Flat Earth Kayak sails
Product Description
Comes with three proven designs, which have performed well on expeditions, but it doesn’t stop there.
Flat Earth Kayak Sails are always looking for new ideas, incorporating better design features and working with kayak designers and listening to paddlers as to what to change or modify for better performance and usability.
They also offer the choice of custom building a sail for you. If there is a design you want made, or if theirs something different you want to incorporate into one of their designs don’t hesitate to contact us.
The Large sail is good for most larger Kayaks having sead this, now the new duel batten sail is a good alternative as well
The Medium sail is good for all around sailing, recommended for most paddlers and still my personal favourite
The small size is the sail that started it all. Based on the sail Norm designed, it is able to be used in most strong conditions and is a proven design with a handful of Bass Strait crossings to its name.

Rohan reviews the Aqua Pac & his iPhone. 100% waterproof!
Review: "The cases themselves survived without showing any sign of having been on the Mississippi for two months, and after a quick wipe they were good as new and ready for my next trip. My one regret is that I didn't take more Aquapac cases on my trip. When I had my one serious mishap of the trip (I hit a moored barge south of St Louis, MO and ended up upside down in the river) all the items inside Aquapac cases stayed perfectly dry and survived unscathed. I did however lose my VHF radio that was in an inferior brand case. I will use Aquapac cases exclusively on all my future river adventures."
