My friend who went over is an expert kayaker, with no paddle sailing experience. He went over, just because he needs some kayak sailing experience. Not to mention we had gusts over 40mph. It was not a beginner day at all. But my friend is a cowboy & I was there to help, so I am happy to let him experience the thrill of being out of control.
or they need a better understanding of the wind.. Outriggers are a bit ott for expedition kayaks
See note written in response to this in the main video note.
Have a good one.
