Thats very like a Romy Rig , invented by an English man in the 1980s.

How did you affix the tripod together at the top?

“The battery died so you just didn’t see it” 🤣🤣😂🤣LOL!!! Epic line!

if this is polyurethane rod, what is the harness rating and size did you get?

Well done!

What is the hardness of the material (shore)?

Launch failure is part of the learning process, I had a launch failure trying to sail out today on 6-7knot winds -ideal, but the waves were like 3-4ft high paddling from the shore 😂

Congratulations! I never ever saw a trípode master. It’s a real good stuff!

so you didn´t make it with batter? i was expecting you to charge some pressure vessel with yeast in bread batter and use that to blow the horn. i am way disappointed.

Try some Morse code with that air horn thing-ha!

Well done. I advice to add Side daggerboards. On my sup "Promibunga" I fitted a polynesian sail with jib and stearing oar. KZfaq Bauanleitung Promibunga.

In northern Virginia, where it was ~90% covered, it didn't even get any darker. You wouldn't even know there was anything in front of the sun unless you had the special glasses to look directly at it.

Genial Amigo gracias

“The hole isn’t centered but it’s good enough because the rudder isn’t straight anyway.” I love it! This guy has no fear of stacking tolerances.

kzfaq.info/get/bejne/mph5n5il3r-whp8.html this might be an idea to run with

Dead calm and in moving water haha you are adventurous!

Best Quick assembly I have ever seen, elegant and simple with few parts. Awesome Thanks

It’s too long ! You don’t want the mast floppy , when you’re sailing

This is awesome! Have you managed to reef/furl the sail? Such a great idea/design as you can still row and paddle but also sail! Thanks!

This is good for an expedant boat build.

I like the convertable A-frame design idea. I've been think of that too for my 17 foot aluminum canoe ... perhaps with a roll up jib fore and aft for tacking upwind when it's too strong to paddle ... maybe sprits for bracing the sheets for downwind ... but I might be content with the leeboard leverage and a tilt of the gunwale for sailing downwind ... can't wait to see EP 10

It’s not a failure if you’re learning. Like the A frame design, it will work eventually

Great job and great starting concept, leads to looking at all the dhow sailing videos. Here’s a dinghy/outrigger, lateen-rigged with some bamboo spars, enjoy: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/obuIqrCBm9qwh4k.htmlsi=iafRo7Q-S4AgGt93

Back corner= clew

Interesting, thanks.

can this be modded for an inflatable SUP?

Do you have a centerboard? I feel like you are just going to get blown off to the side in stronger winds without one.

Beautiful rig

Where did you buy the material? What's the verdict? Has it been thoroughly tested?

awesome job brother. harness that wind!!!

ill never forget as a kid, my brother and i rigged a sail to our inflatable fish hunter boat and it worked really well in cape cod bay. we spent hours zipping around

FANTASTIC! I have the same canoe and I'm working on an outrigger, but this looks more simple . . . I'm wondering about the cable(?) loops you've got attached to the black rail? You've used the to connect pulleys & such. T The lateen rig does seem the way to go . . .

Some wind would be helpful

Copy the design of Moana boat (outrigger canoe) or proa

I built a sailing canue in 1981 and sailed it from corpus cristi TX to key west fl along the ice. It toulk me a year and a half camping out every night . Hope you too can have a great adventure.

I enjoyed the video and test, I'll go back and watch the others. But how are you going to jibe it? Tacking in a strong gust might capsize you. The clew is the back lower corner, furthest from the mast. Keep at it, new subscriber.

Mount the clear assembly under the deck plate with some D rings/ bolts to keep the lines aligned

This is great stuff. I hope that footer holds the mast well. Seems like there might be a lot of shear stress at the bottom, but a mechanical connection doesn’t sound like a good idea.

Ciao che materiale è

You guys are awesome

Great!

you may also consider having your lee boards fold so if you hit the bottom they pop back with a shock cord to hold them down. folding forward just looks like they will get damaged

If you run your main halyard down along your front tripod to a bow pully it will stop fouling your main you can then run the line down the gunnel rail to your jam cleat giving you clearer access to the centre of your canoe

great setup! thanks for sharing!

Thank you for sharing this enlightening video! It's inspirational and super creativity. I've learned a few new techniques from your approach. Your work has inspired me on project I am about to work on - using a ship's wheel to open a steampunk mechanical vault door- and this video came just in time and gave me some confirmation on how to start and what to look out for. Keep the creative content coming, it's greatly appreciated!"

Antonio you are the man bro

How would the plastic cloth hold up in the open sun

Respect

Congratulations for the Idea! Great! I'll try that. What is the sail's pole made of?
