**** After major refit at Multiplast, she is like new! **** Although launched in 1996 with almost 100,000 miles (185 000 km) on the log, this 25 m (82 ft) multihull is one of Multiplast’s most significant creations in terms of cruising catamarans. Designed according to the very specific needs of a yacht for both private and owner’s use, she was designed in exactly the same way as a racing one-off. Her hulls were tank tested and the yard applied rigorous control over the materials and a strict analysis of the weights of all elements. The platform (hulls, beams and bridgedeck) were built in carbon fibre, and oven cured in a vacuum bag. Today such method is the expression of the most advanced technology for obtaining light and strong structures. Her rig benefits directly from feedback gleaned from ocean racing. She has a spreaderless carbon fibre wing mast anchored on carbon chainplates (with Kevlar shrouds). All these parts were entirely made by the Multiplast yard. The result, she is one of the fastest cruising yachts in the world. She is capable of sailing faster than the true wind, reaching a speed of 20 knots in only 18 (33km/h) knots of wind. And the speedometer can often be seen beyond 25 knots (46km/h). And in light airs, she is indecently fast thanks to the extremely controlled weight of the interior fittings and equipment that is obviously consequent on a vessel of this type. With just 5 knots (9km/h) of wind, the catamaran is capable of sailing at 9 knots (17km/h). Indeed, never before has a cruising yacht sailed so fast, and all that in total comfort and perfect safety. For the Multiplast, she is a perfect illustration of its capacity to fullfil a cruising project just as well as a competition one, from the initial design study to the final technical adjustments. | ||
