In a David-and-Goliath replay the 14-foot-6-inch long Weta trimaran streaked like an agile mouse amidst a herd of elephants.

Weta trimaran top speed. The higher the number the faster speed prediction for the boat. I keep seeing videos and reading posts about how fast the Weta trimaran is. If theres one boat that will get any sailor excited about multihull sailing and small-boat.

In testing this sail has worked very well over a wide wind range. The outstanding performance potential of the large ocean sailing record beaters translates well to the Weta design. Is that fast for a boat with 3 sails and made of carbon fiber.

And it was quick. Perhaps their should have used plastic. Weta Trimaran Review - Jay Winick.

The apparent wind created by the propulsion of the EP helps generate the additional speed. Keep in mind that a trimaran holds the record for the fastest circumnavigation of the globe both crewed and solo. A trimaran smashed the transatlantic record less than 4 days over 40 knots average speed.

I was pessimistic in my expectations of this boat. With a bit of a breeze on you can reach speeds of 20 knots. My top GPS-measured speed on it was 159 mph as fast as I.

The main and jib are combined around 100 ft2 and the screacher is 60 ft2. Return to Duck Cup - Stephanie Taylor. It was practical.
