New Ocean Fifty Arkema trimaran: a genuine ocean racing racer!
The construction of the Ocean Fifty Arkema started in September 2018, and launched in September 2020. This shipyard of almost two years gave birth to a trimaran with an innovative design, particularly powerful and ergonomic, for both crewed and single-handed offshore races.
2022: improvements and new design
“We laid the boat bare,” Quentin Vlamynck explains. “This enabled us to check all its structural components. In particular, we rectified a small weak point at the junction of the link arm. The roof was modified to make the living area better protected from the elements and more comfortable, though comfort remains quite a relative thing! Rather than sleeping on the floor of the deck, we fitted a small slightly raised bunk outside. This will really improve living conditions on board.”
The most visible change on the trimaran concerns its graphic design . In November 2021, the Arkema Group confirmed its positioning as an expert in innovative materials at the service of a sustainable world, with a new visual identity. “The boat looks very smart in its new colors, with warmer tones and a softer feel to it. I look forward to seeing the first visuals of the boat at sea!" Quentin continues.
More information
Season 2021: an initiatory first season
For this first season of the Pro Sailing Tour, the new Arkema and its crew led by Quentin Vlamynck finished 2nd in the general ranking . A very good result for the first season of the circuit.
Quentin also took away a great deal from the Transat Jacques Vabre, as the youngest skipper in the Ocean Fifty class. He has now completed his first crossing of the Atlantic in a multihull , running against great, highly professional skippers.
Christening of Arkema
Quentin Vlamynck's Ocean Fifty Arkema was christened in Bordeaux on Monday 27 September 2021, one year to the day after its launch , and just a few weeks before its first Transat Jacques Vabre – Normandie – Le Havre race.
In the presence of Arkema employees involved in the construction of this innovative trimaran, and with the support of the boat’s honorary patron Pauline Déroulède , French Wheelchair Tennis Champion, emotions were running high in the splendid Capital of Wine.
A new philosophy in boat design
Designed by marine architect Romaric Neyhousser, Arkema is the result of a new rationale, shared with Lalou and Quentin, which transpires in the boat’s design.
Thanks to feedback from the former Arkema 1 , Lalou Multi and his sponsor-partner Arkema have laid down a new framework. The first trimaran built by Lalou Multi was based on a short-handed crew at sea. This new boat Arkema has less typical features, is more versatile and more efficient for the crew as well as inshore. This has guided the choices regarding the platform, in particular for the “X” crossbeams (not parallel beams) used to optimize the ergonomics in crew sailing.
Versatility, the watchword for Arkema
Lalou Roucayrol sums up this versatility perfectly: “Our aim was to build a more versatile boat than the previous one, in other words just as effective in in-shore crew events as in solo ocean racing. We have put much thought into the masses and improved the aerodynamic brakes. It’s going to be a powerful boat!”
Romaric Neyhousser, the boat’s architect, details the work that has gone into aerodynamics to enhance this versatility : “The idea is to reduce the aerodynamic drag as much as possible, even more than on the other Multi 50. The objective is to profile all the shapes that produce drag, in particular for the crossbeams, but also to work on the sheet effect of the sails. The fairing adds weight, but we believe that the resulting gain will offset this additional weight.”
Skipper-focused ergonomics
Here too, there are many differences with the previous Arkema 1. The boat’s design makes it more versatile, but it must also enable the sailors to keep up the pace in all types of events , whether in crew sailing, solo sailing, in-shore or on the ocean. The cockpit offers greater protection in particular.
As Quentin Vlamynck, the skipper of Arkema , explains , “ It’s vital to keep up the pace more easily sailing as a pair or solo, and to be able to go fast over a sustained period of time, including in challenging conditions.”
Performance : The inside story
As in the past, this new Ocean Fifty is the result of intense technical collaboration between Arkema and Lalou Multi. With recyclable resins, new materials, 3D printing of technical parts, clean energy, many features are indeed driven by innovation, and others will remain flexible throughout the sporting life of Arkema .
Signed Incidence, clsely involved with the Arkema project since Pierre-Antoine Morvan, Match Racing European Champion and Technical Manager for Incidence sailmakers, will be the tactician for the Grand Prix. The gennakers, J2 and J3, are cable-less, therefore do not have any tension cable: the leading edge is thinner and the void better distributed. The fixture points are made of Elium ® /carbon composite rather than aluminium, with the added benefits of lower weight and recyclability.
2. Deckhouse / Cockpit
Completely recyclable and made entirely of composite based on the recycled Elium ® resin. Approximately 80 cm lower than on the other Ocean Fiftys, the cockpit allows for sheltered maneuvering. For superior visibility whatever the sea conditions, cockpit and deckhouse are fitted with ShieldUp ® Flex ® PMMA glazing, the world’s first flexible sheet recently developed. This material’s flexibility makes it easy to install without thermoforming over substantial contours. This ”acrylic glass” is 5 times more impact-resistant than traditional PMMA. It also has an anti-scratch and water-repellent coating. The result: a remarkable and durable optical quality, even in challenging conditions, as well as a weight reduction of the order of 50%!
Latest-generation lithium batteries using Arkema’s Kynar ® technology were selected. Developed by the young French company Powertech, they help increase energy storage capacity by 50%, with no increase in weight compared to Arkema 1 . Combined with a larger surface of photovoltaic panels installed on the front outrigger arm, the system delivers fully autonomous energy supply to on-board equipment, without emitting a single gram of CO 2 .
The floats feature raised sections, but their volume is smaller than on its forerunner since the foil gives the necessary support. The dihedral angle (between outrigger and horizontal plane) has been increased to prevent the windward float from dragging in the water in light winds.
5. Central hull
Validated by many digital simulations (CFD), this hull is wide at the bridge to increase the sheet effect on the front sails. Below the waterline, it is deep with V sections for less bumpy sailing. The clear forefoot allows for more efficient rotations. As with the floats and the outriggers, the structure and bulkheads were assembled by structural bonding using methacrylate products from the Arkema subsidiary Bostik.
The construction of Arkema
Lalou Roucayrol and Quentin Vlamynck heavily involved in the construction
Both Lalou Roucayrol and Quentin Vlamynck were naturally heavily involved in the construction of Arkema , the former being in charge of running the project and an expert in Arkema materials, and the latter as the skipper of the boat.
I know it’s vital to be as close as possible to the construction work and be able to incorporate my technical choices in consultation with Lalou, Nicolas Coudrais from the design office, and Romaric Neyhousser, the architect. The philosophy of Lalou Multi is precisely to keep the skipper involved in the strategic choices.

Arkema materials have pride of place
Already present on the previous Ocean Fifty and the Mini 6.50, the Group's materials have pride of place on the new Ocean Fifty Arkema .
The Elium ® thermoplastic resin , for example, has been used to manufacture a number of components, including the crossbeam mold that, recycled when construction was over. Other applications include an even greater use of the wide range of Bostik adhesives, the production of parts using 3D printing, and work on the batteries.
Bostik structural adhesives used on the Ocean Fifty Arkema make a major contribution in terms of lightweighting, toughness and durability.
“The work undertaken with the Elium ® resin has been extensive and complements developments in other markets such as wind power. And the construction of Arkema was an opportunity for us to demonstrate the recyclability of composites made from this thermoplastic resin. This latest trimaran is also a superb showcase for other products from our Group, including Bostik’s structural glues that make a major contribution in terms of lightweighting, toughness and durability. We had R&D teams dedicated to this construction project to identify materials already applicable and others potentially so in the longer term. A racing boat like this new trimaran is a tremendous driver of brand image, but above all it’s a full scale laboratory that enables us to show and test the performance of our materials in real-life sailing conditions. A “materials demonstrator” that can be transferred to other application sectors.” Gilles Galinier, Communication Vice President for the Arkema Group
New generation sails
Lalou Roucayrol has been testing equipment for sailmakers Incidence for years. The boat was fitted with a test sail – a Strong Luff gennaker – in the Grands Prix of the 2019 season and during the training sessions. The trials were clearly conclusive , as explains Pierre-Antoine Morvan, Head of R&D at Incidence Group: “It’s a sail without halyard, in DFi ® , with many novel features. The major asset of the Strong Luff, as its name suggests, is the performance of the luff, but also a significant improvement in overall performance. It’s lighter, more versatile and more dynamic.”
In order to extend the innovation of this new sail, Lalou Multi has decided to go ahead with manufacturing various fittings for these sails from the Elium ® resin developed by Arkema. César Dohy, Master Sailmaker at Incidence, explains: “To hold these sails, there are two highly specific fittings called lugs. These are triangular aluminum parts measuring about 10 cm² with head and tack that literally secure the sail. Made from the Elium ® resin, they are therefore lighter, with softer contours, and are now recyclable. Quentin and Lalou tested them in the Canary Islands, and the initial feedback was convincing.”
Arkema Sailing
As partners since 2013, Arkema and Lalou Multi decided in 2019 to give a new dimension to their collaboration, still anchored on the common values of innovation and a quest for performance.

The Multi50 class is ambitious for 2021
- 1 March 2021
With two new builds last year, Arkema 4 and Planet Warriors, the return to the circuit in the spring of the former Ciela Village, bought by Leyton, the Multi50 class will offer a line-up of six or seven trimarans this season . The official programme will be unveiled on 16th March with a new look to the race format, new partners and some new locations. Tip & Shaft looks at what is going on. The Multi50 did not do much racing in 2020. With the cancellation of the Transat CIC and the Quebec-Saint-Malo, the calendar was cut to two Grands Prix events (Brest and Saint Brieuc) and the Dhream Cup with three entrants, because of the Covid crisis. The skippers made the most of their boats to carry out PR operations.
Primonial (Sébastien Rogues) and GCA 1001 sourires (Gilles Lamiré) organised major tours, as did Solidaires en Peloton-Arsep: “ With six to eight guests and when the weather was favourable with four or five trips, you can organise some fantastic days and share your sport with a lot of people while ensuring everyone’s safety ,” explained Thibaut Vauchel-Camus, who toured all the way around France from Boulogne-sur-Mer to Monaco.
Relaunched ten days ago, the VPLP design which won the Dhream Cup and has clocked up 50,000 miles, will be fitted with a new mast in the spring .
Planet Warriors behind schedule
As for the yards, the big news is the launch of two new boats . At the age of 56 after working as an entrepreneur and racing all sorts of boats (Formula 40, Orma, Multi50, …) Fabrice Cahierc had a VPLP designed boat built at Persico. He hopes she will be lighter than Ciela Village and Solidaires en Peloton-Arsep.
“ We worked on the structure, the sides of the hull, the weave of cloth to limit the level of resin in the infusion,” explained the owner, who will race in the Transat Jacques Vabre with Thierry Duprey du Vorsent , his boat captain.
The project got behind schedule after her launch last August with the foil housing having to be rebuilt to ensure they were totally watertight. Planet Warriors , whose name comes from Fabrice Cahierc’s foundation, will be relaunched in Marseille on 4th March and delivered to the Atlantic, where she will make her racing debut.
As for Arkema 4 , which is due to head for the Canaries to train, she has remained in Médoc since her launch in mid-September. Lalou Roucayrol, who will assist Quentin Vlamynck on the Neyhousser design for the Transat Jacques Vabre, explains: “ We have however managed to do around forty days of sailing. These two months enabled us to identify some teething problems , which meant she was hard to control above thirty knots, because of the central rudder, the stock of which was too flexible .” A new appendage is being built.
Lalou Multi is looking for a buyer for the former Leyton
Lalou Multi also got back with his Noir Désir (ex Arkema 3) in the water after her charter to Leyton for the 2020 season. Still doing well, the winner of the Brest Grand in 2020, skippered by Arthur Le Vaillant, the Multi50 is now up for sale for 850,000 euros excluding tax or for charter (250,000 euros). In addition to that cost you need to factor in 80,000 euros for the insurance and practically as much for a set of new sails. Lalou Multi says they have had some serious contacts, which could mean a seventh competitor in the Transat Jacques Vabre.
Leyton , who used the boat for a year, decided in the end to acquire Ciela Village in late December at the cost of 1.5 million euros . They have given the helm to Sam Goodchild , who has replaced Arthur Le Vaillant until the 2022 Rhum. “ Looking ahead to the Transat Jacques Vabre and the Route du Rhum, she is a boat that is more suitable than Noir Désir, as better protected and more stable in heavy seas,” explained the British sailor.
Thierry Bouchard’s former VPLP designed boat will be relaunched in March. “It was important to do it fairly early on so we could get used to her,” added Sam Goodchild. She will have been through a two-month long refit. “ The boat had a tricky start and collided with a trawler in late 2017 ,” explained Aymeric Chappellier, who has replaced Thierry Braud as project manager. “ We completely dismantled her at the Multipôle yard in Saint-Philibert, carried out al the checks, reduced her weight and started working with Madintec on a new autopilot .”
Some new projects are set to join the circuit in 2022. While Drekan, recovered by Eric Defert after her capsize in the 2017 Transat Jacques Vabre, has left the stage and will be used for charter in the Bahamas, the former Prince de Bretagne has been sold by Gilles Lamiré. Eric Péron , backed by a group of investors, has bought the Irens-Cabaret designed boat launched in 2009, which won the 2014 Route du Rhum when skippered by Lionel Lemonchois.
Limited numbers?
“This year, I’ll be focusing on the Figaro season and the Transat Jacques Vabre in Class40 (with Jean Galfione). If at the same time, we find the budget, the boat will be updated at Mer Agitée, with a central daggerboard, three rudders and one-design foils ,” explained Eric Péron, whose main goal is the 2022 Route du Rhum .
With the same goal in mind, the construction of a new VPLP design using the moulds from Ciela Village is scheduled at CDK, even if, according to the assistant managing director of the yard, Yann Dollo, nothing has so far been signed: “There are a lot of estimates, lots of letters of intent. What is certain is that a Multi50 represents nine months of work. So to be ready for the Rhum sailing solo, a project needs to be up and running before the summer.”
If all these projects work out, there may be nine boats in the 2022 Rhum as opposed to six in 2018, which proves that the class is slowly but surely developing. This means that at the AGM in March, a rule of a limit to the number of boats may be proposed and voted on. “ Given the state of play, it is worth thinking about limiting numbers ourselves before someone else does it for us ,” confirmed Erwan Le Roux, the class president.
What would be the ideal limit that cannot be exceeded? “ We are thinking that ten to twelve boats is a good goal . The line-up would be big enough to be able to organise some great events. Having said that, we will need to find the right licence system in order not to prevent new skippers from turning up in the circuit ,” added the president, who is likely to continue in this post until 2022.
A championship 70% funded by private partners
Meanwhile, there will be six or seven boats in the circuit in 2021 . Over the past few years, this circuit has tried to grow with special events and not only inshore racing. “ Our model is the golden age of the Orma boats , and we can all remember the incredible 2013 Route des Princes ,” commented Gilles Lamiré.
2021 is likely to mark a turning point in this area with a championship starting in May with a new format : “ We will be announcing five key destinations on 16th March in the Atlantic and Mediterranean ,” stated Erwan Le Roux. “ We worked during the winter on this project in collaboration with the skippers and partners. We have the support of a new organiser, the Upswing Prod company and the circuit will be 70% funded by private partners and 30% by local public bodies. The idea is to sail in the heart of the cities, but also offshore .” The names of Brest, La Rochelle and Marseille have appeared as partner cities.

We take pride in our happy customers
Your team delivered on every mark. You’ve got an amazing broker in Mark Wattrus and I’m confident you will have continued success moving forward together. He was available 24/7 whenever I had questions. We had a great initial visit on the boat and his marketing plan and photos were superb
I bought a yacht that I had never seen. I did this because I trusted my broker Andrew Holland. It was not an easy job for Andrew, as I am an experienced boat builder and owner of previous yachts, but work in West Africa. Imagine how hard it was to communicate what I was looking for. Andrew came up with exactly what I wanted. He dealt with time delays, all my questions at odd hours, and was there for the survey. He reported honestly and professionally. After buying the yacht, I arrived at the boat on a Sunday night, after dark, after travelling from West Africa to the Caribbean, and found it was better than expected. He never pulled punches and made me aware of shortfalls. I expected to spend my one month leave working on the boat, but actually spent less than one week, and was able to spend 3 weeks sailing – wonderful bonus.
Thank you Andrew for putting up with all my questions, all my worries and all my crazy out of the time zone concerns – you were totally professional, but also I know that if and when we meet up, it will be like a friend finally meeting. You are always welcome on Aseka.
— Beverly Cory
Outstanding company with professional subject matter experts. If I were to buy or sell cruising sailboat, particularly a catamaran, Andrew would be my go to broker.
I have been sailing since I was a child and attended Massachusetts Maritime Academy. But when my wife and I began the process of purchasing an ocean cruising/racing catamaran, I realized that this is a world unto itself. Obviously, we needed to find someone knowledgeable to help us make an informed decision. More importantly, we needed someone honest and willing to put our interests before his or her own. I was lucky to work with Phil Berman at The Multihull Company. He repeatedly shunned the fast buck, choosing instead to work the long road to connect us with the “perfect boat”. I would be glad to recommend Phil and his company to anyone planning to purchase or sell a performance sailing machine.
— Eric Boutiette
Andrew Hodgdon was our broker when we bought our 2018 Lagoon 450F in Antigua in April 2922. He provided great service and was very attentive to our needs. We would highly recommend Andrew and the Multihull Company.

The Rapido 50 – The World’s Ultimate Folding Cruising Trimarans

Critically, the Rapido 60's DNA can be found throughout the Rapido 50. But where the Rapido 50 sharply differentiates herself is that she has the ability to fold the floats to slip into single berths at marinas.

Folding mechanism :
- High tech design by world-acclaimed multihull designers, Morrelli & Melvin
- Patented Design (concept by Paul Koch, Australia Patent Application No. 2019902014)

FAST AND POWERFUL
Trimarans are safe, powerful and fast as demonstrated by the fact that they consistently win races and hold the solo speed record for circumnavigating the world.
Safety at sea is the No. 1 priority and this thinking is reflected throughout the design and construction of the Rapido.
The Rapido has some truly amazing living spaces which provide more open, private and intimate areas than monohulls or catamarans.
stable and comfortable
Trimarans are comfortable on all points of sail.
The combination of safety, performance and comfort put the Rapido in a league of its own. The enormous trampoline nets add fun and excitement as you watch the blue water rush underneath you – or as you lounge on the nets while gently floating over a reef. You will be instantly hooked.

Dragonfly Trimarans are built in Denmark to extremely high standards by Quorning Boats. The current Dragonfly range extends from the trailerable 25 and 28 footers, up to the larger 32 and 40 foot models. All Dragonfly Trimarans employ their hallmark “swing wing” system for retracting the floats for docking or in the case of the 25 and 28 for easy trailering. One feature of this system is that the floats remain in the vertical orientation, which is an advantage when keeping the boat in a slip because it eliminates the issue of fouling of the outside surfaces of the floats. Another hallmark of Dragonfly trimarans is their attention to detail in the interior design and finish, creating a beautiful comfortable place to spend time inside the boat. If you are looking for a Dragonfly Trimaran for sale, Windcraft Multihulls is a US dealer located in the Southeastern United States. Contact us for more information.

About Dick Newick

Dick Newick
"People sail for fun and no one has yet convinced me that it's more fun to go slow than it is to go fast."
All Designs
Moxie in the Azores
"For this, his third attempt at the OSTAR, Weld had Dick Newick design him the trimaran Moxie. In design, construction and in every piece of equipment Moxie was built to win. Phil Weld knew what it took to race across the Atlantic - the boat and the man were made for each other."
"By breaking the barriers of both performance and acceptance, Dick Newick can be called the Chuck Yeager of multihulls" -- Jim Brown, Wooden Boat magazine, May 2008
