"We had a great race. We sailed really well, managed to get a good start, and then we kind of controlled the race from there. So it's really positive, especially after the little disappointment yesterday." -Paul Goodison, American Magic Helmsman

► Discover our full test in Multihulls World N°199: https://www.multihulls-world.com/review/trimaran/rapido-53xs-a-trimaran-that-competes-with-catamarans ► A pleasant surprise: the first competitor to the Neel formula (three hulls topped by a large nacelle) has been presented at the Cannes Yachting Festival. The Rapido 53XS takes the Morrelli & Melvin hull design of the “classic” 50, using a fixed structure (i.e. not foldable) with an added 1,760 lbs (800 kg) of extra superstructure. The aim of offering a large saloon, 3 comfortable cabins and two bathrooms has been perfectly achieved: the difference in volume between the 50 and the 53XS is striking. The manufacturer could have stuck to this concession to comfort... but no, the appendages have also been completely revised. The draft of the appendages has been calculated so as not to exceed that of the central hull. We’ve organized for a test sail of this new trimaran just after the show. ► Builder: Rapido Trimarans Hull length: 52’10” (16.1 m) Beam: 34’ (10.36 m) Draft: 2.2’ (0.67 m)/12’11” (3.94 m) Light displacement: 20,613lbs (9.35 t) Air draft: 85’ (25.86 m) Mainsail: 1,259 sq ft (117 m²) Solent: 786 sq ft (73 m²) Stay-sail: 268 sq ft (25 m²) Gennaker: 1,615 sq ft (150 m²) Spinnaker: 2,476 sq ft (230 m²) ► Become a FREE SUBSCRIBER to Multihulls World's YouTube page now - https://www.youtube.com/c/MultihullsWorld ► Log on to our website to discover over 500 multihulls tests!

Share our joy while you watch this video of us sailing Freddie for the FIRST time ever!! We finished fixing and painting the cockpit, got some of the hardware for rigging back on the boat so we could actually use the Genoa (jib) and set sail for the FIRST time on Freddie! Sailing our own sailboat is such an incredible feeling! Have you ever sailed with just a Genoa? Please leave your comments below, like and subscribe to our channel to follow our adventures on Freddie the Tanzer 22! ⛵️
