- A walkaround video on my 16ft Gary Dierking designed Wa'apa double outrigger sailing canoe. I shot this video on Hungry Beach, NSW after a test sail with the new lugsail from Really Simple Sails. If you want more information about the boat comment below.

Great looking boat, very well built and organized ,love the anchor spot
Thanks Philip, when the boat is small everything needs to be secure yet accessible. Have you seen my video of the boat in action?
If I lived on the ocean or bay, I'd consider building something like this. Very nice, a lot like I pictured in my dreams. I might have favored a catamaran for the ability to high-ski, but maybe it has its own drawbacks.
Marco from Italy, you boat very fantastic 🏆
Thanks for sharing.... I am jealous
Good vid bro, nice boat! keep on sharing your ideas, cos day r bloody cool......
Thanks Rael, have you had a chance to get some more work done on makr or break? It would be interesting to see how the new rig works under sail.
@@Aaron.deRuiter No time for boat building, working 24/7 on making a living..... hope it rains soon, once it does will stop roofing and get back to rigging........ Once I test my new rig, hopefully soon, I will upload a vid on d tube.....
Aaron this is awesome! I built a Tamanu a few years back with a single ama & a wishbone rig. Your solution looks to be much more sensible, especially when riding with the kids. And I love seeing the worlds of Dierking & Storer coming together :-)
Thanks Andrew. Michael Storer's RSS lugsail was a really simple and effective solution for the wa'apa rig, I think Gary Dierking has even tried something similar himself with his Tamanu in Fiji.
Lovely work. Interesting to see what I guess is a Goat lugsail on an Ulua.
Thanks! This is actually a 16ft Wa’apa from the same designer as the Ulua. The sail is an 89sqft lug sail used on the Oz Goose.
Great looking boat! Looks fast just sitting there. That's a lot of work culminating in a beautiful vessel. I'm picking up a Kayak today and hope to convert it to a sailyak. Keep the videos comming:)
Thanks Brett! I think she's pretty, I'm going sailing this weekend so there'll be another video soon. Good luck with the sailyak conversion!
This is what we call it piece of art. This like monalisa
Thanks mate, she's a pretty little boat!
Good vid mate . Have a Tamanu myself .
Nice mate, where do you sail?
@@Aaron.deRuiter Mandurah WA mate
Nice rig!
I tried a 54 ft version of your balanced lug on my kayak with much smaller outriggers. With both reefs in, she turtles in a 15 knot gust. Water was about 10 degrees. Chilly day.
I saw where you didn't have any lines in your second reef. Might want to do that before you need it!
Thanks mate, your kayak sounds like it would be a lot of fun! Unfortunately, I didn't get the chance to sail my outrigger in anything stronger than 8knots before I sold it, it does make we wonder how the current owner is going with it.
@@Aaron.deRuiter Bummer. So many pork chops, so little outrigger.
The kayak is just a folding Klepper suitable for air travel.
I built a 19 ft trimaran a bit before yours(with a bit more buoyancy on the outriggers than yours) that carries about 170ish ft of Bermudan rig. No turtling in 20 knots of wind and she's hit a bit over 19 knots while remaining stable enough to make a sandwich.
Did you add keel batten under the canoe
Hi Aaron! Great boat, that's a pity you have so few videos with it! I'm building right now an other trimaran (M. Storer's QCE with his outriggers), but my next build would be the Wa'apa. How reliable is your rudder fitting? Have you experienced any failure? I like it's simplicity and low cost :)
Thanks mate, I wish I had more time to to have taken it sailing! It really needed to go on a trailer to speed up the rigging process. But it was a great little boat and sailed well considering the simple hull shape and lug rig. The rudder was a combination of Gary Dierking's and Michael Storer's rudder designs. It worked fine but I would prefer to have the rudder hung off the stern but that would make it more complex to raise and lower it. If I were you, I'd build the Tamanu to give you more room and waterline length or build the 24ft version of the wa'apa. Thanks for watching István!
Hey where can I get the plans I am just wanting to build amas for an existing single hull boat make it more stable
Hey Brad, the plans for the outrigger are in Gary Dierking's Building Outrigger Canoes book which you can buy from his website.
Hey Aaron, how long did this build take? and what's your top speed? are you finding the 16 easy to transport on the car? cheers mate.
Also is there a reason you went for the double? more seaworthy?
Hey mate, sorry for the late reply. I've since sold the outrigger canoe so not sure how it's holding up. But I expect it will last for a long while if looked after properly! Yes, went with the double outrigger for better stability and sailing performance.
Aaron Greetings from Costa Rica, in Gary Dierking's book there is no configuration for trimaran of 16 feet only for 24 feet, could you tell me what measure you gave to your iakos?
I want to transform my wa'apa 16 into a trimaran
Hi Huascar, thanks for watching mate. I used the same width as per Gary's plans for the 24 footer on my 16ft version.
Thanks for the quick reply. I will use the same measure
Fantastic boat Aaron. I hear you say in the video that she’s built from 3mm plywood. The plans call for 6mm or 4mm for the side hull pieces to save weight. Is that correct or are just some parts of the boat built in 3mm ply?
Thanks Leigh. Yes, she’s built from 3mm plywood with a layer of 6oz fibreglass glass on both sides to essentially make the plywood a lightweight core between FG laminates. The hull sides, bottom and fore and aft decks are 3mm plywood.
@@Aaron.deRuiter good to know you can get away with 3mm. I’m looking for something that’s easy to car top. Thanks for the reply.
No worries Leigh. What boat are you thinking of building?
@@Aaron.deRuiter The Wa’apa but in 3 sections. I like the idea of having a 16 foot or a 24 foot option. I’m intrigued by the shunting rig also so might make it a single outrigger.
Answer please.
