Launch of a new Multi50 trimaran

The Multi50 class wins a new competitor in the person of Thibaut Vauchel-Camus who has just touched his new boat just launched. Coming soon: sailing pictures for the first trials.

Solidaires en Peloton is the last multi 50 launched. It has just hit the water in Dubai where it was built. This trimaran entering the Multi50 Class must be repatriated to France by cargo ship in order to be able to take the start of the Route du Rhum in November 2018.

This trimaran comes from the VPLP drawing board. It is equipped with an X-shaped platform and a circular clew that closes the stern. Its floats will be equipped with foils henceforth authorized by the rule. The cockpit on the central hull will be protected by a very characteristic deckhouse with new shapes.

This trimaran will be skippered by Thibaut Vauchel-Camus, a sailor from Malouin, a native of Guadeloupe, who tells us about his new boat: " This is the second Multi50 where the arrival of foils is at the heart of the design. This boat is going to be stiffer than the previous generation and I think we're going to gain 15% to 20% in top speed. This boatyard has been a wonderful experience for me, as I've never built a boat of this magnitude before. I became a conductor by being involved in all the components of her design and listening carefully to all the experienced people both on the boat and the technical side. "

The boat has been designed to adapt to both solo and crewed racing. It is a versatile trimaran that has been designed to receive adaptations for several years.
