What exactly is it?
This is much more than just a sail and a mast.
It is a complete sailboat conversion kit.
Some other companies will offer a sail and mast, and maybe spars or a boom, and call that a "sail kit."   You cannot convert your inflatable boat for sailing with just a sail and mast.   You need additional parts to hold the mast up, and you need leeboards so you can sail across the wind and tack upwind, and you need convenient steering for control.   And you need a way to attach everything to your boat and instructions tailored to your boat.   Our sail rig is complete and includes all parts necessary for all these functions.   You only need to supply the boat and follow the instructions we provide.
We are SailboatsToGo, LLC.
We introduced  sail kit for various inflatable boats, including this kind, about 10 years ago and have hundreds of happy customers all over the world using them.   We are a small, personal and friendly company. You are welcome to call founder and co-owner Jim Luckett with any questions before or after purchase.  His phone is 978 263 7598.   In addition we offer other sail kits for the Mariner 4, Mariner 3, other Seahawk models, Navigator boats, canoes, kayaks, Cheyenne boats, Sevylor boats, Porta-Botes, Wavewalk Kayaks, Paddleski Kayaks, NuCanoes, and row boats.  We are the leader in sail kits for small boats.
The sail kit is well engineered and ruggedly made.
You can enjoy it in moderate winds as a beginner or in strong winds up to 20 mph or even more if you have the skills and accept the risks of sailing in high winds.  This sail kit is made to take it.
Comfort:
The sail kit allows plenty of headroom under the sail and it does not take away a significant amount of floor space in the boat.
Sailing is easy and fun
.  You can figure out the basics in just a few hours with the included sailing manual and be a sailor your first day on the water.
