Performance sailing multihulls explained.​

Engineering clarity. No interpretation required.

INSIGHT

Selecting between a catamaran and a trimaran is not about preference or tradition.

 

It is about choosing the most appropriate architectural solution for a defined sailing objective.​

 

High-performance multihulls demand clarity of purpose.

Hull architecture is the foundation of that clarity.

High-performance sailing multihulls are not defined by speed figures alone.

 

They are defined by balance, efficiency and control — consistently delivered in real offshore conditions.

 

Independent Catamaran designs sailing multihulls where performance is the result of disciplined engineering decisions, not marketing claims or theoretical optimisation.

High-performance multihulls are not for spectators.

 

They are for owners who sail, cross, and demand more from their boats.

Performance cruising is about motion, not mooring.

 

Efficiency, range, and real sailing capability come before interior volume and marina comfort.

 

A floating villa stays.

A performance cruiser goes.

Every unnecessary system is a failure point.

 

True offshore reliability comes from structural clarity, low complexity, and disciplined engineering.

 

Simplicity is not a compromise.

It is performance.

Owner-driven yachts are built for autonomy.

​

Lower loads, centralized systems, and intuitive sail handling replace crew-dependent solutions.

 

Less crew.

More sailing.
