The Multi 23 is a radical daysailing sport trimaran designed by the legendary French naval architecture firm VPLP Design, the masterminds behind recordbreaking offshore giants like Banque Populaire V and the America’s Cup champion USA17. First launched in 2009 and manufactured by Torpen International Boats in Qingdao, China, the Multi 23 was conceived as a miniature version of the famous Orma 60 racing class. VPLP’s objective was to distill the spinetingling performance of a grandprix oceanracing multihull into an affordable, trailerable package that could be managed by a small crew or even sailed singlehanded. Visually and structurally, the model stands far apart from the heavy, cabincompromised cruising trimarans of its era. Rather than attempting to balance speed with family weekend accommodations, the Multi 23 features a completely open deck, a spartan cockpit, and a raw, vacuuminfused composite finish.
