Parafoils

Does anyone have any experience using a parafoil sail when kayaking? What are your experiences etc.?I finished my Pygmy triple last summer and really enjoy it. We generally use it as a double or single. I want to run the attachment line from the front of the forward cockpit, but need some sort of reel arrangement in order to reel the parafoil back in. The line being used is 200lb test.
