The Aquarius RC27 stands as a testament to the highperformance catamaran revolution of the 1980s and 1990s, representing a bridge between traditional beach catamarans and modern offshore racing multihulls. Designed by the late Bill Roberts and produced by Aquarius Sail Inc., the RC27 was engineered with a singular focus: maximizing speed through hydrodynamic efficiency and a massive powertoweight ratio. Unlike the narrower, highproduction catamarans of its era, the RC27 features a wide 12foot beam, demanding a sophisticated level of crew coordination and often a specialized "tilttrailer" for road transport. According to the Aquarius Sail official technical specifications, the vessel utilizes a highly efficient hull shape that minimizes wyeresistance and maximizes lift, a hallmark of the Roberts design philosophy.
