The weight is exactly what I am trying to avoid. It's a multihull and weight is the enemy.....

I have, in fact quite a few of the more dedicated multihull racers have them as their main boat battery. I'm not quite that desperate but when my mate bought that bit of kit at the show I thought it might be a way of killing two birds with one stone so to speak. As I said it would only be needed in an emergency and I've never been in that position yet.....but planning to be a bit more adventurous next year! Found on on Ebay for under £100 all in so think I'll get one and try it out. Cheers.
