I thought others here might be interested in this kickstarter for a tarp that uses your paddles as poles and your qajaqs as anchors. https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/tupikkayakerfly/tupik-kayaker-fly-an-instant-paddlers-shelter/. Developed by Gearlab.

seems like a very poor way to treat a paddle {YMMV}

I’m not sure using kayaks as tent stakes is a great idea.

I can see a fair amount of wind dragging the kayaks across the ground to some degree

Ive set up a tarp this way, it works... logs buried in the sand are more secure. And I dont see the need for a specially designed tarp, any tarp can be set up that way.
