Craig Loomes Design

It may look like a stealth fighter but this sleek beauty is actually a trimaran. This 23 meter Wavepiercer Trimaran is being built as a  private motor yacht in the Indian Ocean surrounding the island of Mauritius. They yacht is a two deck wavepiercer trimaran with a large external cockpit, an adjacent galley and dinette and a bridge area capable of seating a pilot and seven passengers in aircraft style 'one plus one' seating arrangement.  It will sleep eight in three double cabins plus a twin bunk arrangement. The boat is designed to travel fast, zipping along the 250 nautical miles between the islands of Mauritius and Saint Brandon and returning without refuelling.  The designs of the Craig Loomes Design Group are known as wavepiercers because they are meant to go through the waves rather than riding the over them. The company does custom trimarans and catamarans including designing the boat for the Earthrace, an ambitious plan to circumnavigate the globe in a boat using only renewable fuel sources. Earthrace is currently actively seeking donors to help them get their trimaran into the water.
