Reviewer: Captain Jim Rating: 4 Date: 04/29/2012
Review: I use the sail on a Mirage Sport - works great. I made a furler for it, using some PVC and line; with that, I can furl the sail when the wind kicks up. The furled sail does make for some windage, though. Adding a caribeaner to the aft padeye makes the line move easier. I havent been able to rig the sail on the water maybe a function of old age and being less nimble, so the furler helps. The pedals in the mid position act like a daggerboard. Not a speedster, but it works.

Review: The sail is easy to set up and is a great alternative out on the lake. I do suggest changing out to a longer rudder when using the sail.

Reviewer: JT Rating: 5 Date: 11/26/2011
Review: The sail performs better than expected. Wish it were 30 sq.ft. vs 20.5 sq.ft. Sail has been used in 20+ mph winds with excellent handling. No complaints.

Reviewer: Gordon Rating: 3 Date: 08/22/2011
Review: The sail works pretty well. I was expecting that it would only be useful downwind, but it works surprisingly well to windward (I didn't imagine that I could keep a kayak from capsizing while going to windward). The mirage drive works well as a centerboard. I am working on figuring out how to rig the sheet so it works satisfactorily.
