Strike 15 trimaran

This edited video from a couple of years ago shows Frenchman Patrick on his Strike 15 trimaran using his headcam. He made a couple of changes to my design, most notably by the addition of a trapeze. Also he didn't fit the cockpit "wings" and is using a cut down A class cat rig. Despite the trapeze he is not a gung-ho young sailor - he is in his late 60's. Having said that he is a very experienced multihull sailor having built/owned/sailed many multihulls. Including a Strike 20 trimaran which you can see elsewhere on my youtube channel. In his own words "Some news of my Strike 15 ! On 23 July, I raced the Round of Sanguinet Lake, singlehanded,  with screecher. I finished 13 over 33 on the line after 1h 53 min, behind A class cat and before every other boats, including Dart single and double, ncluding a HC 18 spi (very bad sailed however!). Unfortunately they put me a rating faster than a singlehanded Dart18 (about 1 min a half per hour) and I finished 16 on handicap. In fact I was 13th at the windward leg, but the next leg was too close winded to take advantage of the screecher, and the Darts are faster on close reaching, owing to their longer waterline, so two of them passed me. On the last leg I passed them broad reaching."
