Rapid-Construction Multihulls

38' Demountable Trimaran

Demountable 38' trimaran available in both developed plywood and composite. 
This demountable 38' trimaran can be built in developed plywood or composite materials.  Even if built with ply/epoxy, it uses core materials to make the large panels stiff.

This tri has full standing headroom throughout, except when passing under the cockpit.  That pass-through gets one back into the aft cabin without having to open a hatch on top.

The connectives are the old stand-by of aluminum tubes and stainless steel wire.  That speeds up construction considerably.  The tubes can be one piece, or a pair front and back, to slide past one another.  That lets the tri get skinny in a marina.  Unlike a folder, it can be kept that way on the water.

Notice that this tri has the usual KHSD features to make it perform and maneuver; a deep board, big rudder,  big amas way out there, and top notch sail  handling arrangements.
