Hi!

I found this the other day. I don´t know anything about it but thought i should share it with everyone on this forum.
If anybody knows anything about this Proa please write it here.

OMG!!!

Whauuuu

Yet another example that reality allways beats imagination?
Or maybe it´s a nicely restored classic Fledermaus-hull with new wings.

But seriously - what a gem!

Thank you

OMFG!

Are those ports curved!?!?  That thing is a work of art-the lovechild of a humpback whale and a Riva speedboat.

But is it a proa or a tacker?  I think it might be a tacker.

Ya think the inside looks cool? ; )

Thanks for pointing this out Johannes!

Yes it is a tacker.

I have mailed the builder/owner and i have got some very interesting information about “Akka”.
I asked if i could post more pictures here, but i have not got any answer yet.
I will post it if he gives me permission to.

I know the inside looks cool!!!

Obviously, alien technology involved here. Reverse engineered from a crashed ship in the arctic. 😊

I got permission to post these lovly pictures.

Akka is 11 x 2,4 meter (main hull), 1,2 meter wide at the waterline and 5,9 meters wide total. The Vaka is spindle-shaped with a Naca 0066 profile. It has a Brucefoil in the ama.

I am in love with this interior. Its a mix between a Hobbit-house and a Proa.
Its soo beutifull. Im impressed by Fredriks carpenter-skills!
He is living in a Earth-Ship http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Earthship in souther Sweden. renovating boats ( a Ljungström Arch Bow hull at the moment) and building Proas…. What a life!!!

Empirical proof that alternate universes do exist.

Incredible.

I’m making an offer on a little 1000ft2 house with a 1200ft2 shop this week.  After the wallet recovers, i can finally start building.  Talk about motivation.

Thanks Johannes 😉

That is, indeed, a very cool and unique looking boat! Quite a showcase. It would be great to know about its sailing and handling performance.

On one picture in the last post, it seems like the boat received quite a blow, and damaged its bow. What a pity! Or is it just me, seeing things?

Thanks for finding and sharing.

Cheers,

Looks to me that it is folded/swung up -as it’s blocking the portholes further back? The last picture, from under, shows hinges I believe.

Hi Alex,
I see hinges too, I agree. But doesn’t it look like it would be hinged downwards?
Peter

I think it is a stainless steel plate, to give some protection when lifting the anchor.
See the picture below.
