[PCW] Kite Sail for a power cat

[Captain Randy Boelsems]

Hello all,

My wife and I gave up the sailing cat world for power when our kids were 
born. Now that they are a bit older (and because of the ever increasing cost 
of fuel) I am thinking of going back to the blow boat side, part time, 
because I am not ready to give up the power cat that we love.

I have been trying for several months to find out about kite sails for our 
power cat. I have tried to contact Kite Sail and Outleader 
(http://www.kiteship.com/outleader.php) but they do not respond to phone 
calls or emails. Does anyone have recomendations for a company that produces 
kite sails for power boats?

We have a down wind run home from Catalina on a regular basis and a kite 
sail should suit us if we can figure out how to launch and recover the kite 
with out a mast.
