This video, taken by Patrick G in France and copied here with his permission shows his Strike 20 trimaran on its fourth sail. I quote from his email " we achieved 9 / 10 kt to windward, 16 kt broad reaching under gennaker ( 14.8knots over 500 m and 14.3 over a nautical mile) The Strike 20 has a simple dory shape plywood main hull and uses beach cat outriggers and rig. so it is an easy cheap way to build your own performance trimaran.

Many people think that a 40ft x 25ft catamaran must be very hard to manouver in confined spaces, but this video disproves that. this is a home built 25year old Nimbus catamaran that has sailed over 50,000 miles. This design has now been replaced by the Transit 38. See more here www.sailingcatamarans.com

This 25ft Elf catamaran is shown sailing under bare poles in a gale off S Spain on an 800 miles trip home from the Canaries. Note how dry the boat is and how relaxed the singlehander - he's filming it after all! The Elf 25 is a grp catamaran and is now back in production in N France.
