Proa Meeting 2024

This year we hosted our informal German proa and outrigger canoe meeting at our beach in Surendorf. Like the year before we had five canoes on the water:

On the first day we had a fresh onshore breeze with a little shore-break and choppy conditions. Sailing was a lot of fun. Below you can find a video of Lars and Reto racing around (other canoes parked at the beach to get the hands free for the drone):

First day with fresh breeze and choppy onshore conditions.

By the next day the wind had died completely. at least we managed to get all five canoes on the water at the same time for some fleet sailing (well, more drifting):

Second day, no wind at all
