About the RAPIDO 60
Displacement above is "light." Max load displacement is 11,000 kg / 24,250 lbs.
The Rapido 60 is a high-performance trimaran designed by Morrelli & Melvin and built by Rapido Trimarans in Hong Kong, with production records indicating builds starting in 2015. As a large, lightweight multihull, it offers exceptional speed and comfort but requires vigilant maintenance of its complex composite structures and mechanical systems.
- Best for:
- This boat is ideal for experienced multihull sailors seeking high-speed coastal cruising and short offshore passages, particularly those who value performance and are prepared for active maintenance of composite hulls and rigging.
- Bluewater capability:
- While the Rapido 60 possesses the hull form and stability for offshore passages, its low comfort ratio and critical vulnerability to rudder and mast step failures demand rigorous pre-voyage inspections and conservative routing away from extreme weather.
- Comparables:
- Comparable vessels include the Lagoon 620 and Fountaine-Pajot Astrea 62, which share similar beam and interior volume, though the Rapido 60 distinguishes itself with a significantly lower displacement and higher sail area-to-displacement ratio for superior speed.
