The Astus 20.5 high speed trailer sailer. Top performance trimaran cruising just became affordable! Double the speed of an equivalent size monohull whilst sailing on a super stable platform with massive 930l floats. This trailerable trimaran is easy to launch and recover thanks to telescopic floats which can be extended in minutes! Lightweight construction makes it half the weight of an equivalent monohull, so the Astus 20.5 can be towed behind a small family car. The even lighter 'Infusion' version weighs only 470kg so can be towed on an un-braked trailer. Weekend sailing for 2 adults on a long v-berth with space for a chemical toilet under. 2 smaller quarter berths for children or adults who want to get cosy. The Astus 20.5 is available for viewing and trial sailing at Boats on Wheels in Hampshire, UK. We look forward to seeing you soon!
Boat safety tip: Attach correctly sized bungs to every through-hull fitting in your boat. If you need one, it's ready to plug a hole!

Few British pre-war cruiser-racers have had so much love and care lavished on them, but this striking 50 ft classic yawl - Fred Shepherd’s last design - thoroughly deserves it. AMOKURA's story is remarkable and her ability legendary. Almost as if she demanded it, her few owners over more than 80 years have always let her off the leash as a long-distance cruiser and passage racer; in present ownership she has completed the past two Fastnet Races and cruised extensively. https://www.sandemanyachtcompany.co.uk/yacht/775/AMOKURA Through the lessons learned during voyages that offer time to think, AMOKURA has been refined and improved to the extent that she is most probably a more able yacht than when launched by Moody's in 1939. Yet she is doing exactly what her designer and commissioning owner envisaged. Down below that is achieved with rather more comfort than the 1930s sailor accepted, but with no loss of charm and period feel. AMOKURA is very special, and, of course, she doesn't need to be sailed far away to be enjoyed and to give back.
