if 5 degrees, i got 0.87m out.
for mast 10m, but i guess that is where the top of the mast is not the centre of gravity!
so actually the mast would swing suspended hanging, about half that or less, so 0.4m.
that's not so bad, but I maintain the cant isn't necessary to right a harrproa.
 
could call robert "5 degrees"
its also been about 5 degrees here in the mornings
 
thinking of plants, i thought that we had a good bush fire summer this year in perth, nothing too major.
how wa over east?

I was imagining only about 5-7 degrees. Depending how close to the edge, it would be another 30 or 40 cm out--- In harryproa@yahoogrou ps.com.au, Doug Haines <doha720@... > wrote:

> For about a 100 grand you could build a 110' Harry but not out of carbon. 33m/16m, 1m wide waterline. 1.5m high bow, 2m off the water at the crossbeams. 10m should be wide enough, but could go to 15m. 35m mast and 200m of sail displacement of 4.5 tonnes sailing with the narrower beam. Would be a little more difficult to put the mast in by yourself and would be difficult to put on the roof racks. Unfortunately bureaucracy gets in the way once over 15m.
