Elvstrom Sails UK team installing a new Epex Fat Furl mainsail to a Hallberg-Rassy 412, which required a much needed rig tune. It is so important to check your rig before you go sailing, this rig was slightly inverted, and after taking some measurements and resetting the rigging we were able to put the correct tension and pre-bend profile into the rig. We would recommend a yearly rig tune as well as before any sail is bent on, it’s great tha we do now offer this service in house at Elvstrom Sails UK.

► Full test in Multihulls World N°202: https://www.multihulls-world.com/review/catamaran/excess-13-is-the-range-getting-its-second-wind ► The Excess 13 has undoubtedly been one of the most eagerly awaited World Premieres at La Grande-Motte... this model is indeed unlike any other, starting with the fact that it bears a somewhat risky name – but we love it! And almost as a punchline to complete the joke, 13 units were sold on the opening day of the show... More seriously though, the main new thing about this catamaran is the signature it bears. The Lombard design team has been at work here, in collaboration with Jean Marc Piaton for the interior design. We discovered a nacelle of contained volume (as evidenced by the very wide side-decks), a galley that opens onto the cockpit, and fold-down sugarscoops. We like the futuristic design of the davits and the imposing span of the folding helm seats and the airy design of their protective biminis. Also noteworthy is a water recovery system on the coachroof, easy-access circuit breakers (at last) in a dedicated locker, and cabin doors that double as closet doors. The Excess 13 is available in 3- and 4-cabin versions with standard or Pulse Line rigs. ► TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS Builder: Excess Architect: Marc Lombard Yacht Design Group Length overall: 42’7” (12.99 m) Beam: 23’9” (7.25 m) Draft: 4’10” (1.48 m) Displacement: 23,370 lbs (10.6 t) Sail area: 1,238/1,335 sq ft (115/124 m²) Engine: 2 x 40 HP Fuel: 2 x 53 US gal (2 x 200 l) Water: 79 or 158 US gal (300 or 600 l) ► 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 600 multihulls tests!
