This fine Weychan trimaran...  finished 5th in her class in 1976 in the OSTAR single handed trans Atlantic race. Her skipper was John de Trafford. Just to finish in this race is quite an accomplishement.

The Original Single Handed...  Trans-Atlantic Race (OSTAR) is the world’s oldest solo ocean challenge, dating back to 1960. Founded by ‘cockleshell hero’ Blondie Hasler and first won by the circumnavigator Sir Francis Chichester, the race has upheld its Corinthian roots, providing aspiring professional and amateur sailors with the ultimate challenge. Val Howells remains the sole survivor of that first race.

Some of the world’s greatest sailors...  have taken part in this competition including; Eric Tabarly, Pete Goss, Loick Peyron, Francis Joyon, Mike Golding, Michel Desjoyeaux and Ellen MacArthur. The Atlantic is the only judge and allows no room for mistakes, emphasising that the race truly is inspired by legends and sailed by heroes.

Here is a quick link...  to a Photo Slideshow presentation which includes a number of extra photos of this super fast yacht. This trimaran was built for speed and racing so creature comforts were not a big consideration in her design. However, I found her to be quite unique and quite comfortable indeed. She comes fully equipped and completely ready to go to sea either racing or cruising. Have some questions? Contact Us Today!

 Paul Weychan 56 Trimaran 

My personal inspection...  of this yacht showed me that she is solid and well maintained. Her rigging appears to be in very good condition. I could find no soft spots anywhere on her decks. She has full headroom throughout with the exception of the aft cabin. She sleeps four comfortably. Her mainsail is brand new and the rest of her sails are in very good condition. She has another full set of sails at Ratsey and Lapthorne Sailmakers in England where they were sent for inspection and reconditioning. A full battened main plus five other sails can be retrieved by paying the sailmaker 1,370 British Pounds and the shipping costs to wherever. This yacht is extremely fast and, although designed as a racing yacht, she is quite comfortable inside. Her engine is clean, well maintained and runs perfectly. A list of included inventory is included below as well as specifications. Have some questions? Contact Us Today!
