I think Reto could consider a stiffer mast, and boom, to match the more powerful rig! BTW its great to see that he is still sailing and developing Lili after all these years. Well done you Baltic Proa guys for meeting up each year and thanks @Fjordproa for a whole series of great videos!
Hello, thank you. Reto is already working on the stiffer mast and boom. It was very helpful to get the individual people together. You get to know each other better and can exchange experiences. Henrik von www.Proas.is wants to organize a meeting next year.
Hello my Proa is 6 meter long. Reto's is a P5 of 5 meter, sails really verry well and can even be transported on the car roof. Free plans at www.karschulin.de
@@fjordproa6510 Thank you but I clicked on the link and can't read it. The link also didn't have a link that I could click on. I'm in the USA. A P5 sounds like it would be the right size for me. I weigh 230 pounds.
@@robertlaird6746 You could try the email link at the bottom of Othmar's Projekte page. I got a Delftship file from him of P5 quite a few years ago and I have some JPGs of the drawings. He's a friendly guy. Another essential reference is Garry Dierking's book 'Building outrigger sailing canoes'. It is a goldmine of information for small proa dreamers, builders and sailors. It contains plans for 3 canoes, one of which is a dedicated shunter, another can be built as a shunter plus a good choice of shunting rigs, all worked out from his experience. Get to it!

Bravo Reto!
I'd like to build something like this. How long is your boat and what would you say is the shortest Proa that you can make that still sails well?
