Used Hobie Trifoiler Sailboats for Sale

The Hobie Trifoiler stands as a groundbreaking vessel in the history of sailing, often cited as one of the earliest, if not the earliest, production hydrofoil sailboats. Conceived by designer Greg Ketterman and later brought to market by the iconic Hobie Cat Company, this trimaran re-imagined the possibilities of speed and performance on water. Its primary purpose was to deliver an exhilarating, high-speed sailing experience by lifting its hulls out of the water on foils, effectively reducing drag and allowing it to achieve speeds far exceeding conventional sailboats. The Trifoiler epitomized Hobie's core philosophy of making sailing accessible, fun, and performance-oriented, a legacy established with their popular beach catamarans.
