Fitting a junk rig to a Klepper kayak

I have a pair of Hobie kayaks that I have enjoyed. I even have a sail for one of them. Nothing as fancy as this rig, but kayaks are great and adding a sail to one is just like icing on a cake.

"A junk rig has many good qualities that make it peculiarly well suited to driving the rather unstable kayak hull. It is a gentle sail: it does not flap wildly when let go and it can be dropped in a second. It requires no headsail, so the entire rig can be serviced from a sitting position. In the design described here the mast also can be erected and taken down from a sitting position."
