i think you might need a slightly different mast from a 300, are you sure it would hold a trapeze? how about shortening a 600 mast?

ps i want a go too

nothing with a 200 sized kite can make claim to being a skiff...

It would have to be mast head!!! What about some T-Foils? And Maybe Some Racks so you could keep the full 6 rig and just extend the racks to suit the wind or sailor weight. What about a self tacker as well?

Got a broken (but easily repairable) angel 600 mast that only works with a reefed 600 sail - don't wanna risk t'other one tho .  Sounds like a great idea tho - here's that single handed miniskiff we've been after then.  I reckon we should keep it without a jib but i think the 200 kite would be too small.  T-foils though
