@@noneofyourbusiness6210 alright champ
Paddling is fun but sailing is being alive. You did a wonderful conversion.😎👍
You got that right! Thanks mate 🤙

Aaron, thank you for making the "plans" available for FREE"
Great video ,great music .Thank you !
Many thanks!!
Oooh a stand up paddle that coverts to be a boom would be awesome
There you go kid!!! What are you sitting on? Could she go upwind without boom? Can you still stand and paddle?
Super job. Already one customer for my sail kit.
Awesome Bill. We might need to talk about an affiliate fee! 😁
Hey Bill, here's the new 2022 paddle board... ruclips.net/video/f29ff2zUqhU/видео.html
Amazing man. You have excellent skills. Keep going
Вот и првельно! Парус добавил кресло поставнл 😆😆✌️👍 там глядь и яхту себе саберёт.
Nice conversion project.
Practically taking development in one direction a windsurfer, or in the other an outrigger canoe, would both be more effective.
Nice work, but i assume the next step will be a small sailboat like a LASER with a far better performance..
Sails well and seems stable, good balance brah, well done!
Thanks mate! How's the new proa coming along?
@@Aaron.deRuiter slowed down, went to work... winter's coming..... next year, man.
That looks like a lot of fun. Of course if you are going downhill you bring the sail in.
Thanks Bob, I’ve thought about using a boom for downwind sailing but haven’t got around to trying it out yet.

Thanks Josh. 🤙

Amazing
Thanks
cool great job and skills but how didyou make the furling sail mast
Thanks! The sail I got from Star Kayak Sails, Bill Pain is the designer and has a great RUclips channel explaining his sails.
that is a great idea.....
congratulations for you skills.
you have inspired me to do the same adaptation on my hollow wooden sup.
greetings from Santa Catarina . Brazil,.

Thanks mate!

Absolutely fantastic. What kind of sail is the one you are installing (6:42)? Thank you-)
Fantastic work. I am currently trying to work out how to fit my kayak with a sail. Where did you get the one featured in the video?
Hi Lee, I ordered the sail from Star Kayak Sails. They’re a local Aussie company
Hey mate, you can watch the new 2022 paddle board get built here... ruclips.net/video/f29ff2zUqhU/видео.html
Does it sail close hauled?
Great & nice j job. question what material did you use for the sail, I am adapting sail to my fisherman float that I usually use fins to propel, so my plan is to have a sail like a windsurfing but smaller , I will sit and control the sail. what do you think, you see very knowledgeable thanks , Dan
Hi Dan, the sail is 3.3sqm and is from Star Kayak Sail made by a fellow Aussie, Bill Pain. 🤙
@@Aaron.deRuiter Thanks
What brand of rudder are you using? Nice job!
Thanks Dan! The rudder is a 600m long kayak rudder, basically I scoured the web for the longest rudder I could find so it would give me plenty of rudder control. I use a modified telescoping boat hook as the tiller extension to the rudder arm. Thanks for watching mate!
Great project! What sail are you using? Do you know the specific model? Thanks
Hi mate, the sail is from Star Kayak Sails. 🤙

Obrigado!🇧🇷

what is the brand/source of the sail and rudder kit(s)?
Hi Jim, the sail is from star kayak sails and the rudder was from Amazon 🤙
Sailing is way better than paddling.
Definitely! But I still enjoy plain old stand up paddling too!

@@Aaron.deRuiter Vintage, have you gotten into the use of a boat pole yet? The pole is much more powerful than any paddle for river travel, and provides much greater control in descent through rapids. There's a whole skill set dealing with the boat pole. It was the primary mode of upriver propulsion in most places with rocky riverbeds. Check out the book "Beyond the Paddle" by Garrett Conover. It deals with poling, lining and tracking canoes (using lines to maneuver canoes through difficult water up and downstream), and navigating canoes over stretches of shelving ice. The last aspect is probably not too germane to paddleboards, as winter travel requires staying dry, but the other parts will expand your ideas of what might be done with a paddle board. I'm fascinated with the idea of paddleboards for wilderness trekking using dry bags for transporting one's gear. Your boat pole could do double duty as a mast. I got into canoe poling years ago. The bottom form of a good poling canoe is just about the same as a paddleboard bottom form except that the ideal poling boat is broader toward the stern. Also, you wouldn't want the little stern fin on a river boat, but your kick-up ridder makes that redundant anyway.
Hello good Job. Nice. You think such a sail is possible for Inflatables? Hop to hear from you.
Thanks Marcel. It would be difficult to install a sail like this in an inflatable paddle board as the mast a 200mm long hole to place it in the board. You’re better off making a new board if you want to use a similar sail.
@@Aaron.deRuiter what about the inflatables with windsurf Option, there it works with a mast! What sizes did your sail have?
@@marceljansen2153 a windsurfer style sail is definitely an opinion but I think you need to stand up and hold the wishbone boom. My sail is roller furled so it can be rolled up on the water as the wind increases or put away completely.
@@marceljansen2153 the sail is 3.4 square metres.
Ok. Do you have a picture from your roll up sail lying on the Flor so that i can see the shape of it. What material is the Mast?
what was the glue stripper?
Just regular paint stripper
Hey Ben, here's the new 2022 paddle board build... ruclips.net/video/f29ff2zUqhU/видео.html
It would fill up with water through the daggerboard slot.
It doesn’t
The daggerboard slot is sealed all the way through. Duh.
You selling that?
Why? Do you want to buy it? 😁
@@Aaron.deRuiter ….how much ?
We have plans and kits now Wolf! Here's the new 2022 paddle board build... ruclips.net/video/f29ff2zUqhU/видео.html
Мачта и парус это получше весла 😆😆
