Is it possible to mount sidekicks on the inflatables? If so, how? |

Any thing is possible, but is it a good idea if it causes damage to the yak? |

I know of no way to attach SideKicks to the inflatable kayak models. |

Why would you need to mount Sidekicks on an inflatable ? The i12 is an extremely stable craft even when rigged with a sail. Tasman |

The i12 is an extremely stable craft even when rigged with a sail. Tasman[/quote] I'll second that, I've had my sail up in a fair breeze, I lean to windward for a touch of speed, not for stability. With two adults, we can switch driver and passenger with no stability issues, never went swimming from my i12s yet. My Laser is a whole different issue. I imagine gluing on reinforced mounting patches would be a big job, and certainly not increase the portability, fold-ability or resale of the craft. I would guess the 14 and 9 to be similar in stability. |
