Sails and kayaks?

Advice
#1

Just curious if a sail really works on a kayak. Does Hobie’s Outback design sail any better than a sail mounted on another kayak? Anybody tried it?

#2

Not sure if your question
is about sailing kayaks or the Hobie Outback. Sailing kayaks work very well.

sailing kayaks is a blast…
It opens up all those days when its windy, choppy, and everyone else is sitting at home. I look forward to those days, also you can always put it away and revert back to paddling as always!

They are a blast for downwind sailing.
