We know that learning to sail can be overwhelming and there is a lot to take in. In an effort to help, we’ve created a series of “Bite Sized Lessons” taken straight out of our textbooks – Sailing Made Easy and Coastal Cruising Made Easy. In this lesson we learn how tell tales behave in different conditions, and how to use them to keep your sails trimmed efficiently.

► Full test in Multihulls World #179: https://www.multihulls-world.com/review/trimaran/tricat-690-cruising-and/or-sport-as-you-like ► All first sea trials for the Tricat 6.90. Antoine Houdet, CEO of Tricat is at the helm alone and in a good breeze! Specialists in folding trimarans since 2003, Tricat have just launched a new model which fits between the Tricat 20 and the 25. In order not to (re)tread on the toes of any former models from the shipyard in this category (the 22 and the 23.5), they decided to integrate the metric system: so now you have the Tricat 6.90! We had the opportunity to test this model in particularly heavy conditions: at just 7 meters (22’8”) long, it showed itself to be as safe as it is fast. While the central hull is relatively traditional with its almost plumb bow and its very high chines. The floats are more modern, with a flush gunwale and a broken and inverted bow in the upper section. The main innovation of this new model is the removal of the traditional aft beam, freeing up circulation around the cockpit, especially for the helmsman. For the interior, some well thought-out packages and options allow you to increase the level of comfort. ► TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS Builder: Tricat Architects: BE Tricat / Jack Michal Material: polyester-infused GRP Length unfolded/folded: 22’8” / 24’11” (6.90/7.60 m) Beam unfolded/folded: 15’1” / 8’½” (4.60/2.45 m) Draft: 12” / 3’11” (0.30/1.20 m) Light displacement: 1,590 lbs (720 kg) Fully-battened mainsail area: 205 / 237 sq ft (19/22 m²) Solent: 104 / 116 sq ft (9.7/10.8 m²) Gennaker: 258 sq ft (24 m²) Spinnaker: 366 sq ft (34 m²) Outboard motor: 3.5 to 6 HP ► 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!
