79' Trimaran

A generous 79' world cruising composite trimaran.

This trimaran was designed to combine the experience of a very wide open living room on the water that a big cat has, with the superior manuverability and upwind work that a tri gives.

It was initiated by a client in Belgium, but he disappeared after his first payment, after it went though several complete revisions, at no extra cost. I am offering this set for the remainder of the design fee. This would be an amazing yacht to own. The owner can gaze out the picture windows like a cat has, but it will outperform the same size cat in the nasty stuff. The original design had a conservative rig size. I would be pleased to revise it to the hot.

Construction is foam/glass. A larger 350 hp Yanmar provides power when the wind dies, though this unit will sail much better than a cat in those light conditions.
