To generate income in an increasingly congested day charter market, you need a unique selling proposition to sail ahead of the fleet!

The Rapido 60 Trimaran (built exclusively by Triac Composites) is the day charter boat – in sail or power configurations – to differentiate your company. It differentiates by offering your paying passengers a genuine sailing experience where they can actually feel the wind rushing across their faces. It’s only the turning heads of passengers aboard the lumbering catamarans and slow monohulls that can keep up with the Rapido 60! When International Multihull World magazine reviewed the Rapido 60, it noted that, “All of the other sailboats seemed to be stuck in a sticky sea while we surfed consistently with peaks at 16 knots“.
