âș While the worldâs largest indoor boat show remains a must-see event, with an exhibition area of 220,000 mÂČ (just short of 55 acres) and 214,000 visitors (compared to 237,000 in 2023) from all over Europe and even much further afield, with some 120 nationalities represented â the 2024 edition will be remembered as a return to normality following two years of post-Covid euphoria. Some players are even nervous about the damage caused by inflation, rising interest rates and geopolitical uncertainties. For us, this 2024 boot vintage was most notably all a missed appointment for the multihull sailboat industry. Apart from a few sport catamarans and beach toys, only the Tricat 6.90 made the trip from Brittany to be displayed in hall 15, traditionally reserved for multihulls. With the exception of the Excess stand and the more or less consistent representations of a few builders (Fareast, Fountaine Pajot, Gunboat, McConaghy, Nautiks, Nautitech, NEEL Trimarans, Windelo...), the builders were clearly boycotting boot this year, making the âmultihull villageâ a deserted place. The absence of Lagoon, by far the world leader in the sector, is obviously highly symbolic. As for powercats, the atmosphere was a little less bleak, with the presence of the Prestige M48 and the YOT36. The Dragonfly 32 and 40 were be presented in Hall 16, alongside the monohulls. This is a long-standing incursion by the Danish shipyard, with Hall 15 only a few yards away... So, itâs presumably time to talk about the subject thatâs causing a stir: if multihull builders no longer come to DĂŒsseldorf, itâs because they donât feel they get much consideration there, even though they have become the driving force of the boating sector. Faced with a somewhat old-fashioned vision, the multihull builders are unashamedly claiming the heart of the famous Hall 16, even if it means upsetting the establishment... we are witnessing a kind of war of the worlds, that of the old and its traditional teak-capped monohulls against the modern and its yachts built for living aboard â on two or three hulls. But whoever said that the history of boating was a bed of roses? âș Become a FREE SUBSCRIBER to Multihulls World's YouTube page now - https://www.youtube.com/c/MultihullsWorld âș Log on to our website to discover over 500 multihulls tests!

Watch team GTR as they take on a boat restoration project ,stripping down and then rebuilding a 1990's fibreglass Mumm 36. Every fitting, wire and even the engine we was removed and refreshed before being refitted from the Bottom UP. The restoration project took around 18 months with the crew working the weekends to restore the boat to her former glory. Learn how we tackled a wide range of boat maintenance tasks and learnt a few restoration techniques. Jabberwocky is one of the original Mumm 36 yacht which race on the Med circuit. While I know it is consider bad luck to change a boat name Jabberwocky was not her original name. With that in mind and considering all the repair work we did if felt like she deserved a new name. GTR stand for Go to Red, I will leave telling the story behind that for another day. This boat restoration project was one of the most rewarding things I have ever done, if you get the chance to do some thing like this your self I would tell you to go for it.
