Mr. Nice guy,
I can't help with your stowage question because I have a PA, but I imagine having it mounted in the sail insert, upright, is your only option unless you want to cram it into your bow hatch. You'll have to rig it up on the water if you do that. The mast breaks down into four pieces. I wouldn't want it mounted while fishing if a good size fish runs across the bow.
As far as the sailing goes, I really liked it and it was easy to do. The other day was the first time I tried it with my PA and I sailed it up and down the shore a hundred yards or so back and forth across the wind. I didn't try to sail with the wind because that is a no brainer.
I think I am going to keep it. I am going to upgrade to the tandem PA17 rudder for more than just sailing purposes (if is is possible). The wind was barely blowing and I was doing 3.4 kts.
