1. Wow! What a craft.!
   Can there be a splashboard on the inboard gunnel installed. To stop some of the spray coming on deck.

2. Wow. What were wind conditions and how fast do you think you were sailing?

3. Looks fun wow enjoy!

4. Cool chamorro flying proa

5. Just like the Bangka ☺ Only difference is, this one has a single outrigger, whereas the Bangka has two outriggers, one on each side. Also, we have the Paraw type, as well as that type of sail mast (crab claw).

6. I see you edited out the shunt??? Guess its a messy job?

7. Good fun. Looks like you need a 3:1 purchase on your sheet.

8. Beautiful,I use to watch Canoe race here in marshall islands..

9. If I may ask, what was the dearset part of the $500 as the cost of the mast and boom would be negligible, the sail is homemade rice bag, Paddle would be free.
   Also you might attach a small wooden block at the paddlling point with a tiller that would take the load off your arms. And a bridle for the mainsheet going out to the end of the boom to take some of the flex out. And it might be simple enough to make a two hole block for the sheet to give you some
   mechanical advantage, Love the flexibility of the outriggers fore and aft.
   When Cook was sailing the Pacific he saw vessels like these and was amazed how high they could point and how fast they sailed but English pride would not allow that anybody non British ,especially Pacific natives could posibly have a better idea than those fat round tubs that could barely point 60 off the wind.And the Dutch showed them centreboards decades before the English would admit they were a good idea.

10. Are there any building plans available for this boat?

11. awesome

12. cool!

13. Just subscribed! great canoe, great sailing, or to be correct great flying!!! Great channel!!! Keep Shunting, Balkan Shipyards

14. I was surprised how flexible the Aka was. It totally makes sense in that it allows the ama to follow the wave contour without concentrating the stress, but compared to most other multihulls it is very twisty.

15. The outrigger is the most finest and flexible among his Malay relatives without the coconut fiber it will all fall apart.

16. Many genius aspects of how the vessel sails demonstrated – in particular how the outrigger moves across the water independent of the main hull

17. Witam. Czy można kupić twój projekt Proa. Pozdrowienia z Polski.

18. Definitely a two person job there lol , took a bit to handle proa , awesome sailing there . 👍

19. how do i get one in marseille france! it is my dream boat! I guess transport from the marshal islands means a build is the only option! thanks for the awesome video

20. oh I wanna fly to Marshall Islands just to build one! Beautiful machine. How high do you think you could point?
    I have made an outrigger sailing Kayak, and it's a joy to use, but I really need an assymetric hull and that amazing shock absorber rigging set up. Are there any plans/tips for the mentioned design elements? (please don't say Gary Dierking. he adapts and changes sails/hulls, I want to learn about the Marshallese technology specifically. Like for instance, what is the ideal ratio of outrigger size/length to main hull? What is the best length of aka as a percentage of total hull length, I notice it is very long on the KorKor…errggh! I have so many questions and nobody to answer them
