Just out here on vacation and drove past this thing... Never seen anything like it.
Folding trimaran.
I saw one of these for the first time two weeks ago. So cool!

Ya, pretty wild setup for sure...
Very cool.
I wonder what the maintenance is like on one of these.
Delayed reply :). But I'd think a lot. I also imagine putting it on the trailer would be difficult!
I remember seeing the concept for this in about 1998 or so. I think they would be quite fast, and easy to get on/off a trailer. But I've never had the chance to try one.
found it on Yachtworld... https://www.yachtworld.com/yacht/2008-telstar-28-8799496/
Not cheap, not much inside space... Guessing the price reflects it's rarity.
I always thought these things were super weird/interesting
