Agreed! It looks pretty cool (again, no pun intended!) but the OP's picture has the boat on glass smooth water with lots of trees in the background to block any winds. That almost never happens in my part of the world! It might be pretty calm when I put in the water but it's also safe bet that it won't be by the time I get back to the dock. That looks like it has the potential to be an annoyingly efficient sail!
It's looks calm because it was a calm day, and that "glass smooth water with lots of trees around" is because it's in a lake cove where my dock is, not the open part of the lake. I'm still experimenting with what works best for me, and when I'm done, I'll update this post and maybe add a new pic or two of my findings.
