hoist the sail on water?
Posted: Wed Feb 22, 2017 5:56 pm
Dear all,
Can I hoist the sail of the Musto skiff on the water without being attached to something, e.g. a buoy?
I have to paddle about 50m and hoist the sail. Same procedure in revers order to go back.
Can I paddle the skiff without capsizing?
What are the limitations regarding wind speed for this procedures?
I assume there is no problem with 10 knts of wind.
However, I guess with 20 knts it might be impossible to hoist the sail on the water without capsizing.
The Musto skiff looks great but the answers to the questions above are very important for me for considering the boat.
Thanks in advance.
