    a disservice to those really interested in proas, Stay tuned for more, stiffening of the beams, the hull flying, Jzerro did not fail as a boat, overtake waves when running, water ballast, solid water on the deck, anything but academic, "constantly" meaning regularly

    did not have to shift ballast frequently on Jzerro, method of determining RM, adding to higher levels of normal stress on the beams, excess RM can be as much of a problem as too little, it is futile and is simply to reply to utter nonsense

    Rob,

    Actually, you have gone far beyond quoting (and we've covered this multiple times), misquoting, and taking out of context to support what are factually incorrect suppositions about Jzerro and others. Reptition of your misstatements does not make them more correct. I would be happy to sail a harryproa whenever I find one near enough to sail, but the only reason I have addressed your boats is only in reference to the false critiques you have made about Jzerro. If you would just shut up about her or at least just ask questions (and then perhaps, just perhaps, believe the answers from those of us who know her) you would not become such a lightning rod. That we have to not only once correct your needless attacks, even put up with insults when we have the temerity to question your views, is what gives us negative incentive to help you out. Steve
