That was a really fun adventure, I owe Mat Conboy a real vote of thanks for the opportunity to sail in the 9 day Tawe Nugganah ( that means "travel by canoe in the local indigenous language) raid then to present at the Australian Wooden Boat festival.
Nice video. I would like to meet JW in person at some point/ event. I love his designs and thoughtful consideration of the "why." The evolution and trial and error of it all. Also, his willingness to think a little differently, knowing everything in sailboat design, is a compromise when considering the boat's intended purpose—wind strength, healing motion, how the bow and hull split the water, etc. Maybe we need to have a raid on Kaneohe Bay and invite John!
