Definition: flying proa
Proa
\Pro"a\, n. [Malay pr[=a]?, pr[=a]h?.] (Naut.)
A sailing canoe of the Ladrone Islands and Malay Archipelago,
having its lee side flat and its weather side like that of an
ordinary boat. The ends are alike. The canoe is long and
narrow, and is kept from overturning by a cigar-shaped log
attached to a frame extending several feet to windward. It
has been called the
flying proa, and is the swiftest
sailing craft known.
[1913 Webster]
