VII. Operation 

1.  To operate the Supersport™ it is only necessary to have 1 person 

on board. It is possible to have up to 2 people as long as the maximum 

weight capacity, 181 kg (400 lbs.), is observed.

2. Know your limits. When piloting your own craft, you are solely respon-

sible for your safety. Inexperienced users should be extremely cautious 

about the risks as well as the location and conditions they choose to 

operate in. Calm waterways without waves, tides or currents are the 

best place to start. Gentle, steady winds and stable weather will help to 

ensure an enjoyable experience.

3. When sailing the Supersport™, a sitting position offers the best con-

trol and stability. 

DO NOT

 stand up while sailing.

4. As with all sailboats, there is a possibility of capsize. To prevent this, 

all users should position themselves toward the centerline of the hull 

on the windward side of the boat. The windward side is closest to the 

direction the wind is coming from. As the boat changes directions, all 

users will need to reposition themselves in order to maintain this position 

relative to the wind. 

5. When sailing, it is generally not necessary to adjust, or ‘trim’, the main 

sheet strap when underway. This allows users to focus on steering. 

Tension the main sheet strap as needed, tightening for better upwind 

sailing, loosening to improve speed and downwind sailing angles.  

6. If the Supersport™ should capsize, instruct all users to climb aboard 

the inverted hull as it provides floatation, even upside down. It is 

possible to self-right the craft by standing at one side of the hull while 

quickly squatting and pulling on the sailing bridle from the opposite side. 

The goal is to partially sink one side of the hull while pulling the opposite 

side up and over. Once the boat is righted, climb aboard and resume 

sailing.

7. When sailing or windsurfing, the general principles of sailing apply. 

Refer to the diagram below. Sailing upwind (in the direction the wind is 

coming from) must be done using a series of ‘tacks’, gradually working 

the boat in an upwind direction. It is not possible to sail directly into the 

wind. The boat should be in this orientation only momentarily, during 

a direction change or tack. Prepare for a tack by warning other users 

of the imminent turn. Approach with some speed and steer the boat 

purposefully into the wind, continuing the turn until the wind catches the 

sail on the new side and the boat gathers speed again. During the tack,  

users change positions so as to remain on the windward side of the 

boat. When sailing downwind always remain mindful of the wind direc-

tion, as a downwind turn, or ‘jibe’, will cause the sail to rotate rapidly. 

An unintentional jibe can catch users on the downwind side of the 

boat, increasing the possibility of capsize, especially in stronger wind 

conditions.
