Rare Bird sighting.   Message List

Carole was out sailing near the Gold Coast (South of Brisbane Qld
Australia) and saw a large harry proa sailing nicely in 25 knots of
breeze. Her brother who was skippering the boat she was on was a bit
worried about the mast. It will take a bit of convincing as he has to
find something to quibble about in a boat that that goes so many times
faster than his own with so much less fuss. Carole reckons it looked
absolutely beautiful so there is hope yet in being able to build one.
