Terry Fletcher from Down Under, really likes the way the Kayaksailor works with his Ocean Kayak 4.7 Ultra.  For increased fishing and sailing stability, he added a nice set of outriggers.  It's quite a tricked out rig.  Imagine how much fun he has chasing down the schools in this cool long range fishing machine!
