G'day, Mark and Michele have left harryproa. A more or less amicable split, neither of us liked the way the others were doing things, so decided it was ...
Sorry to hear of the dissolution. That's never comfortable, Rob and I wish you the best in your pursuits in the future. Do you have a referral email for Mark? ...
I wish good luck to all... and I must admit some frustration for the lack of information on new progress. I still don't have either time and money to build my...
It is sad to hear but can understand. I thought the tension and cooperation were a good and productive coordination, but not always easy. It must be a little...
Rob, My real name is Tom Henry, we've exchanged messages over the years (my questions and your helpful/generous answers), and I will build a Proa yet. I have...
Hi All, As Rob has announced Michele and I will no longer be involved with Harryproa. Rob has resigned from the company and we will be changing it's name to...
Hi Robert, Yes, Rob, Michele and I were a good team for a long time but after five years I feel I need to move on. Designing catamarans is really quite easy as...
G'day, ... There is about as much material in these strips as in the glass which goes around the hull to support the harryproa mast. Other comparisons are: ...
Hello Rob, I've seen mention of several larger Harrproas, both on the harryproa.com website and in your recent postings. Of particular interest are the...
G'day, The Norwegian boat has been optimised for high speed cruising and looks pretty glamorous. They are sending some renderings of the boat. The charter...
-Much of this is about the difference between freestanding and stayed rather than between proa and cat. The compression loads on the main beam certainly addsto...

Mike, What do you mean fine contender for 13m cat? Doug Rob Denney <harryproa@...> wrote: G'day, The Norwegian boat has been optimised for high speed...
... On a weight or dollar basis I assume. Harking back to the idea you can build a longer Proa than a cat or tri for the resources involved. Some of the...
Hi All, It has been put to me that my last two posts have been anti Harryproa and that I have damaged my credibility by a sudden change of view. This is...

For what it's worth, from my perspective, all three of you have been reasonable up to this point, and I see no reason for additional discussion in this forum. ...
Hmmm. As a complete outsider who was considering buying the biggest proa I could get made, I have to admit I am extremely thrown off by this. I saw you in sail...

Hi Rob, Mark (if you're still here) A quick question which might resolve a great deal of the apparent tensions here: Would Mark consider building a Harry on...
... G'day, Comparing cats to proas using cat's layout and structure as the benchmark is a flawed premise. Modern cat layouts are the end result of minimising...
Hi Rob, ... FWIW, I captured and traslated the Flash "Under Sail" video on the Blind Date website into an .mp4 video to watch with Quicktime - and likely other...

Thanks Rob, Mark, and Michelle for providing so much over the last few years. A lot of progress has been made in the design from the earliest times, and as a...
G'day Nikki, The boats that I have seen are absolutely beautiful and sail like a dream. There is still development and a state of flux, but the capacity for a...
