Skysails seems like it would just be too much for boats to manage. I can't imagine the amount of time you can run that is a large percentage of the trip.

- trillic 4y agoDon't like the potential of the kite going under the boat and getting wrapped up / destroyed in the prop.
- roflyear 4y agoMM, yes!
- aziaziazi 4y agoWhy can’t you ? Kites and sail usually can operate on the same wind angles, the only limitation I can think for kites are bridges which are not encountered in the large percentage of the trip. On top of that, higher altitudes wind Jane more power potential than the ones used by sails, ask kytesurfers !
