71' Tri w/ Flared Main Hull

A generous 71' world cruising composite trimaran.

This trimaran was designed to combine the experience of a 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 Portugal, but was not actually built. 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 4 series Yanmar provides power when the wind dies, though this unit will sail much better than a cat in those light conditions.
