Sailing Canoe

[@Doribi117]

Love the idea of a sailing canoe, keep up the good work

[@FantomsNephew]

Thanks! It´s great fun!

[@ilyafaden1789]

Fiberglass canoes are the best for modifications. One can put almost any type of rig on them. Great video and a good job.

[@FantomsNephew]

Thanks!

[@Snorting-tuna]

Welcome back it has been along for years

[@FantomsNephew]

Thanks! Yep, too much painting the house and that kind of stuff….😁

[@leemelbourne3297]

No leeboard? How well does it go upwind?

[@FantomsNephew]

Quite well, since there is a CENTERboard!😁 I used all gear from the Optimist, including the daggerboard. Convinient and effectice, but does not fold upp when running aground.😬

very nice man! long time i follow this channel 2016... saluts from Argentina

[@FantomsNephew]

Thanks! Glad U liked it!

[@penningmeesterzkv3289]

Looks verry good. how does it sail with 10 knt wind?

[@FantomsNephew]

Thanks! I don’t remember exactly, but I would say the wind was about 10knots that day, at least in the end of the clip.😊

[@elvisslo]

Pretty ingenious or shall better yet very clever!

[@FantomsNephew]

Thanx! Glad You liked it!

[@yekutielbenheshel354]

Well done!

[@FantomsNephew]

Thank You, Sir! Longing for next summer!

[@Meric_N]

Another nice vehicle ☺️ One day I'll make my own electric velocar and, when I get it, I will come see you in your Nordic country !

[@FantomsNephew]

Thanks! You are welcome!

[@Canoesailor]

Fun video! Thanks ;))

[@FantomsNephew]

Thanks! Hope there will be opprtunities to shape up the bow during the winter. (However with no hope to reach the sleekness of your beautiful creation!)

[@Canoesailor]

@@FantomsNephew looking like a go anywhere boat already :)

[@josemarcosmonteiro1752]

How much wind it needs?

[@FantomsNephew]

Very little!

[@OliverCromwell1640]

Got any more videos of you sailing. How well does your drop keel work. I plan on building a sailing canoe either a drop keel similar to yours

[@FantomsNephew]

Thanx! Drop keel/daggerboard works fine, and I use it now and then for better stability when paddling aswell! A minor disadvantage is that it does not fold up if/when its not enough depth…🤔😃
