Circumnavigating a trimaran

**Kai Nui** · 14-04-2006, 19:46

I came accress the following website: http://www.barefootsworld.net/windwa....html#dailylog
For those who are taking off on an older trimaran design such as the Piver, or Brown, this is a great site. It includes travel logs, and photos from the journey.

That man with the trimaran.

His tri has almost the same setup, like your tri is setup Kai!!

Minus the modification in the forward part of the deck area above the head!!

That is what drew me to the site. His rig is a little different though. At least, it was originally. Check out his midi links.

I already had checked the midi files he had.

Ole timey sailor chanty music. And old timey folk music.

I also found the WindWalker's site a couple of years ago and just finished reading it all a month ago. What an adventure and what an Ending!!! I emailed the guy to see how He was doing. He emailed back that His back still hurt Him and his sailing days might be behind him. Neat guy!

Darn shame, but at least it was an adventure to the end

And, Sounds like he returned in grand style.
