A pair of pontoons are connected together in spaced arrangement by a bridge. A hammock, for supporting the user of the sailing arrangement, is disposed between and above the pontoons. A framed sail is attached to the pontoons such that the attitude and direction of the sail can be manipulated by the user. For this purpose, handles are provided on the underside of the sail and the user grasps the handles to manipulate the sail.
