Looks fast as hell for downwind sailing. Much more going on here underway than an AI.

My AI is enough to get the adrenalin rush in higher winds. This one is at a higher level of sailing and would tax the fisherman that I am who happens to sail.

What I'm trying to say is this boat looks like you could get your butt in a bind if you don't know what you're doing out there!

With all that being said, I would love to get behind the ropes and see what this thing could do in (lighter) wind.

Sorry for the late notice.  I'm meeting them for a demo at 2PM tomorrow, Saturday Feb 22, at the East end of the Loch Lomand Marina.  Room for 1-2 more.  Let me know if you're interested in attending.

My buddy who owns an both a single and tandem AI has demo'd it.  He said its fast but it has a lot more parts and tedious to assemble.

  Let us know if a demo opportunity comes around again.    This is a sailors kayak.    If they made this roto-molded,,,, I bet it could get the price down some.
Sometimes the fish isn't the only prize.
