Questions & Answers

Nancy S : Would this work on a sea eagle inflatable kayak?Neil N : As long as there are forward D rings on either side of “hull”, I would expect sail to work on other inflatables.Mario C : Sorry we do not have cross branding compatibility information on that. I imagine that with enough creativity and zip ties it could be done but not certain.
Shopper : Will this work on a Feel Free Nomad Kayak? It’s 9 feet.Chris Z : Yeah if it is like my Attack kayak. It's alright but I found out that I would prefer to just paddle. You need a centerboard like a sailboat to go more in a straight line. It just seemed to me a little too much work holding the sail lines and paddling to stay straighter. That is just me though. I will say that it is quality made. Hoped I helped you.
Shopper : Will this work on a canoe?Anna H : It might work, but you might have to use some ingenuity in attaching to the canoe.Carl C : It should work, but you'll have to figure out how to attach the bottom front edge...Dan S : Yes, I think so. It works well on my closed top kayak, which would be a similar shape. The sail requires anchor points at front and sides, so your canoe will need places to clip to - look at the anchor connections for more detail.
Shopper : Will this fit on a pokeboat?YAN G : These are designed specifically for the Advanced Elements Kayaks. Could possibly work with other brands/models, but we do not have a way to verify this.
Shopper : Why Did You Choose This?JOSUE D : I chose this sail to assist in downwind conditions while paddling a tandem kayak with my wife. I'll write a review when we put it to work.RAYMOND N : Like it cheaper than buildEric K : Best design for me at this timeAnna H : I love my Advanced Elements Kayak and when I decided to try a sail for her I went to them again for the quality of the product and of the superior customer service. I want to encourage this company to stay in business for a long, long time.

Sail? or Windshield? you make the call...

looks good but hard to paddle; needs to move more up the bow; also needs wind greater than the 15 mph i was in to have any fun; still waiting to see. must add additional carbiners because the clips are difficult to unlatch when removing

No wind, no work

The sail was so easy to set up but I haven’t really experienced the full , hopefully, enjoyment. Every time I’ve taken my kayak out with it there was no wind so I will have to get back to a better review when I truly find out how well it works. I can say that it seems sturdy enough to catch the wind if there was any... so I can’t say whether or not I recommend it.

not impressed

I like the quality but the sail just isn't big enough to catch enough air, unless its really windy. I was really excited to try it. The quality of the product was really great. I'm returning the sail.

Eye-catching, fun booster!

By Neil

Adds a fun dimension to our kayak adventures.

Have you ever had a strong wind to your back and wished you had a sail to help you along the way? The Rapid-Up Sail is a compact, portable, and easy to set up down-wind sail that rapidly deploys and quickly stows flat on the deck of your kayak. The unique shape of this sail is specially designed to conform to kayak decks and uses a built in non-corroding spring" frame that gives the Rapid-Up the ability to spring" open. Made of high quality, durable rip-stop sail cloth; this sail has adjustable attachments, quick connecting lanyards, d-rings, and a carabiner for easy attachment to multiple deck configurations. So the next time you are out paddling with a good tail wind, just remember, with a quick flip of the Rapid-Up Sail, you will have that extra push to get you to your next destination.

Sail has a large central window and two side windows for clear visibility and sailing. The sail can also be used as a hand-held sail for fast operation when needed. Sail folds into a disk shape for easy storage. The Advanced Element Rapid-Up Kayak Sail will work with most all kayaks and is specifically designed for all Advance Element Kayaks. Sail comes with a storage bag, 2 quick connect stabilizer lanyards, 1 quick connect dousing lanyards, 1 steel carabiner base clip and owner's manual.
