The Rapier 400, designed by Darren Newton of Dazcat Design and built by Broadblue Catamarans, represents a radical departure from the traditional, heavy-displacement cruising catamarans typically associated with the Prout-influenced Broadblue lineage. Launched in 2011, this model was engineered to satisfy the "performance-cruiser" niche, utilizing advanced composite construction and a unique "inside-out" helm configuration that challenges conventional deck layouts. Unlike the more conservative Broadblue 385, the Rapier 400 emphasizes weight saving, windward ability, and high-average passage speeds, making it a favorite for experienced multihull sailors who prioritize velocity without sacrificing the essential safety of a blue-water platform.
