G'day,

Thought you may be interested in the recent launching of Elementarry, a 7.5m/25' proa with 4m/13' windward hull.

Schooner rigged, unstayed carbon masts, telescoping beams (2.4-4m/8-14'), 22 sqm//235 sq' sail, and weighing 120 kgs/266 lbs, although the next one will be considerably less.

A few issues to be resolved, mainly with the sails and me getting fit enough to move around quickly, but so far it goes pretty well.

For pics and the story so far, see http://www.harryproa.com/Elementarry/SailingPhotos_4.htm and the previous 3 reports.

Regards,


Rob
