The Red Monster ("I" 18.71 metres, "J" 6.28 metres) was carefully designed to keep 11 fit people very busy. She came without a windlass or an autopilot but with two massive spinnaker poles, a jockey pole, twin halyards, lifts, etc and three spinnakers. Since she no longer has the eleven fit people, and has to get along with one or two geriatrics, the kites are on loan to a sister ship which does race, and I am quietly thinking of what to put in their place.
I am much obliged to Geem for saving me the ghastly price of a Parasail...
I reckon poled out headsail is all you need. Acres of light stuff would never come out of the bag.....
