Sea Island Sport

Hey guys, new to the clc forum, regular at woodenboat.forum

Want to build a Sea Island Sport (sis), one for me and one for the wife.  Having a sailing background, I would like to add the CLC Sail Rig when I feel like a short sail rather than a paddle.  John H said it would be quite fun and doable, but will need to  add rudder. 

 

Have any of you done this before?

RE: Sea Island Sport

Ive almost finished building a SIS. i added a well for hobie pedals and a hand controlled rudder.

My rudder is quite similar to this one. http://www.kayakfishingnz.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=12&t=158&start=20 you can also buy rudders on here.

also the sail rig comes with plans for a simple rudder that you put on when using the rig. It is also about twice the size than the one in the link. Probably needed when using a large sail.

Hope that helps

Thanks Josh, looks impressive. I might go with a standard plastics rudder set from one of the kayak shops around here
