Rael,
You have built and impressive number of boats in only a few years. I don't think I will ever be convinced to try sailing my own proa myself, but I enjoy watching yours builds and cruising videos.
When I think about the number of boats, I imagine a farm out in the countryside of Bulgaria where your fleet is stored and ready to rig. Where are all these boats now?
Hi Scott,
I give boats away... I can never sell something I don't like! So I prefer giving away and let the next guy deal with it. 'Crystal Clear' my first Proa went to a friend on the Black Sea, he will rerig her with a single Crab Claw.
Why Not? went to a restaurant on the Black Sea... Going sailing next week with my third Proa 'Make O'Break' So will go see him, maybe get a free meal... ha ha...
Now number 4 is in the oven, should sail next year and go far...
Proas are strong! But getting them to work flawlessly took me 3 builds, and the good part of a decade. My third attempt is the best micro cruiser in the world, now just making it bigger.
All d best,
Keep Shunting....
