WindPaddle Cruiser Sail The most powerful sail in our lineup, the "Cruiser" is intended for larger, heavier boats that need and can handle more power from the wind. At a bit over 1.5 m the WindPaddle "Cruiser" has the power to pull along heavier boats loaded with gear or people. The "Cruiser" sail also works for heavy SOTs and fishing kayaks. You can always tilt the sail forward and "spill" the wind to depower the sail. This sail retains its shape in high winds and doesn't turn a kayak or canoe into a complex, heavy sailing craft.
