Keeping the Proa in Epic

22 April 2022     Editor    3 Comments.

Ryan Finn has successfully completed his epic voyage from NYC to San Francisco, around Cape Horn, single-handed, in a 36’ plywood/epoxy proa. 93 days after departing New York, he sails into Frisco, under the Golden Gate, flying the ama by Alcatraz, and finally docking at the Richmond Yacht Club.

We proa fans can’t help but feel a bit proud. Well done Ryan.

Jzerro was designed and built by Russell Brown, right here in Port Townsend.

  • Push the proa arguments aside. Their sailors prove it: pacific proas
    rule. Congrats Ryan!
