It gives good proteccion from the waves when we are going to weather, this is important because the boat is very wet in this situation (and the water is cold in the Río de la Plata). However this tent does not give shelter from the sun.
You can see more pictures in http://picasaweb.google.com/abellandres
I will send you an email in spanish.
Regards, Andrés.

When I was young I spent new year's on ipanema beach and awoke to a candle procession over my passed out body.
Today's multihulls come from a polynesian tradition that is very old and sailed successfully over most of the pacific ocean. their method was to build models that they raced against one another and placed bets in the races, so a fast boat was desirable. they built their full size boats from the models and then could decide if any changes were successful or not. So, it is good that you are following the tradition and building a model. we will follow your project and wish you success in 2010.

We will be in Rio on Tuesday 25th January just for the day. If you are going to be in the area and would be happy to meet with us to discuss Wharram building and owning, we would enjoy it very much. Please let us know as soon as possible.
