A Proteus 106 catamaran in Thailand

Rick enjoying his Proteus 106,left click pictures to view in a larger size.





Thailand looks like a nice place to hang out,in this case the boat was built there too,from plans,our Proteus 106 kits followed this first boat to launch,it looks good and from the owners comments below sails really well.

Hello Angelo,


Photo's of my sail boat in Koh Chang, Koh Mac, Koh Kood Islands, Thailand

I still have poor fitting second hand sails and need more work, but having fun with the boat.

I Recently sailed to windward in 35 plus knots gusts of head wind and full steady wind of 25 knots with 2nd reef and 2 meter waves. Had some waves over the cabin top and really tested the boat build.

I was very happy with the boat and it pointed very well to weather. It was not a enjoyable beat to weather, it was only about 4 hours. But the boat got a good test.


Best Regards
Cheers
Rick
