Folds to compact bundle about the size of a set of golf clubs so you can easily put it in the trunk of a small car and store it in a closet or under a bed when not in use. Our shipping box that is 10 inches x 10 inches x 4 feet and the complete folded rig fits in there easily. 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. Please view this video that shows the similar rig sailing on a Seahawk II and also demonstrates assembly and portability. (The Seahawk II is almost identical to the Hydro-Force Marine Pro.)
