Competent Crew Course details: ➜ https://www.firstclasssailing.com/rya-courses/competent-crew Now we're on port tack, and we need to trim the headsail to make sure we're getting the best performance out of it. The lesson includes winching it in tight, ensuring the sheet lead car is set correctly towards the aft of the sheet lead track. This short clip was filmed during one of our RYA Competent Crew course lessons on the Solent. ** About the RYA Competent Crew course in Southampton ** The RYA Competent Crew course is the perfect introduction for beginners who want to get into sailing and is specifically designed for those with little to no sailing experience.

► Full test in Multihulls World 189: https://www.multihulls-world.com/review/trimaran/rapido-40-fast-foldable-and-worry-free ► The Triac Composites shipyard and the enormous experience of its team produces a wonderful range of high-performance trimarans from 40 to 60 feet out of its base at Ho Chi Minh City (HCMC), in Vietnam. The manufacturer has unveiled its latest “little” boat, the Rapido 40. Trick of the light - that’s its name - has shown good average speeds right from its first sail. This model, in the Racer version, is boosted with C-foils and a carbon rig. While the central hull has a very narrow beam at the waterline, reasonable volume is nevertheless ensured inside, thanks to a marked chine. The floats are particularly voluminous, obviously guaranteeing good strength. And when you go alongside in port, they fold like a dragonfly: the beam is reduced from 28’10” (8.80 m) at sea down to 17’1” (5.20 m). ► TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS Builder: Broadblue Catamarans - Length: 39’4” (11.99 m) Beam: 22’ (6.7 m) - Light displacement: 11,020 lbs (5 t) Draft: 3’7” (1.1 m) - Mainsail: 625 sq ft (58 m²) Self-tacking solent: 300 sq ft (28 m²) Fuel: 2 x 53 US gal (2 x 200 l) - Engines: 2 x 20/30 HP Price: £ 281,660 ex-tax - www.broadblue.com Builder: Rapido Trimarans/Triac Composites Architect: Morelli & Melvin - Material: composite Length: 39’4” (12 m) - Beam: 17’1”/28’10” (5.2/8.8 m) Draft: 22”/4’7” (0.56/1.4 m) - Displacement: 10,600 lbs (4.8 t) Mainsail: 700 sq ft (65 m²) - Solent: 345 sq ft (32 m²) ► 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!
