During the sea trials of 880 trimaran #1 we have captured some footage of various angles and points of sail. This is all rough and unedited, but offers you a glimpse into our initial testing of this incredible new trimaran.

Sailing through orca territory isn’t something we take lightly and while preparing this post for you guys, we heard another sailboat calling for help on the radio..How we stay informed and reduce the risk as much as possible: 📍We monitor:• GT Orcas App – To stay updated about interactions, sightings and risk mapping. • www.orcas.pt – MMSI verified fellow sailors for live-updates. • Telegram groups – Live updates from fellow sailors. • Orca Facebook groups - to stay updated. • We listen to channel 16 (as always) and when we here something related to a orca situation we start recording the conversation so we can go back and listen to it again ex. if we didn’t get the position, name of the vessel etc. ⚠️Our precautions:• We have chosen to only sail in daylight – Which sometimes means early mornings to do a long leg. If something were to happen, we rather want to handle it in full visibility than in the dark. • We have chosen to stay in shallow water - inside the 20m depth counter when possible, but still keeping a safe distance from breaking waves and shallow hazards. • We carry a duffel bag full of sand on deck– The most humane way to try and deter orcas, should they approach the rudder. • We maintain constant lookout – For tall dorsal fins, but also for coastal fishing gear when close to shore. • We talk through roles and action plans - so everyone onboard knows what to do in case of an emergency. 🚨Our procedure in case of an orca interaction: 1: Engine on, max speed, turn boat towards shallows and/or land. 2: One person in charge of throwing sand in the water to hopefully prevent the orcas from damaging the rudder. 3: One person in charge of flipping the swimmingladder down in the water and banging it with a hammer to make loud noises in the water to deter the orcas. 4: Other important things is to issue a Pan-Pan call on the vhf, continuous lookout and video documentation of the interaction. N.B that this is simply the way we’ve chosen to handle the situation, not a detailed A–Z guide on how you should proceed. Always make sure to research the specific area you’re sailing in. Stay safe. #orca #sailing #shortoftheday #circumnavigation

► The aluminum catamaran that we discovered just over two years ago in Hellevoetsluis, in the south of the Netherlands, is without doubt one of the only 40-foot catamarans on the market to adopt this robust, 100% recyclable material. Vann Yachts’ eco-responsible approach is also reflected in the use of electric motors and the adoption of non-polluting and/or recyclable materials, such as the highly successful new headlinings fitted to the R4 #2 presented at Cannes. In addition to these first two R4s, the builder has already launched two R5s, and two more catamarans are currently in production. A great success story for this young company... ► Builder: Vaan Yachts Length: 42’ (12.8 m) Beam: 23’2” (7.06 m) Draft: 4’3”/6’5” (1.3/1.95 m) Displacement: 24,000 lbs (10.9 t) Mainsail: 592 sq ft (55 m²) Solent: 323 sq ft (30 m²) Gennaker: 1,453 sq ft (135m²) Engines: 2 x 10 or 15 kW ► 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!
