After two years of Covid-induced boat show cancellations, Multihull Solutions is set for a show-stopping display at the 2022 Sanctuary Cove International Boat Show with three exclusive Asia Pacific launches.

The companies will be premiering the remarkable NEEL 43 trimaran, Fountaine Pajot’s Isla 40 sailing catamaran.

There has already been a steady stream of appointments booked to inspect these models at the show with cruising enthusiasts looking forward to the chance to finally explore the extensive range on offer at this leading marine event.

The NEEL 43 is particularly in demand, and the model on display at the show is the first to arrive in Australia and available for immediate sale.

NEEL Trimarans has surpassed itself with the NEEL 43, an impressive achievement on the back of its earlier models, including the NEEL 47, 51 and 65, which set new industry standards for performance and accrued numerous industry awards and won multiple ARC Trans-Atlantic races.

NEEL Trimarans has launched 13 of the new models to date and has at least 20 on forward order, making the NEEL 43 a contender for one of the shipyard’s most successful releases in its history.

The tri has a huge range of features packed into its compact design, which breaks the mould in traditional layouts by incorporating a loft-style interior, innovative use of space and sleek, contemporary styling. Combined with a robust construction that utilises eco-sustainable products and processes, the NEEL 43 delivers blistering speeds yet is still surprisingly stable and comfortable in even the most challenging conditions.

There is also intense interest in Fountaine Pajot’s Isla 40 sailing catamaran, which sets a new reference for multihulls in the 40-foot range. Being larger than its predecessor, the Lucia 40, and having a class-leading sail-to-weight ratio of 10.3, the 12m catamaran features reversed bows and an innovative saloon where the navigation wall is accessible from the entrance creating additional space in the saloon for a relaxing day bed and added storage.

Her impressive performance is complemented by optimal liveability with the option of three or four double cabins plus the possibility of a crew cabin if required.
