great video! thanks for leaving the entire shunt in! in most videos that's edited out so great to see an uncut example! It's a bit scary to me that there are no other stays and not even a halyard or brailing lines, that's because this is the racing style, right? would hate to drop the sail in the water during the shunt but it could make for some exciting changes of place when racing!
The shunt is actually not a particular good one because the tip of the sail didn't really fit to the canoe and we had to improvise, resulting in a lot of tying. Same for the steering paddle, I set it up in a wrong way so we had to deal with it on the water. I kept at least one shunt in to show the great boat handling needed to sail these canoes. Performing the maneuver without the stays requires a lot of practice, especially with a large and heavy sail in strong wind. If anything goes wrong and the shunt is not in perfect harmony with the motion of the canoe the sail drops. It feels almost like a dance if performed more fluent and beautifully than shown in the video. When the good guys go racing they hardly drop the sail, so its not really a thing :D
On sailboats in Bali the setup is really simple as with other traditionally rigged crab claw sails. Some don't even have anything tied to the sail at the bow, just a basic forked stick type arrangement so shunting happens really fast, basically the amount of time it takes to walk from one end to the other and back again with the rudder paddle. And those balinese boats are crazy fast. Google Balinese jukung race.
@@pakde8002Dzień dobry, bardzo dziękuję za bardzo dokładne informacje. Czy wiesz gdzie można kupić plany takiej żaglówki z Bali? Pozdrowienia z Polski.
To jest wspaniałe co pokazałeś. Piękne zdjęcia i widoki przyrody morskiej. Doskonałe, piękne i szybkie łodzie proa. Czy można kupić twój projekt łodzi? Pozdrowienia z Polski.
Wish a traditionally built Marshallese canoe still existed.. they were expertly designed and so well developed for open ocean voyages.

@@pakde8002would love to race both designs against each other!

Thanks! This is a traditional Marshallese canoe. By custom, the knowledge how to build and sail these can not be sold or given without permission.
Donde puedo conseguir un plano de esta embarcacion ? Gracias !
There are no plans, these canoes are built in the traditional way by specialized people only.
