The Bionic Broomstick

Posted by gasik on 10:05 with No comments so far
Skip Johnson has been working at the bleeding edge of experimental, backyard proa design and construction. 
The photo shows the proa tipped on it's side with the ama in the air.  The rigid wing sail is lying on the grass.  Since proas sail in either direction, there is a cassette rudder at each end.
Skip is not exactly new to this sort of thing having built a larger proa some years ago.
Here's a great video about Skip and the kayaks he's designed and built.
