Went out to do some fishing and decided to bring the sail kit with me......good thing I did as the weatherman was right on the money for a change. Forecast was calling for calm winds early morning and windy by mid afternoon.
Wind was blowing around 10 MPH with Gusts up to 15 MPH. Hobie Pro Angler handled the wind and gusts quite well. Never felt like it was going to flip but I did have to lower the seat for best comfort.
So often have I found myself pedaling back for miles after a long day on the water. Always wishing I had an electric motor or a sail that would help me get back to shore....

Here is the PA 14 in action....

Enjoy the Video.

I am in the north area of the Mosquito Lagoon and luckily the water has been staying clean and clear for the most part. It feels like being in the islands at times... This time of the year is ideal for bringing a sail along. Seems like the wind is always blowing in your favor.

Good luck with your PA. I am sure you will enjoy it.
