[quote=redtwin]I don't know too much about the mechanics of going solo with a spin boat but I know tons of people do it. I mostly crew on 2-man spin boats. I know that the main is the back stay and you definitely don't want to blow it to depower. In a big gust that would likely bring down your mast. You adjust the main with the traveler so that the sheet stays tight. You depower by pointing lower. The best rides are when you can get the hull just out of the water and point higher to power up and point lower to depower. One hull being pulled by a huge kite is an incredible experience with 2 people on board. I bet it is pretty close to nirvana single-handed.[/quote]
