2019年9月25日 · I've been doing research on the options for building a small trimaran under 20' that can carry 2 people (more or less). I'd like to summarize what I've learned and see if it fits with the general consensus. I'm no expert, and I welcome all …

2019年7月15日 · I have seen trimaran design in Philippines using solid fiberglass (flat panel) as stringers/frame. It is designed the same concept and structural as wooden hull motor bancas. Is flat panel stringers any good? What about buckling issues, compared to foam cored or hollow fiberglass stringer? Any input is appreciated.

Back in the 70s Bernard Rhodes sailed his 22ft plywood Trimaran, Klis from the UK to New Zealand, somehow i cant imagine doing that in an F24. My point is the older tris struck a much better balance between weight, displacement , sail area etc producing seaworthy boats with a reasonable turn of speed, typically better than similar sized monos.

2024年12月25日 · I would like to build my own 27' trimaran boat with an 8'-6" beam using a one-piece fiberglass hull and use a 250 hp outboard, and would weigh 7,000 lbs. max., fully loaded with fuel, gear and people. I would like to have this boat go 35-40 mph. I do not like the round aluminum pontoons that all tritoon manufacturers put under their boats.

2019年2月17日 · There seems to be a real gap of trimaran plans out there in the 40- 50 foot range- I am only finding trailerable tris, or very old Piver type designs, or the 54 foot Chris White Hammerhead.....

The newer trimaran designs are far far better. For a performance/racer you cant beat Ian Farrier but his designs are too race orientated for me. Trimarans, designed for cruising, have a lot going for them. The key factor is designed for cruising. They …

2021年1月10日 · Re: Trimaran - Especially Searunner - Owners Sounds like you've thought through all the aspects. One is much less expensive than the other, one is easier to deploy and withdraw than the other, and you've already revealed your preferences as to …

2011年6月5日 · "For instance, if the trimaran takes off over a wave, drops 10ft, lands only on her floats with the main hull over a trough and comes to rest after sinking two feet into the water, the resulting calculations show a beam strength required that is similar to the static tests just done." ( I'd like to see the paper work on those calculations.)

2015年9月8日 · In the mid-1980s with costs spiralling out of control in the Class One offshore multihulls - at that point 85ft long behemoths - some bright sparks in France came up with the concept of Formula 40, a multihull built to a box rule - trimaran or catamaran, with 90sqm upwind sail area, 180sqm downwind and a minimum weight of 1,800kg.

2015年2月12日 · 16) The Fire Arrow-the first trimaran of any size to use a wand controlled main foil coupled with UptiP ama foils, 17) Gary Baigent's Foil assist trimarans using "L" foils on the amas, 18) Doug Halsey's continued development of Broomstick, a 15' trimaran foiler using "V" foils-with and without amas.
