a Snark and the Snark mast extensions do not fit the masts for our sail kits. Two incompatible standards.
Steering oar crossbar and gunwale clamps for canoe Adjustable-length rear crossbar for the canoe sail kit. Consists of a telescoping crossbar with oarpin sockets and 2 gunwale clamps (not shown) for clamping it to the canoe. This is included with the canoe sail kit. Order steering oar separately (not included with crossbar). Steering oar and oarpin is item 5031 (click).
5 Tubes of Vinyl Repair Cement Five tubes at one low price. Each tube contains 0.2 oz. Packaging it this way keeps it fresh. 40% MEK, 10% Toluene, 10% Acetone, 30% Polyurethane, 10% Ethyl Acetate. We tested it on a Navigator and it worked great.Dinghy sail kit options, upgrades and accessories page: Click Here.
We will only send this by ground, so no foreign orders please. Free shipping applies to lower 48 states only.
Telescoping leeboard crossbar with gunwale clamps Telescoping crossbar for mounting leeboards on a canoe. Leeboards not included. Includes mounts. Two gunwale clamps are included.
(note: This item number used to be used for the spar extension. See item 5160 now for spar extension.)
Aluminum folding cart for deflated boats and folded sail kits Perfect cart to carry deflated boats and folded up sail kits. Folds flat to fit in your vehicle. Marine aluminum. Also good for carrying inflated boats -- just rest boat on cart, secure with straps and tip slightly foward, pushing or pulling on the boat. Large wheels, great for uneven terrain. 55-by-30-3/4-by-23-inches unfolded. Occupies just 2 square feet folded. You'll find many more uses for this cart around your yard as a general purpose utility cart.
55 SF Nylon Sail - White with Rainbow Stripes (D55) Sail fits Sunflower sailboats and our own rigs that have been upgraded to the 55 SF sail size. Nylon. No logo. Our most popular color scheme!
One Hydrodynamic Stabilizer Float Just a single hydrodynamic float with vertical tube. Vertical tube removes with pin and stores in groove along top of float. Spring Creek brand. 5-year manufacturer's warranty. Replacement part or component for your custom project. Not a complete stabilizer system by itself. Available in grey, red, or yellow (specify color in comments section of checkout screen or email jim@sailboatsToGo.com). If you don't specify, we will send grey.
SUT-350-S Trailex Trailer 18 ft. 6 in. long - shipping To Be Determined This trailer will carry a canoe, kayak or other narrow boat up to 22' long. Its light spring suspension gives it a capacity of 350 pounds. Trailer is 18' 6" long X 4' 6" wide with 3 feet between the fenders. More details, accessories and pictures click here
Optional 12-inch wheels in place of 8-inch can be substituted by adding item 5189 to your trailer order.
Mast, spars, sail, ropes, mast slide in 55 SF size Heavy duty mast (about 8 ft tall x 1 1/4-in. diameter), 55 sf nylon sail, folding spar set with spar extension, ropes (halyard, sheet, downhaul), mast slide. Nylon sail available in any of our standard color schemes for nylon sail. Or you can upgrade the sail to a white dacron or Neil Pryde dacron in one of our standard Neil Pryde color schemes.
If considering this package for a DIY project, bear in mind that our 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.
Even our heavy duty mast is a bit "bendy" in strong winds. It won't fail, but if you want a much stiffer mast then get the upgrade to the Super Heavy Duty mast . This will upgrade the bottom extenstion as well, if one is in the same order.
White Nylon Sail - 55SF - fits Sunflower 3.3 A classic white nylon sail at a discounted price. Same quality as our other 55 SF nylon sails (Excellent!) but lower in price. Fits Sunflower sailboats or our 55 SF sail kits.
Lever locks (1 pair) to upgrade your old stabilizer Pair of lever lock mechanisms to upgrade your pre-2012 stabilizers from knob-actuated clamps to lever lock clamps. Please provide a postal address unless you are ordering more items at the same time (in which case we can use UPS). In the photo, the lever lock is the blue part, and it comes with the hardware needed for converting you existing arms. The arms are not included with this item, but part of one arm is shown in the photo for illustrative purposes.
7-foot flat blade oar with aluminum shaft that slides apart and together in the middle for easy transport and storage on land and in the boat. Stainless steel spring button locks the 2 halves together. Rubber grip. Strong oar, not a toy. Go ahead and put your back into rowing -- it won't fail. Shaft is 1 1/8" diameter. It will fit through the oarlocks of most inflatable boats (take apart in middle to fit through oarlock). You can purchase oar together with metal clamp-on oarlock at item 5031. Get two oars and you can join the two blade section together to make a double-bladed kayak paddle (see item 5175 for joining sleeve). This makes a great steering oar for sailing too.

Joiner Sleeve for Oars -- Makes Kayak Paddle out of 2 steering oars
Join two item 5174 oar blades together to make one double-ended paddle. Allows blades to be in same orientation or feathered at 90 degrees. The standard one is short and makes a kayak paddle just as long as 2 blade sections (about 7 feet). We can custom-make a longer one for you for $15 extra if you want it to be 7 1/2 or 8 feet.

Upgrade SUT Trailex Trailer to 12-inch wheels Upgrade to easier rolling 12-inch wheels by adding this item to your order when ordering an SUT Trailex Trailer.

Can Be Added To Any SUT Product.
Do not inflate to 90 lbs.
Refer to tire tag on trailer for proper inflation.
OVER INFLATION WILL CAUSE DAMAGE TO TRAILER.
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.
Sunflower parts package: Everything but hull & deck Sunflower 55 SF Sail, mast, spars, ropes, dagger board, gudgeon if you need it, rudder & tiller assembly, rudder L pin. If you have the hull and splash deck, this is everything else in one low-shipping-cost package! And the rudder, mast, spars, daggerboard and boom guide are all our better versions, not OEM. Please state whether you need a gudgeon (black plastic piece on the back to receive the rudder pin).
Choose any of our nylon sails -- Click Here for nylon sail options. Specify sail choice in comment blank during checkout. (Even if you only have the hull and not the splash deck, this will get you sailing again because the splash deck is not essential and if you want, you can make one yourself from rigid foam insulation board.)
. Not only does our stuff work better than the OEM equivalents, we're also better about shipping promptly and with these upgrades, everything will be coming from us. Nothing from the factory.
Remember: State sail choice and whether you need gudgeon.
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.

Sunflower sail, mast, spars, spar extension, mast slide, and ropes
Sail, mast, spars, spar extension, mast slide, and ropes for the Sunflower sailboat. Choose any nylon sail in the 55 SF size that we have in stock. See www.tinyurl.com/nylonsails for choices. Or add the upgrade to a Dacron sail.
Great package price and look at that low shipping cost! Better than original equipment -- stronger spars, a swiveling mast slide (boom guide assembly), better ropes, stainless steel eye for the halyard instead of pastic.
Consider also getting a bag. We have full length bags to protect everything and keep it all together without folding the spars and sail. Great for car topping and for storage. See item 5190.
To select your sail color scheme, and/or to upgrade to Dacron material at an additional cost, please go here. Once there, you can add your nylon color scheme selection to your order at no cost, or add a white Dacron or Neil Pryde colored Dacron upgrade at additional cost.
Customer comment:
"This is a much higher quality set than I had expected. The materials and craftsmanship are very good, and the online explanatory videos are really useful. Shipping was amazingly fast."
Sunflower mast, spars, rudder, dagger board, cleat, gudgeon Got a Sunflower hull and 55 SF sail but almost nothing else? Here is in one package: the mast, spar set for 55 SF sail, rudder and tiller assembly, L pin, gudgeon, daggerboard and cleat. May be 2 separate shipments.
Gudgeon for Super Snark, Sea Snark, Sunflower, Sea Skimmer P62010 This is the plastic piece that attaches to the transom (back of the boat) and accepts the rudder pin to connect the rudder to the boat. The OEM version is all plastic but ours has a black plastic base plate and black-painted aluminum fittings mounted to it to accept the rudder pin. No iron or steel so no rust!
This will not work as a replacement for the older gudgeon that looks like half a door hinge unless you also replace your rudder with a modern one. And if you are buying a new rudder for an old boat with "door-hinge" gudgeon, you need this gudgeon to mount the new rudder.
This is small and light, so we will not charge shipping if we can just throw it in the box with other stuff you are ordering that has enough of a shipping charge, but if we can't then we will charge $8 shipping to your card in a day or 2.
Snark rudder L pin - Free ship if in larger order. Otherwise, $7 Rudder L pin for Super Snark, Sea Snark, Sea Skimmer and Sunflower. Original equipment. Alternative: Consider our better-than-original rudder pin (item 5199) with an eye at the top you can tie a cord to and a threaded bottom with wing nut so you don't have to fiddle with a cotter pin every time you mount or unmount the rudder. Note free shipping is only if ordered with other items that carry a shipping charge of their own. If ordered by itself or with other free-shipping items, $7 shipping will be added after the order goes through initially.
Rudder Head for Super Snark, Sunflower and Skimmer P62020 Black plastic rudder head, which is the piece the tiller and rudder blade connect to and which also connects to the gudgeon by means of the L pin. P62020 RUDDER HEAD ASSEMBLY
These are ordered from Snark for direct shipment to customer. Snark can be slow to fulfill orders, so please be patient. Expect 10 days to 2 weeks, but feel free to inquire after a week.
Snark Rudder L Pin Better Version - A Pin with Eye & Wingnut A better pin for the rudder of your Super or Sea Snark, Sunflower, or Sea Skimmer. The standard L-pin is easy to lose and the cotter pin that goes with it is a tiny thing that's frustrating to fiddle with at the water's edge and even easier to lose. So forget them! Our better rudder pin has an eye at the top so you can tie a cord onto it and tie the other end (with slack) to the rudder so you don't lose the darn pin! And at the other end is an easy-to-install wing nut, instead of a tiny hard-to-install cotter pin.
Package deal to consider: You get a free one of these better rudder pins when you order a better rudder blade from us. The better blade is bigger for more control and better because it is not wood. Also included with that package is a better lock nut for the blade angle adjustment -- one that you can turn by hand eliminating the need for a wrench, yet it stays put where you set it. See item 5604 better rudder blade.
Note free shipping is only if ordered with other items that carry a shipping charge of their own. If ordered by itself or with other free-shipping items, $7 shipping will be added after the order goes through initially.
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.
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.
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

14'6" and width is 76" but don't worry about it being too big because the extra material folds over and the straps secure it. For watercraft of 11-foot to 14.5 foot length. (Next two sizes up are the Ranger for 14.5 to 16.5 foot boats and the Scount for 16.5 footers up to 18.5 feet, costing $20 more or $40 more respectively).

Adjustable Mast Extension for Super Snark, Etc. Allows choice of how much taller you make your mast. Settings provided are 6 inches, 11 inches or 15 inches, approximately, so you can go higher with it than with the 5211 extension. With the 15-inch setting, your 84-inch mast becomes 99 inches, same as a Sunflower 3.3 mast, so you can switch to 55-square-foot sail and spar set. The extension has 1 1/8" inside diameter, so it fits over your existing mast, taking the place of the plastic mast cap. No mast cap required; stainless-steel eye at the top for the halyard instead.
Looks like the 5211, except longer, with additional holes so you can move the stop bolt to choose the degree of extension achieved.
Mast extension for Super Snark, Sunflower or Sea Snark replaces mast cap Get more headroom under your boom! This item replaces the mast cap and extends the top of your mast 6 inches. The mast cap is no longer needed because this extension has a beautiful stainless steel or thermoplastic eye at the top for your halyard. Free shipping in lower 48 states. Having the boom higher also means you can heel over more without the boom hitting the water -- a great benefit for those who like to push the limits for sailing thrills! Fits standard OEM masts, not our own masts. A taller mast makes a big difference in comfort in the Super Snark. Theoretically, it reduces stability a little, but the effect is so minor you probably will not even notice it. And, any time you want to revert to the original sail height, that's easily done.
Also consider item 5209, which offers a choice of height settings up to 15 inches of extension, and is similar in principle.
Snark Rig - Everything for a Snark but Hull Found a Super Snark or Sea Snark hull at a yard sale but lack all the other parts? This is your package! It's a complete sailboat minus the hull, and it includes the SailboatsToGo premium-quality equipment:
Sail (choice of color schemes), mast (adjustable height, for more headroom), spars (stronger than OEM), ropes, boom guide assembly (swiveling), rudder (high performance with bigger blade), tiller (adjustable length), gudgeon if needed, rudder pin (better pin with eye), daggerboard (better version in plastic).
Not included because they usually are not lost: Mast seat (the wooden bench screwed to the hull), the eyebolt at the bow, and the mast sleeve (the metal insert going from the mast seat into the hull. These are available at extra cost. If the gudgeon on your snark is black plastic and not metal, tell us and we'll delete the gudgeon from your order and refund $10. The gudgeon is the fitting on the back that the rudder attaches to. Older models have a metal gudgeon that will not mate up with the modern rudder. The current gudgeon design is black plastic and it is screwed to outside of transom.
Choose any of our 45 SF nylon sails shown at our sail options page (click). and tell us your choice in the comment section of checkout. This price is a 10% discount from the total of individual prices and gives you a discounted shipping total as well. Your order will be fulfilled in 2 separate shipments. Mast and spars will be our better equipment, not OEM. If you want our better daggerboard and better rudder instead of OEM equipment for these two items as well, say so in the order comments and we will charge additional $45 to your card and send them too; in that case all will be in one shipment. For this $40 you get more reliably fast shipment of your order (the factory is often slow) and better components for the daggerboard and rudder.
This all-aluminum canoe motor mount is sturdy and versatile. Available in many different lengths so it can span a wide canoe. Made from the same aluminum extrusion as our crossbars so it can accept our slip-on wheels. The block where the motor clamps on is 4 inches tall by 8 inches wide. Standard over-all lengths are 36 inches, 40 inches and 45 inches (including the 8-inch block) so the different size motor mounts can span up to (respectively) 28 inches, 32 inches or 37 inches. Custom lengths are $20 more and if over 47 inches, require manual figuring of shipping cost, to be added on. Specify length in the comments section of your checkout page.The clamps slide to align with your canoe gunwales so it can't be too long. Extra length can just overhang. Most people will do fine with the 36 incher, so we'll send that if you don't specify. Options: For Mad River Adventure, Mycanoe and similar canoes request special clamps in comment section of checkout. If you want us to add the holes so this motor mount will also act as a crossbar to accept any of our canoe stabilizer floats and arms (such as item 1006), request in comment section that it be drilled ($10 extra) for the stabilizer snap buttons. More pictures and details on the Aluminum Motor Mount for Canoe CLICK HERE. Motors up to 3 HP.
Review by a customer: "Best Motor Mount I Ever Tried" "I used this motor mount today on my old town tripper canoe ,with a 40lb thrust minkota endura max . it is extremely strong , there was no flex ,at all , the clamp worked great very secure ,they did not loosen at even with the motor at full power. 20 years ago i bought my first trolling motor for this canoe , but after trying several mount out of frustration i made my own . 20 years later my mount is showing its age , and i saw this one FANTASTIC i don't have to make a new one . Simple design fast to install , lightweight , yet incredibly strong at a great price !"
For MyCanoe owners, be sure to ask for special version in your order comments.
Any Length Aluminum Motor Mount with Stabilizers for Canoes
This is a motor mount and stabilizer in one product! Same as the item 5215 but with the addition of hydrodynamic stabilizer floats (pontoons) to help keep your canoe from flipping.
We drill the Any Length Motor Mount with the hole pattern required to accept stabilizer pontoon float arms and we provide a pair of streamlined hard plastic floats on telescoping arms. (Hydrodynamic floats). Floats adjust up and down and in and out. Motors up to 3 HP.
Standard lengths are 32, 36 or 45 inches but you can specify a length in order comments. Lengths over 47 inches will incur additional shipping, which will be manually quoted for you after you order. The block is 8 inches, so a 32 has 24 inches of crossbar to span the canoe before you get to the block; a 36 has 28 inches net of the block and a 45 has 37 inches net of the block.
Customer comment: "I just wanted to send you a Thank You for everything! The stabilizers worked amazingly! The canoe is very stable with the engine on it and I can easily set the whole thing up by myself, which is what I wanted. I am finally able to do what I set out to do. All the best to you!"
We recommend this 2 float version, because you may overcompensate on a turn and start to flip the other way, but if you want to save money and have a float only on the motor side, see item 5217.
To make your floats self-aligning, foolproof against accidentally twisting, and more convenient to adjust upgrade the float arms in this order to square post type by adding item 1031. High recommended! A Sailboats To Go exclusive innovation! More information at the writeup of item 1031.
Specify float color in order comment space during checkout -- grey, yellow or red. For MyCanoe owners, be sure to ask for special version in your order comments.

Complete Rowing Package without Stabilizer Floats with Fixed Span Rowing Outriggers, Flat Blade Oars, and Drop-In Seat. Complete Rowing Package (fixed span rowing outriggers, crossbar with gunwale clamps, drop-in seat, oars and oarpins) without stabilizer floats. Ready to accept our stabilizer floats if you want to add them.
This item comes with 7-ft. flat-bladed oars. Please specify crossbar length in comment section of checkout (standard lengths are 36, 40 and 45 inches and it should be long enough to span your canoe with just a little overhang). MORE INFO CLICK HERE. Same item but with spoon-blade oars is item 5076.
Rowing Package with Fixed-Span Rowing Outriggers, Drop-in Seat, and Spoon Oars
Same as package item 5076 but with Spring Creek fixed-span (non-adjustable) rowing outriggers. 7 1/2 foot oar length. Please specify crossbar length (standard lengths are 36, 40 or 45 inches and it should be long enough to span your canoe with a little overhang). MORE ROWING PRODUCT INFO CLICK HERE.
The trade-off between adjustable and non-adjustable rowing outriggers: The adjustable can be used any where on your canoe with any length crossbar that spans the canoe width. They are more compact for storage and transport and cost less. The fixed-span (non-adjustable) rowing outrigggers in this package are more durable. The adjustable are durable enough for most recreational rowers. But if you are doing wilderness rowing on long trips, or working out every day for long periods, we recommend the non-adjustable.
Substitutions are allowed: If you prefer the accessory seat or the yoke seat instead of the drop-in seat, just put a note in the order comments space during checkout.
Please put a note in the order comments space during checkout specifying length of the crossbar (30", 36", 40", 45", 46" -- should be long enough to span the canoe where you will use it, and not more than 6 inches longer than that. For the few canoes that have outside-lip gunwales, needs to be 4 inches longer than width.)
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).
one standard leeboard and one half mount One standard (phenolic) leeboard with the part of the quick-release mount that stays attached to the leeboard.
Upgrade oars from flat blade to spoon blade This is an upgrader item and cannot be ordered by itself. This upgrades the oars in a rowing package order from flat blade 7-foot oars to spoon blade 7.5-foot oars. In other words, it makes a substitution.
Both types of oars break down into 2 parts for easy transport and storage.
The spoon blade oars are more efficient, heavier duty (larger diameter shaft), and have the added benefit of making one kayak paddle if you take apart the oars and put the two blade sections together.

Marine Deep Cycle Battery - Lead Acid, 55 amp hour
Sealed spill proof battery for trolling motors. 55 amp-hour capacity. Weighs about 40 pounds. Yes, it will fit in the battery box power center we sell, and so will the larger one described below. If you want longer run time, we can offer a 100 amp-hour similar battery that weighs about 60 pounds. It costs $70 more. Or get two of these batteries and two battery boxes. If you want the bigger battery, just order this one and put in the order comments to upgrade to the 100 amp hour battery. We'll manually charge your card the $70 difference.
Consider getting a lithium battery instead -- it is lighter, lasts more years, and will take you farther on a charge. See our item 5350, lithium battery and charger.
Here's a complete package of motor, battery, and battery box:
A lithium battery has an expected life of 10 years vs. 3 years for conventional lead-acid trolling motor batteries. So yes, you pay more up front but you get 3 times the life. In addition, you get more miles per charge for the same amp-hour rating, because the lithium battery continues to put out full voltage until it is almost dead, whereas the conventional lead acid battery loses voltage steadily while it is powering your motor. It requires a special charger, so we sell battery and charger together as one bundle. Make sure you take into account the cost of a charger if doing price comparisons to a battery-only price. Finally, the weight of a lithium battery is less than half that of a comparable lead-acid battery. This battery is ONLY 30 POUNDS!
How far can you go on this battery? With most boats, most motors, most conditions the range would be 5 to 10 miles if you start with a full charge.
If you are fighting a current or a headwind, that reduces range. A tail wind or favorable current increases range. Heavier and/or less streamlined boats will have less range. If you go at a medium speed you'll have more range than if you go at top speed.
Here is the basis for this range estimate: A 36-pound thrust trolling motor draws about 29 amps at top speed. So it should run for 3+ hours on a 100 amp hour battery (100/29 > 3). A lightweight, low-drag boat facing no headwind should go 3 to 4 miles per hour at top speed on this trolling motor. So, in theory, range would be 9 to 12 miles.
Alternatively, a 55-pound-thrust motor would draw about 52 amps at top speed and propel the boat at, perhaps, 5 mph. It would run for just under two hours and so at top speed range would be not quite 10 miles. Your boat might only do 3 mph under a given set of conditions, in which case figure range of just under 6 miles.
No guantees on range: As you can see, there are many variables that matter. If you want more range, carry two batteries. Contact us for a package.
Accessory Seat for Canoe - Accepts Row Arms etc. Clamp this sturdy comfortable seat onto your canoe. It's side pieces accept snap-in or slip-on accessories like our rowing outriggers, slip-on wheels, leeboards -- even stabilizer floats!
Eliminates the need for a separate crossbar and gunwale clamps for these accessories.
Nice wide, cushioned seat bottom and strong enough for heavy people. Generous 8" x 14" seat cushion, with space for hips well beyond that 14" width.
Packages available that include seat and various accessories
Width is very adjustable. From 22 inches narrow to 42 inches wide (38 inches max for outside-lip canoe, but we can accommodate special requests for wider. What does "outside lip" mean? Canoes have a little horizontal projection at their top edge (gunwale) like a miniature shelf running the full length of the canoe on both sides. Our clamps reach under this lip to clamp the seat down. On most canoes, the lip is on the inside (cockpit side, where you sit) but on some the lip is on the outside, over the water. When it is on the outside, our clamps will have to be on the outside, requiring the seat sides to overhang the gunwale by 2 inches. Since 2 + 2 = 4, using the seat on an outside-lip canoe subtracts 4 inches from the maximum width. So for these canoes, max width is reduced from 42 to 38 inches. But remember -- we can set yours up to go wider if you request it. There will be a comment space available on the final checkout page where you could enter such a request.
This is a great seat, of our own invention. We have been selling it for several years and people have been quite happy with it.

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.
Kayak Stabilizer with Square-Post System & Hydrodynamic Floats
Hydrodynamic kayak stabilizer with our exclusive square post vertical tube so floats are always perfectly aligned and vertical adjustment is a one-hand, no-strain knob to lock and unlock. 30-inch crossbar (if you prefer 36", 40" or 46" say so in order comments).
For explanation and photos comparing round post vs square post Click Here (The comparison is for a canoe stabilizer, but all the same principles apply).
Outrigger floats, crossbar, mounting legs and special low-profile brackets for attaching the mounting legs to the deck of your kayak. Sit-on-top kayaks that lack any hatch to get to underside of deck near mounting location can still use these stabilizers; you just need to purchase the rubber well nuts (expansion nuts) we sell so it can be mounted entirely from the top.
State color preference (red, yellow, grey) in order commments.
for an extra pair of deck brackets, so that you can transfer kayak stabilizer easily from one kayak to another or from fore deck to rear deck, click item 5104.

Super Strong Motor Mount for Wavewalk Kayak Canoe-style motor mount clamps onto the cockpit rim of the Wavewalk kayak and accepts small motors. Not a part of our modular pontoon/wheel kit/sail kit/motor mount system. This is just a plain motor mount. Extremely sturdy and well made. Regular canoe motor mounts will not work. This one is long enough (comes with extension on the bar to make it long enough) and has the special clamps to fit Wavewalk gunwale.
Hinged Motor Mount for Wavewalk Kayak Like item 6036 but it has a hinged block that your trolling motor clamps onto, instead of fixed block. Advantage: If you hit an underwater object, the motor will tip up, turning it into glancing blow. Disadvantage: Not good for running motor in reverse and tipping up with motor's own tip-up mechanism is a little tricky.

All with no addition to your shipping cost.
IMPORTANT: This item can only be purchased together with a sail kit or sailboat in the same order. It cannot be ordered by itself.
Consider adding stabilizers to help keep you right-side-up, if not already included in your order.*
*Certain kayak models clearly require stabilizers and so we include them as basic equipment. Dinghies and some other kayaks are stable enough that many people will not feel they need stabilizers, so we make them optional. Sail kits may or may not include stabilizers -- check the description. If stabilizers are not mentioned as being included in the description of an item, they are not included.
high back inflatable seat Sea Eagle deluxe inflatable seat. Price is for one seat. We use this in kind of an unusual way: When sailing an inflatable kayak, we sit on the floor and use this seat as a backrest. The bottom part is turned around facing backward and shoved under the rear crossbar so it is out of the way, and that big fat cushiony upper part of the seat (the back support) is between our back and the rear crossbar of the sail rig. The rear crossbar is strong enough to lean back against and it supports the seat back nicely. You can even attach the strap going over the rear crossbar, so the seat is secured to the boat in that manner.

Rudder with kick-up blade, aluminum body, tiller and rudder pin. Requires two eyebolts (included) be mounted to boat's transom to accept rudder pin. Shown here on a soft transom inflatable with our rudder-mount kit, which is not included in this item. For this rudder with the rudder mount kit for soft-transom inflatables see item 2044. To upgrade this rudder at time of ordering to substitute a polycarbonate blade (lighter, unbreakable) order this item 7003 plus item 5193 .

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

Better Daggerboard for Super Snark. Sunflower, Sea Skimmer - Unbreakable - Slides Easy - Does not float up - Ships Fast
Our better-than-original dagger board for the Super Snark, Sea Snark, Sunflower and Sea Skimmer. Usually shipped within 3 business days of your order. Better because:
- Made of a tough synthetic material. No more worries about delaminating plywood. - Stronger, which is important if you are pulling on it to right a capsized boat - Thinner and smoother so it slips in and out easily. - Fully covers the slot in the boat so less chance for water to spray up through the slot in rough conditions. - Less buoyant so it will not float up. - Shipped from our own inventory so your order is not delayed by factory order processing time.
For lower-cost similar synthetic daggerboard, discounted due to warp, see item 7971. For OEM wood dagger board to be ordered for you from the factory see item 8010.
Stabilizer pontoons for Snark Sunchaser Hydrodynamic stabilizer pontoons to help prevent capsizing on the Sunchaser. Goes just behind the mast. There's a crossbar that straps to the boat and the pontoon arms slide into that and lock with a spring button. Maximum span between floats about 8 feet, so you get great leverage to multiply the buoyancy of the floats. Similar to item 8007 (stabilizer for Super Snarks and Sunflowers) but with longer crossbar to span the wider boat and slightly different attachment method.
Snark and Sunflower Stabilizer Pontoons Greatly reduce risk of capsizing and increase feeling of security. Hydrodynamic streamlined stabilizer floats and anodized aluminum hardware. Attaches in 2 minutes using 2 straps (included). No drilling or other modification to your boat. If you want color other than gray, specify yellow, or red in the comment section of checkout page. Foam blocks (included) cushion point of contact between metal crossbar and your boat. Strap wraps under the boat, putting no more stress on it than a strap holding a boat to a roof rack. Customer writes: "I recently purchased a stabilizer system for my boat from Sailboats To Go and it has made my sailing experiences more pleasurable as I don't have to worry about shifting from side to side anymore to prevent capsizing..." (OJ Fisher, October 2010) See Video: Click Here
New improvement available!! Consider adding the new "Square Post Upgrade" for greater security and convenience. See item 1031 (click).
For stabilizer with inflatable pontoons, lower price, and all the same features as above, PLUS square post as standard Click Here.
Add versatility to your sailboat hull! No, you probably would not want this rowing rig aboard while you are sailing, but you may often want to go rowing instead of sailing, without buying a different boat for the purpose.
Includes: Oars, oarlocks, aluminum arms to receive oarlocks, and seat (now a plastic seat with cushion top that sits centered, not full width wood seat). Entire unit straps to your hull, cushioned by foam blocks. Straps and blocks also included. If you want to be more stable, we offer 2 different styles of stabilizer floats (pontoons) on outrigger arms that snap into the rowing unit. Add item 1006 (hard plastic streamlined deluxe pontoons) or item 1013 (inflatable pontoons). If you want to be able to use the pontoons for sailing also, say that in the comment section during checkout and we will provide the additional little parts and instructions to adapt your pontoons for sailing (free with purchase of rowing rig and pontoons -- some of the parts from the rowing rig must also be utilized when putting pontoons on your boat for sailing)! Note: item 1006 pontoons are best for sailing.
Stabilizer w/square posts for Snarks and Sunflowers Our square-post hydrodynamic stabilizer system, specially adapted for Snarks and Sunflowers with a cushioned strap-on attachment system. Stay right-side up when you are sailing! Add these outrigger pontoons to your Sea Snark, Super Snark, or Sunflower sailboat.
Pontoons available in red, yellow, or grey. Please specify color in comments section of checkout or else we'll send grey.
Includes our exclusive square-post system that makes the floats self-aligning and is more convenient to adjust than the standard round-post system. See explanation (click here).
See item 8007 for the lower-priced round-post version.
Dagger Board for Super Snark, Sunflower, etc 62420
Replacement daggerboard, original equipment (plywood). Allow about 2 - 3 weeks for delivery (shipped direct from Snark).
Alternative: consider item 7970, (click!) our better-than-original upgrade made of an unbreakable synthetic, shipped promptly from our own inventory.
Fits Sea Snark, Super Snark, Sea Skimmer, Sea Devil and Sunflower. Some might call it a centerboard or even a keel, but technically it is a dagger board because it slides up and down rather than being pivoted like a center board or fixed like a keel.
Complete rudder and Tiller Assembly for Snark and Sunflower P40119
Complete rudder and tiller assembly for Sea Snark, Super Snark, Sunflower, Sea Skimmer. Also consider our High Performance rudder, item 8024.
This item is compatible only with boats that have the black plastic fitting ("gudgeon plate") on the transom to receive the rudder pin. If you have metal fitting, you need to replace it with the plastic one (item 8012 is OEM rudder and gudgeon plate at one package price and item 8025 is the High Performance Rudder and tiller with gudgeon at one package price. ).
We don't stock this item. We order it from the factory for direct shipment to you. The factory is often very slow processing orders and does not routinely provide tracking numbers, but will if asked. Their slowness is another reason to consider ordering our rudder instead.
Complete OEM rudder, tiller and gudgeon assembly for Snark and Sunflower
OEM rudder and tiller assembly and the black plastic gudgeon plate (pictured) that attaches to transom. For same thing but with our better rudder instead of OEM rudder, see item 8025.
If you have the old metal fitting (gudgeon) to receive the rudder pin, and you need a rudder replacement, then you need this item or the 8025 because the metal-to-metal system has been discontinued. This is now the OEM factory standard equipment.
But remember: for our "High Performance Rudder and Tiller" plus the gudgeon order item 8025
High Performance Rudder for Super Snark & Sunflower
This better-than-OEM Snark rudder ships from our inventory so you get it faster! A better rudder in so many ways!
For Sea Skimmer rudder see item 8023 (same thing but with eye added to tiller).
- All metal rudder head, much stronger than the OEM plastic rudder head.
-Adjustable length tiller for flexibility in where you sit -Bigger rudder blade for better control. And the blade is synthetic so it won't break or delaminate and neutral buoyancy so it won't float up. - Self-locking hand knob for adjusting blade angle and holding it in place. No wrench needed! - Rudder pin is an eyebolt with wingnut not an L-pin with cotter so it is so much easier to insert and you can tie a cord into the eye so the pin won't get lost!
Tiller length adjusts from 0 to a whopping 5 feet!
Usually leaves here in 2 business days, Monday thru Thursday.
The adjustable length tiller lets you sit farther forward when you sail solo and farther back when you have a passenger.
Has the wind ever overpowered your rudder when sailing downwind and forced the boat to turn into the wind? You'll stand a better chance of winning that fight with the bigger blade on this rudder.
Ever cursed the rudder L-pin when fumbling around to get it inserted and get that tiny cotter pin in? or out? Ever lost and L-pin? Those days are gone with the rudder pin on this rudder. It has a big eye on the top that's easy for fingers to grasp and allows you to tie a cord onto it. Tie the other end (with some slack) onto the rudder so you will never lose your pin. And the cotter pin is abolished! Instead, you have a convenient wing nut.
All these advantages, plus faster delivery and a great price!
Mates up to the current black plastic fitting on the transom. If you have the obsolete metal fitting, you need to order the black plastic one -- called a "gudgeon" -- and swap it onto your boat. See item 8025 for this rudder plus gudgeon. To order this item and the gudgeon as a package, click here.(Item 8025).
For OEM rudder with wood blade and non-adjustable tiller see item item 8011.

Super Stabilizer System for Canoe with Gigantic 11-foot Inflatable Pontoons

They have an extra layer of protection on the top and bottom. 11 feet long and 1 foot in diameter. The front cone point up to cut through the waves and the rear cone turns down flat to get the longest-possible waterline length, for lower drag. 6 stainless-steel D-rings on each pontoon.
The system includes: 2 Pontoons, 2 crossbars that clamp to your canoe, 4 clamps, 4 telescoping arms to hold the pontoons, and 8 straps to attach the pontoons to the arms.

Build your own catamaran or super stabilizer system. This listing is just for the pontoons -- no metal parts, no sail. These 11-foot inflatable pontoons are made of heavy-duty PVC and polyester 3-ply fabric, with an extra layer at wear points on top and bottom. A line of stainless steel D-rings on each side give you attachment points for incorporating them into your project. Great for the DIY sailor! Specify first, second and third choice for color, because colors are often out of stock. Potentially, there are green, red, blue and yellow. Price is for two pontoons.

Additional Shipping Cost for a Sail - Priority Mail Add this item to your cart along with your sail order to cover international Priority Mail postage and handing cost to any country other than the United States. This will cover our additional postage and handling cost. On your invoice you will see a domestic shipping cost and then this additional cost to bring the total shipping amount up to the required total.
This is the higher-cost shipping method. The post office estimates 10 days or less for Priority. If you want lower cost choose First-Class Mail instead. That is around half the cost but they do not give a time estimate and it will not have tracking. Our guess is 2 to 4 weeks for first-class. We have had good experience with first-class international mail.
