Full test in Multihulls World N°202: https://www.multihulls-world.com/review/trimaran/dragonfly-36-performance-for-gliding-along-as-fast-as-the-windWe had the opportunity to sail aboard the Dragonfly 36, recently elected Multihull of the Year in the Sport Sailing category, in the company of Jens Quorning, the head of the shipyard which bears his name. This trimaran, in its Performance version (with a rig that is over six feet / 2 meters taller) is undoubtedly a fast and enjoyable multihull to sail. Without too much effort, you can be sailing at the windspeed... In terms of design, the 36 is the first Dragonfly to feature three inverted bows - until now, the central hull has always retained a traditional bow shape. Below deck, the new interior design features double cabins forward and aft, a separate bathroom, a fully equipped galley and a spacious saloon. The standard finish is in ash, with elm as an option. Like all Dragonfly models, this trimaran can be folded thanks to its optimized Swing Wing system. It takes just 1 minute and 30 seconds to reduce the width from 26’8” (8.12 m) down to 12’2” (3.7 m). As for the pivoting appendages, they make it very easy to take the ground, as we were able to see for ourselves. By the end of the International Multihull Show, the shipyard had already taken 27 orders, representing more than two years’ worth of production...

Wie, wann und warum der Inhouler auf der J 70 benutzt wird, würde hier jetzt zu weit gehen. Da spreche ich während der J 70 MasterClass drüber. Die kannst Du beim Segelberater Oliver Ochse buchen.
