Not fundamentally different to Radical Bay 800 but still different. Radical Bay 800 is quite small. More like daysailer or weekender with little accommodation and open netting between hulls. Construction methods are advanced but still less so than Harrys. I would go for more advanced and radical than Radical Bay.
However, I took a look today at the latest what Rob has drawn and they look so goof that I have to give this a new thought.

Of course, all depends on your SOR's but I am not sure a proa is a no go for narrow waterways. Rob will correct me but I assume that below a particular wind speed a proa could tack. I remember a report that the Melbourne proa steered better in low winds with the ww hull to lee. In a busy waterway reversing direction in a flash to prevent a collision is an advantage. Then there is also the racy shunt procedure that Rob mentioned.
How would a HarryCat be fundamentally different from a Radical Bay 800 ?
