NEEL TRIMARANS - IT JUST MAKE SENSE! This is the base price for a 2024 Neel 47, Commissioned in US Waters Call for availabilities and Configurations Why a Trimaran is SAFER at Sea ? The width of NEEL trimarans is an important factor for safety on the high seas because it is a guarantee of stability. On a catamaran, the maximum righting moment occurs at 12° heeling, as shown on the stability curve. This angle can be reached relatively easily when sailing in strong winds and heavy seas. However, on a trimaran, this maximum righting moment does not occur until 27° heeling, therefore in normal multihull conditions of use, this angle is never reached. For this reason, and thanks to the centered weight distribution, a trimaran is much more stable than a catamaran. Why a NEEL Trimaran is FASTER at sea ? Trimarans are significantly faster than monohulls or catamarans.The superiority of the trimaran is obvious during upwind sailing, especially due to the rig : on a catamaran, the ...
