1. Introduction

Rapido 60 Hull #02, Romanza, is available for sale. This pre-owned carbon fibre performance cruising trimaran combines a proven New Zealand racing record with the accommodation and capabilities of an offshore cruising yacht.

The Legend of Romanza

Romanza is not just any Rapido 60; she is a proven champion and a master of the Pacific. Renowned in the southern hemisphere for her dominance in the New Zealand racing circuit, Romanza has consistently demonstrated the raw power and engineering excellence that Rapido is famous for.

Why Romanza is Exceptional:

  • Proven Pedigree: Romanza has an outstanding racing record in New Zealand, including three PIC Coastal Classic Multihull Handicap victories in 2020, 2024 and 2026. Her latest triumph in October 2026 further demonstrates the performance of this well-proven Rapido 60, with her rigging, sail inventory and systems refined through years of competitive sailing.
  • Unmatched Versatility: While she has the soul of a racer, Romanza is fully equipped for the ultimate live-aboard lifestyle. Her spacious, open-plan interior provides a level of comfort usually reserved for heavy cruising catamarans, yet she retains the agility to hit speeds in excess of 25 knots.
  • Meticulous Maintenance: As a flagship for the brand’s capabilities, she has been maintained to the highest standards, ensuring that her composites heart remains as stiff and responsive as the day she was launched.
  • The Ultimate “Turn-Key” Opportunity: For a sailor who wants to skip the waitlist and step directly into a vessel that is already battle-tested and refined, Romanza offers a rare opportunity to own a piece of trimaran history.

Whether you are looking to cross oceans in record time or anchor in a remote bay where no monohull would dare to venture, Romanza is ready for her next chapter. She is more than a boat; she is a passport to the fastest, most stable, and most exhilarating cruising experience on the water today.
