The new BTC-22 Mark 2 is a British built performance trailer sailer which has been designed around the needs of single handed, family and racing sailers alike. Boasting a resin infused hull for a high degree of ‘stiffness’ at a low weight the BTC-22 also offers a powerful rig, a large open cockpit, coupled with a contemporary hull shape, long water line and twin rudders. So, the BTC-22 is sure to please the sporty sailor whether single handed or with a full racing crew. The deck plan uses modern high spec trimming systems, making for an efficient sailing experience with maximum enjoyment. There is plenty of storage above deck with two cockpit seat lockers and one large locker under the cockpit sole, big enough to take an outboard motor and lots besides. Two versions of this Buckley pocket cruiser are available – both the cruising version (BTC-22) and the performance version (BTS-22) have resin infused hulls and and are fitted with a lifting bulb keel but the superlight BTS-22 is made largely of carbon and boasts even more sail area. Both versions are compact and light enough to be trailerable. The BTC22 is a fun family boat too with plenty of room below deck. In the large airy cabin the BTC22 has 4 berths – one generous, 2 metre V berth and two giant settee berths measuring 2.5 metres each. Add a galley unit, a removable dining table and space below the V berth for a removable chemical toilet and you have all the components needed for comfortable overnight stays. This film was taken in light winds during a demonstration event at Rutland Water in the UK in July 2022. See more details here: https://boatsonwheels.com/boats/btc-22-with-trailer/

► Cruise in Multihulls World Special Issue Power N21: https://www.multihulls-world.com/articles-catamaran-trimaran/ibiza-barcelona-300-nautical-miles-on-a-leen-56 ► Full test in Multihulls World Special issue N16: https://www.multihulls-world.com/review/motor/leen-56-welcome-aboard-an-ocean-going-vessel ► 300 nm aboard one of the very rare motor trimarans on the market NEEL Trimarans, born in 2009, can claim to be the only manufacturer to offer large production trimarans - 30 units are produced every year. This new brand of powered trimarans called LEEN (a clever reflection of Neel, being named after the owner and founder of the yard, Eric Bruneel). The first model launched (before the 72 and now the very new the 51) is therefore the LEEN 56, characterized by the two floats significantly shorter at the bows compared to the central hull, and by a platform of large surface-area, topped by an imposing flybridge. The advantage of these new ocean-going multihulls is their very low drag: consumption will be limited to 2 liters (just over ½ US gal) per mile at cruising speed (9 knots). The diesel engine in the central hull can be supported by two electric pods - one in each hull - to facilitate maneuvering in port and for leaving an anchorage with the greatest discretion. We were able to sail aboard hull #2 for 300 miles from Ibiza to Barcelona. ► TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS Builder: LEEN Trimarans Architects: Nivelt and Frutschi Overall length: 56’1” (17.10 m) Beam: 27’1” (8.25 m) Draft: 4’3” (1.30 m) Light displacement: 48,500 lbs (22 t) Water: 215 US gal (825 l) Fuel: 1,520 US gal (6,000 l) Motor: 305 HP Cruising speed: 9/10 knots Max speed: 11.5 knots Cabins: 3 to 6 CE Certification: A ► 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!
