These sails were developed and tested specifically for the CLC SailRig MK2. this comes in 40-, 55-, or 70- square feet sizes with full-length upper batten (included), sleeved luff, and no reef points. We went through a dozen designs before settling on this shape, which combines efficiency and upwind power with a low center of effort. It may be used with or without a boom. SailRig 40: A 40sqft sail is more than enough for fast sailing in solo kayaks and canoes. SailRig 55: The 55sqft sail is a good fit for most double kayaks or for pushing single kayaks a little harder. SailRig 70: Unlike the 40 and 55, the 70sqft. sail requires strategic reinforcement of the host kayak to handle the loads and a specially equipped mast (including sail track). This option should be reserved for sailors with some skill and for kayaks with enough bow volume to handle the higher speeds without "submarining." The SailRig sails are generally not in stock. They typically take about three weeks to be built by our sailmaker; call or email us to check availability or for more details. Most orders will be shipped directly from the sailmaker to the customer. Read this article for the entire 17-year evolution of the CLC SailRig.
