Sailing Trimaran Design
These old Catamaran hulls will be converted into two Trimaran sailboats. The plan is to have Expandacraft 20 foot outriggers with a folding arm which will allow the two boats to go on one trailer. These boats will be part of my rental business and the design should be easy to replicate for those of you who tinker with boats.

Expandacraft Outrigger Kit on a Hobie 14 Pro Angler (Hobie PA)
In this YouTube video, we show a client-installed a one sided outrigger kit on his Hobie Pro Angler (Hobie PA) kayak. Why put an outrigger and motor on a Hobie PA kayak with peddles you ask? Well, he wants to take his wife out too and doesn’t want to flip the Hobie PA kayak over and lose thousands of dollars of gear. Some people add an Expandacraft outrigger kit to…
