Thank you to the SO's of Erik Andreaa and Capt Glenn Shephard, as well as Malvina for getting this amazing footage for us! When we were invited to race on a Volvo Ocean 70 for the Halicarnassus Cup in Turkiye, we knew we would be in for a day of adventure. What we did not expect was for the spinnaker to blow on us as we were cruising downwind at 15 knots! It's a good thing our crew jumped into action right away, and we were all able to work together ro get it under control.

► Full test in Multihulls World N°194. ► On the agenda for the replacement of the NEEL 51: finesse at the helm worthy of a racing monohull, but equally suited to every possible use - charter, blue water cruising, and why not racing? The NEEL 52 offers various layouts ranging from 4 to 6 cabins, and even two separate crew accommodation areas. This new model logically abandons the Joubert/Nivelt stamp, taking on that of Marc Lombard Yacht Design – as with the most recent models from the brand. Forward, the three hulls feature a pronounced inverted bow: an excellent way to increase the waterline length without adding any real weight to the multihull – noting that the displacement is kept under control, at just short of 28,000 pounds. The NEEL 52 is capable of carrying almost 7 tons in cruising mode. ► TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS Builder: NEEL-TRIMARANS Architect: Marc Lombard Yacht Design Length: 52’2” (15.9 m) Beam: 28’10” (8.8 m) Draft: 6’3” (1.9 m) Light displacement: 27,780 lbs (12.6 t) Mainsail: 1,022/1,098 sq ft (95/102 m²) Genoa: 764 sq ft (71 m²) Staysail: 344 sq ft (32 m²) Water: 158 US gal (600 l) Fuel: 185 US gal (700 l) Engine: 110 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!
