Guys,

More and more I'm convinced of the following.

I we want to get kids hooked on sailing then landyachting is the ticket. Cheap, simple, very exiting and very easy in the space requirement. Again, an empty parking lot at a mall will do the trick. These sailcrafts are alot cheaper as well.

More and more I'm in awe of the succes the blokarts are achieving. They have sold thousants of these craft over the last 7 years or so.

Right now on my favourite landyachting beach in NL you can see tens of such craft. Actually many adventure companies use these for team building days and other group arrangements. These craft are that easy to master that a total novice can sass it out in 10 minutes.

Remember, this is landyachting ! A sport more "elite and rare" then any of the other of the windsports.

Maybe get them hooked on sailing first and then switch them over to waterborn craft for the summer months ?
