I have just been reading about the Parasail. That sounds good, anyone used one? My first thought was, I bet that's expensive, but was pleasantly surprised when the article gave a price indication. It wasn't bad at all in my view. The thing I thought real cool though, was being able to use it in winds up to 30kts. Mate!! that must put some loads on the boat. But it takes away the fear of being caught with the kite up. That is one of several reasons why I decided Dawn and I would never be able to handle a spinniker and decided we didn't need one. But now, I am thinking, hmmmmm.
