NEEL 47 REVIEW - The Best Way to Judge a Boat

Reviewing a boat without sailing it makes as much sense as reviewing a restaurant without actually eating there. Yet, we have seen several of these reviews where they've only walked around at boat shows. In spite of being named Boat of the Year by a couple of sailing magazines, one of the most brutal youtube reviews we've seen was the Neel 47. In a world filled with opinion, there's only one way to find out the truth: go sail it ourselves.

Anchoring made easy - Trimaran Spirit - The Simple Life - Ep16

In this video we go through Spirit's anchors and what we use for a stern anchor and why. We also show our bridle and how we attach it to the chain. We do a few things differently onboard and we hope that these maybe be applied to other peoples boats and that they can help them.

She was TERRIFIED. Our First SOLO Trimaran Sail

Sharks, heights, deep diving all no problem but I am happy to admit when I am scared! This fast little boat definitely got the best of me on our first solo trimaran sail????. We do our best to not include our personal drama in these videos but if there is an issue and we figure out how to get over it we are happy to share. My advice to you: Figure out what terrifies you and WHY then learn the things you can control to fix it. For example, I was(am) scared of how fast this boat goes because things can go wrong so much faster when you are going so fast. How am I getting over it? I am learning how to control the boat, sail it on my own, and practice man overboard drills just in case! I am getting there! Billy still prefers to go 20+ knts whenever possible ???? Who wants to remind him happy wife happy life ????

Is the Corsair 880 the PERFECT Trailer Sailer? // Foldable trimaran sailboat in Newport Harbor

We are on our way to Newport, RI with the new Corsair 880 sailing trimaran and give it a go setting up and launching by ourselves for the first time. There wasn't much wind in Newport but that didn't stop us from having an amazing fall day on the water and we were still skating along with the screecher out and our friend's Greg and Allison onboard!

NEEL 47 Trimaran. Guided Tour and our Review. 3 hulls are better?

We took a guided tour of the Neel 47 Trimaran at this year's Annapolis Sailboat Show. It, allegedly, sails faster than a traditional Catamaran but is 3 hulls better than 2? Is this a boat we would want to live on full time, as we sail the world? Watch the video to the end to find out what we like and possibly don't like about this Cat.

If you found the video informative our helpful, please like and share this video.

A Sailboat That Just Wants To Go FAST - A Contour 34 Trimaran

Corsair Trimaran Sailing in Michigan on Muskegon Lake 8/3/21

How can Winter Sailing on a Trimaran be this Perfect?

Winter is coming but we found some amazing days of sailing on Long Island after we trailered the Corsair 880 down from Newport, on the ferry, and launched at a local ramp. Long Island is where I (Billy) grew up and it was amazing to sail on my home waters with family in the cold weather with no one out. Conditions were actually really nice for winter and we were able to enjoy some amazing spinnaker sailing on the calm Great South Bay!
