I love this feature for two reasons; first, it is a great example of how responsive Vision is to customer feedback that can make the boat better, and second, because I had at least a little input in its creation! In a nutshell, they help prevent the running rigging from getting snagged on the rigid solar panel corners. Flexible panels wouldn't have this problem to begin with, but they are nowhere near as efficient, they get hot and they don't last as long. We were very happy to be getting rigid solar panels, but were less than thrilled about having to be super vigilant to prevent a damaged sheet or panel. I believe these clips will fully remove this concern; thanks Grant (Vision Engineer)! Want more?

► 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!
