Five years ago, the Czech-based shipyard offered us its IC36, a particularly high-performance and well-finished model. Today, there is a complete range of 52-, 58-, and 66-foot trimarans! These multihulls combine attractive design, performance, comfort, and ease of handling. The Kairos will, of course, be perfect for racing. Independent Catamaran is also preparing a range of catamarans called Aion, that we’ll be investigating very soon.
