Abstract: An out-rigger assembly for releasable attachment to a conventional sail-board is provided to make it easier for users to keep their balance while learning to master the art of sail-boarding, also known as wind-surfing. The assembly comprises an essentially planar central deck or platform which is releasbly secured to the top surface of a sail-board usefully by straps which pass around the sail-board. Elongated members extend transversely outwardly from the central dark and at their ends are releasably connected to pontoons or out-riggers.
