RAPIDO 40 Trimaran - Boat Review Teaser - Multihulls World

► Full test in Multihulls World 189 :

► The Triac Composites shipyard and the enormous experience of its team
produces a wonderful range of high-performance trimarans from 40 to
60 feet out of its base at Ho Chi Minh City (HCMC), in Vietnam. The
manufacturer has unveiled its latest “little” boat, the Rapido 40. Trick of
the light - that’s its name - has shown good average speeds right from its
first sail. This model, in the Racer version, is boosted with C-foils
and a carbon rig. While the central hull has a very narrow beam at the
waterline, reasonable volume is nevertheless ensured inside, thanks
to a marked chine. The floats are particularly voluminous, obviously
guaranteeing good strength. And when you go alongside in port, they
fold like a dragonfly: the beam is reduced from 28’10” (8.80 m) at sea
down to 17’1” (5.20 m).

[@jimj2683]

Why are trimarans faster than catamarans when only two of the trimaran hulls are in the water at the same time anyway?

[@MultihullsWorld]

Most habitable trimarans on the market are much lighter than catamarans of the same size. The speed of a sailboat depends broadly on two main factors - sail-to-weight ratio and length. The lighter a sailboat is, the larger it is and the greater its sail area, the faster it will go...

[@robertarmstrong9166]

They point far better up wind, like a mono haul, hence using the leeward sides trihull as training wheels. and fast downwind due to more surface are in the water

Apa ada sailing club di ind Onesia

[@dancarter482]

おはよう ！あなたは、数人のインフルエンサーによって注文された Rapido 60、La Vagabonde 3 に関するビデオについて言及しました。彼らの旅は、まさに日本において、何事もなく続いているようだ。 Rapido 40 の完全なレビューはこちらでご覧いただけます: www.multihulls-world.com/review/trimaran/rapido-40-fast-foldable-and-worry-free

[@curio78]

trimarans are pretty dumb. just get a catamaran that can push out its two floats wider and move the rest to the center levalter living area.
