Rapido 60 trimaran design by Morrelli and Melvin

even better pic right there! I think what I like is that it doesn't look like a 60! looks like a comfy 48 or something.

I don't do Facebook for various reasons.

Wish they would post some new info here on the forum.
 
Thanks Doug.

You know I like sailing trimarans very much (particularly shorthanded), but I still don't think they compare that favorable with catamarans for overall livability for cruising.

Boy, how Vietnam has changed :!:
 
I am really loving this boat. But I love the gage line 'world fastest production cruising...' I guess they don't want any comparisons to Paradox.

It really is an interesting build.

Is Paradox a "production cruising trimaran"?

Nope, that was my point. Though everything is in place if you want to buy one. They already have what they need to go into serial production except the orders.

Hi Stumble ,

We actually are in production with hull number 2 well under way for a Kiwi Couple who love it enough to buy one . Launch date for Hull 2 approx Oct Nov 2016 .

It is almost a copy of Hull number 1 except for the controversial graphic design !
 
Paul,

I really wasn't trying to compare the Rapido to the Paradox. Two very different boats, I just liked the '...production cruiser...' Tag line. I found it numerous.
 
Hallo everyone,
I am interested to get as close to truth as possible about the issues of rudders on Rapido 60.
I read and saw video about 1 vessel claiming some problems and here and there is mentioned something else.
I think this is the right space for a technical discussion to analyze all the details that certainly involve different aspects.
For what i understood the main subject is about customization that modify the stress distribution of the effort on a vessel that is not made to reduce weight to the minimum and the effort is calculated on the original weight distribution.
Thanks
