The 43-footer they’ve designed here is a logical extension of the ORC42 program and perfectly complements the impressive GP70 (a VPLP design) offered by the Trimarine yard. We’re not yet dealing with a complete range of cruiser-racers, but it looks like it all the same. Thanks to its meticulous composite construction, the Trimarine 43 will be two to three times lighter than a mass-produced catamaran of the same size... the atmosphere on board will focus on the pleasure of sailing, minimalist layout and maximum autonomy. This model will be largely customizable, with hull #1 due to be launched in 2025.
