8 foot cargo parachute used as a sea anchor on a powerboat. I used it on a 21 foot powerboat and it stopped it cold on those hard to fish windy days. Will post pic later.
Best offer.
If you don't know where you're headed, any road could get you there.

Could deploying this be considered a sail? The sail is underwater not above so I am not sure if the rules stay that the sail must be wind blown?  I am looking for ways to get on the SAOTY anyway I can!  :smt005
