one of the poblems,well the main one realy,with using a land yacht on grass,is that there is a lot of drag . With a kite buggy all of the force generated by the kite is upwards and sideways ,so not that much drag,so the weight on the frame and wheels is reduced .
With a land yacht all of the force is sideways and down.there is little upwards force, If you are going to use a land yacht you will need to source those wide balloon tyres that I have seen buggiers use. I think Seagull do an all terrain land yacht,have a look on the site.These sized wheels probably would work ok.
If you use standard wheels ,you may get going with a large 6 or 7meter sail but because of the drag the rear would likely dig into the surface and cause a strong tipping effect(hiking) and cause you to constantly sheet out to reduce it,thereby slowing down,and on and on.
As to size of yacht,there are many plans about,its all a bit of a personal choice ,however if you do build yourself it's advisable to stay within one of the class regulations since they have little resale value to any who want to enter races.
All said however Good luck .
