To the subscribers of Multihulls Magazine here:

I am trying to get / read the article once published in MM
about a "proa with Flettner rotor"

According MM, they indeed had one in the 80´s,
but that was before desktop publishing came in,
and there`s no chance to search by keywords or such.

If anyone *has* those issues from 1980 to 1990,
theoretically 10x 6 = 60 issues of 60 pages each ...),
it would be great to get either the certain issue number,
or a small 100 dpi b&w scan 800x600 just monitor readable.

I am sure Ol´ Flettner thought of the proa first,
before he installed his rotors on coaster "Buckau" in the 20`s.

Thanks,
Chris

BTW, the designer of the discussed 6.5m Flettner proa
plywood-flat out built by the Flensburg University guys
is named Jonathan Foucher, most likely French
I`ll sail her tomorrow (Sunday).
