Hey Thanks Mike.

Thats a sweet looking proa. Seems like a spiral up not down though.
Schooner rigged!?

Get rid of the schooner rig, Move to a rotating mast to windward a few feetfrom leeward hull. Get enclosed seating more to leeward a few feet from windward hull on both sides, integrate cuddy into windwarward hull, narrow beam and give the hulls a little more rocker. Possible lengthen windward hull a tad. Boom!!! Just an after thought...

Or take the Gougeon 32 make hulls at both ends like bow halfs already or close to . Add anthoer cuddy to the opposite side
for a total of two cuddys between hulls shorten windward hull a few feet and move mast to center and slightly towards leeward hull add a second roller furling system to new bow. Boom!!! Trailerable proa with room for four easy...
