  • my old proa, renamed "Good Enough" is now ready to launch, but I have a new year's party to go, why not both? luckily the party is near the water and some friends (new and old) helped me.
    Music: Peaceful Planet by Golden Axe,

    Thanks to everyone who helped: Joel, Siana, Cliff, Luke, Chris, Natalie and Lewis. Especially Joel for gaffing, Chris for drone camera, Cliff for camera, Lewis for herding cats and everyone else for lifting something!

    That looks amazing! Love your mast/spar shunting geometry that you managed to work out! Could you maybe provide a closeup of your mast foot? It looks to be a low tech arrangement... I love it.

      I'll get that in the next video. It's currently just a hole drilled through the bamboo, just below a node, rope goes through that and a knot, then lashed to beam on the other side. I didn't have time to carve a socket

      @@dominictarrsailing that sounds very easy. I might just draw inspiration from you in my own project.

    1st sail turned out a dud because of lack of wind 2nd sail a success. Brilliant but I would advise to take a PFD just in case of a capsize. Good that you got the project completed.

    this looks very fun and definitely when it is my turn to build a boat I will start with a Proa

      good plan! for the wood you got, you get maximum length, which means both speed and seaworthyness, ability to handle waves. enough room to carry camping gear. you can paddle if necessary. and it's not too hard to move on land either.

      @@dominictarrsailingCool. It's symetrical right? The P5 is a free plan made by Othmar Karschulin, but is asymmetrical. You can see it at www.duckworksmagazine.com/02/articles/p5/index.htm

    No offense mate but it's 100x more fun following your boat work than your tech work. Keep up the vlogs, please!
