The new owner sent me picture of his trimaran that I unexpectedly co-designed with legendary designer Bob Perry back in ’92. Is 62′ or 63′ long by 45′.

I stumbled onto this nice picture of one of my 37′ trimarans racing. Europe.

I was sent a nice picture of my 63′ cruising tri.  Foam/glass hulls with carbon beams and mast.

I finally got

time to model the Trikala 19 trimaran in the “in-position”. It is less than 8′ wide (2.44m) in that position. And it expands back out in seconds. Building soon in Asia.

The Trikala

19 trimaran has been updated. The original design had a main hull and deck as 2 pieces. The update is a single piece, (well 2 halves) and looks more rounded. It also has X bows to increase speed in waves. I will be built in Asia.  It can be made ready to trailer in a few minutes.  It can stay on the water in the “in position” indefinitely.  I’m sure it will cost less than the same size folder.

I might have

had a pic or two of this before but I was sent a site that has a lot of them. Would have been ’89 or ’90.
CM construction. It looks good. http://www.flickr.com/photos/96861389@N00/sets/72157626206345542/

I see that Palmer Johnson has a new trimaran mega-yacht. It is 48 meters long. The 1% must be doing very well; it’s all carbon fiber. The design looks very post modern multihull: like Mike Schacht work, to the third power. The amas are just vestiges though; they could not support anything. However, as the guys from NAVSEA once reminded me, those amas could diffuse the thermal signature, protecting it from heat seeking missiles.  It really is just a typical portly mega-yacht, albeit in carbon, with amas pasted on.

Ok Ok, this is why I have been kind of underground for a few days. Was rush deadline for the Singapore Asian Cruise Conference. 49 passenger, traditionalesque trimaran for Palawan. Foam/glass construction. Aeroesque rigs for easy handling. 65′ long

, not counting the styling prod and tail.
