n The objective of this project is to design and test a manned 36ft. parasail that will be anchored to the beach and be capable of lifting a person to an maximum altitude of 50 feet.
n Full scale testing will be conducted in order to determine the feasibility of the design system.
n Safety measures will be implemented after analysis of the test data.
n The complete design package will include all of the information and modifications based on the testing and new safety features.
n
An operations manual will also be submitted with the final design package, and will contain procedures and conditions for safe operation of the design system.
