Great idea to have a forum just for harryproa. I am eager to get started on a small harryproa but would like more information about performance in varied...
... along. ... I don't think there is one sailing yet. Rob's is an earlier prototype, and it's off chasing line honours with the new WW hull. The proasail...
Hi Rob, Group, Just a message to announce that I subscribed to this group. Interested as I am in Pacific Proa's I follow what Rob is doing for a long time...
G'day This is a general intro I am planning to build a Harry after I complete a 5m outrigger canoe and a PhD, probably in that order. I'll probably go fo a...
G'day, Heavy weather performance details are scarce as I have yet to go out in extreme weather as there was always some part of the boat which was an ...
Hi All I'm thrilled to see this group set up so I can chat with others interested in the Harry family (and I can stop pestering Rob). I've been planning to...
Hi all As another keen onlooker to the harry clan, I'd like to hear an update on the potential new folding beam system that Rob mentioned in one of his...
... (http://homepages.paradise.net.nz/garyd/t2.html). ... proa. This is probably not strictly to do with a Harry website butit is to do with practising the...
I'm interested also. As good as the Farier is a pretty tall order. One of the cool things about an HG is that is gives one a longer sled for the amount of...
Hi Robert That is exactly what I have in mind. Harry (I presume there is a redesigned version in the works) or Harrigami will be a retirement project (about 5...
... redesigned version in the works) or Harrigami will be a retirement project (about 5 years away) but in the meantime I also want to settle in my mind that...
Hi Robert I did intend to answer directly rather than to the group, but if nobody else minds, I don't see anything wrong with a marginally relevant topic....
G'day, The situation with the folding beams is that Jim Shanahan, the guy who had the original idea, was going to build a rough and ready Elementarry to test ...
Sad to hear that Jim is unwell. I had been imagining him for some time beavering away on a glass elementary, and then a strip version... I am more interested...
Hi Jim, Robert and All, A Harryproa focus is prefered, however we welcome all general proa discussion in the group. Kind regards, Michele @ Harryproa ... ...
Hi Jim, Harry is actually the 'not so trailerable' version of Harrigami. Harrigami was originally meant to be the folding, trailerable version of Harry with a...
... At the small end of the spectrum it's the trailing *height* restriction that matters. It's easy enough to trail the boat on its side, or at some angle in ...
Jim, Don't think you can mix and match hulls and rigs. The Gibbons and the EasyRig are different solutions to their respective hull forms. HarryProa is unique...
Bob, It is good to know that there are still places beyond the sign that reads "Beyond Here There Be Dragons". The Old Philosopher once said that a boat is...
Your right, but there will have to be some really definitive sailing advantages proven to indicate that this is the necessary boat to fit into a slip. On the...
Gidday I think you miss the point with the folding version My opinion of the main purpose of the system is to make it trailable. If getting into docks is the...

Hi Rob and others, My name is Brad and I have been keeping a watching brief on the developments of the Harry Proas. The website is awesome and one of my...
hello everybody, Just to introduce myself : I like very much the harry proas and find they mix in a clever way a lot of small and big innovations. I think they...
Hello there, I'm the bloke who came up with the idea of the folding beams and given my current state of health I have sometimes wished I hadn't since I haven't...

Hi Nicholas, Yes I have a drawing of the system. But if I put it on the web I think Rob would fly 3000 to Tasmania and biff me behind the ear! And I bruise...
That wouldn't be me, I'm just responding to the view that there are non trailering advantages to folding, which is correct. It would be a great think to have...
Is anyone building a Harry, as opposed to the larger proas. It would also be interesting to hear about sailing on one of these boats from anyone who hasn't...
