Hey Grant,
Are you planning any demo's this year? I have it in mind that this
would be a great vehicle to carry me & the creature comforts for
winter camping. There is nothing like being in the bush in the
winter but if you are on skis/snow shoes and carrying all your gear
on your back there are some limitations on where you can go but a
kite sled could be like a very fast canoe and that could open up a
lot of territory. I have a GII 15 that I think would provide
adequate power. I downloaded the PL price list from the "Canadian
Wind Rider" site but I don't see the kite sled listed on it. I'd be
interested in knowing a price.
Thanks, Ross

There will be a Peter Lynn Flag about 100-150 yards offshore where
we'll be setting up a base for the day. The wind are forecasted to
be 40-60km/hr from the east and temperatures around the freezing
point.
