Product Description

Extremely portable and quick to set up.  And look at that low price!  This is the ideal setup for traveling light and setting up fast.  We take the Saturn TOW290 and put a folding lightweight sail kit on it that unfolds and straps on in a jiffy.   The hull is about 34 lbs. and the sail kit is about 32 lbs. Carries one or two people.  Cockpit floor space is about 2' x 5'.   This is a heavy-duty hull, not a mass-market pool toy.  It becomes firm when properly inflated.  See Video.

At this price, you get the hull, a wrap-style carry bag for the deflated hull, hand pump, patch kit and complete sail kit with one steering oar, 45 sq. ft. nylon sail, mast, spars, rigging, mast step, frame, leeboards and all necessary straps for attaching.  No modification of the hull is required.  No part of the sail kit is longer than 4 feet when folded. 

This makes a complete inflatable sailboat, capable of sailing downwind and across the wind, and tacking upwind.  All you need to supply is lifejackets, wind, water and time to enjoy it!

The steering oar can be used on the sides or in the middle like a center rudder, only it's better than a rudder because with a steering oar you will never be "stuck in irons" unable to complete a coming-about maneuver.   With a steering oar you can always take a stroke to swing the stern around even if you have lost forward momentum!   We really enjoy this boat.

Consider these upgrades  (see Options and Upgrades Page): 

Second steering oar so you can steer with either hand without shifting the oar to the other side. 

Steering balance tuner to allow fine-tuning of the amount of weather helm (= tendency to turn upwind).

Heavy duty, taller mast.

Package of heavy duty mast plus larger 55 SF sail.

Carry bag with shoulder strap for folded sail kit.   Everything fits in this 1'x1'x4' bag with room to spare for your lifejacket and the pump!
