Yes it uses lines, which you can see roughly in this picture
There is a line on each hull, each are secured at the bow, run through a block on the tack and back to a block on the bow and are lead back. So as the kite comes out of the chute tension can be put onto the ropes to hold the tack central. More detail of the chute and bow block system in these photographs.

Good news is that there was a lot of interest in the boat and they have sold one with plenty of interest in a few more.
