Kit-Cats Announces a 92-meter Kite Sail for Power Boats
We test this new Kite Sail on a 42-foot Africat 420

Merritt Island, FL Aug 02, 2005 A Kit-Cat boat is a unique entry into
the boating industry, mainly because it's a catamaran boat that can be
built by the buyer. If building a boat is not a priority, Kit-Cats can
build the boat for you.

With this experience, Kit-Cats strives to get the most performance out
of every boat they build, while keeping cost down which is what
motivates the owners in developing new products. With that said, the
owners helped design a unique product called; Kite Sail. This new sail
will pull most any boat through the water at half the wind speed, or
better.

We recently tested a 92-meter Kite Sail and with only 7-knots of wind
showed a 3.9-knot hull speed, from our GPS. This speed was realized
from a boat that weighed 14-tons. On much lighter boats, we measured a
hull speed in the 9.5-knot range with a 12-knot wind. We recomend that
the Kite Sail not be used below 10-knots, but this shows how efficient
this sail can be. What makes this product so unique is that it can be
used on a power or sail boat. Please visit our web site for more
details.

There are plans on installing these Kite Sails on ocean-going cargo
ships. This new sail could save a great deal of fuel.

A Unique New Boat Builder
Kit-Cats is a new boat builder with experience derived from the
aircraft industry. Aerocomp Inc., is the parent company and they have

No thanks! I love being able to whip around at 45+ mph with my boat,
especially on windless days. ;-)
