Experience the Great Barrier Reef like few others can. "RayChar" (aka RaceYa) is a high-performance 36ft cruising trimaran that combines the blistering pace of a multihull with a tiny 70cm draft.
Glide over coral gardens, navigate the Sandy Straits, or anchor right on the beach at Tangalooma--places where monohulls simply cannot go.
Having undergone an extensive 2-year reconstruction and renovation, this vessel is "near-complete" with many brand new components, primed for tropical adventure. The heavy lifting is done; she is clean, updated, and ready for your final personal touches.
? THE TRIPLE ADVANTAGE
Access All Areas (70cm Draft): Sneak into shallow Whitsunday inlets or park on the sand. You don't need a dinghy when you can anchor in the shallows.
Rock-Solid Stability (9m Beam): Enjoy "level sailing" with no heeling. Perfect for partners or kids prone to seasickness--enjoy sunsets without the spill on a flat, stable walking surface.
Outrun the Storms: Generally faster than monohulls and many cruising cats, RayChar maintains speed in light winds and covers long distances quickly.
? LIVING SPACE & TROPICAL COMFORT
Step into a light-filled interior designed for maximum ventilation and full standing headroom throughout the saloon, galley, and cockpit.
Accommodations: Double berth plus two single beds--ideal for family cruising.
Amenities: Electric toilet in forward cabin, cockpit shower, and a folding dining table.
Ventilation: Bimini-covered cockpit with removable clear-view screens and 2 x 12V internal fans.
Deck Acreage: Marine-grade heavy tramp mats and forehead nets provide a massive footprint for entertaining or sleeping under the stars.
