Varnishing can be a labour of love: On our last boat I applied 11 coats of varnish to the tiller and the results were fantastic... However, it took lots of time which I no longer have. If you're short on time, you can achieve decent results using the technique in this video. Will it get you on the cover of Classic Boat Magazine? Absolutely not! Will I make your boat look a lot better with minimal work? Yes! Subscribe for more handy sailboat DIY tips! Chris ??

? Full test in Multihulls World N°203. ? After its sojourn in La Grande-Motte where it made its world premiere, the Tricat 8.50 #1 returned to Brittany, where we got the opportunity to test it in the Gulf of Morbihan. The program for our trip out between two near-tropical squalls? Beaching on the shoreline and enjoying the thrill of gliding across flat water. Tricat, which has specialized in the under-30-foot folding trimaran sector since 2002, is replacing the valiant 25. Still folding, of course, the new 8.50 is logically much more modern than its predecessor, with an added touch of comfort and agility. The lifting daggerboards are found on the floats, freeing up the central hull. As for the companionway hatch, this has 3 positions and can be fitted with a sprayhood and sun awning. Inside, thanks to double chines, the 8.50 manages to offer rather decent headroom of 6 feet (1.82 m). There are proper berths, a fixed galley, heads and plenty of cleverly-used interior space. ? Technical specifications: Builder: Tricat Architect: BE Tricat/Jack Michal Unfolded/folded length: 27'11"/32'8" (8.5/9.95 m) Unfolded/folded beam: 21'4"/9'8" (6.5/2.95 m) Light displacement: 4,300 lbs (1.95 t) Draft: 18"/4'11" (0.45/1.5 m) Mainsail: 365 sq ft (34 m²) Genoa: 194 sq ft (18 m²) Code 0: 388 sq ft (36 m²) Asymmetric spinnaker: 721 sq ft (67 m²) Engines: outboard 6 to 15 HP CE Category: B4/C6 ?
