Hi Tom,
A couple of us sail sloops with kites in SA.
After years sailing A's I came back to the mossie partly because of the kite and on a Mk2 it is a world of fun particilar off the wind, it becomes a totally different boat.
Still not brave enought to sail off the wind with 2 on the wire but my youngest son does ... interestly fast.
