What distinguishes the model

  • The light foam-core construction with solid laminate below the waterline makes the catamaran nimble and facilitates repairs in remote cruising grounds.
  • With good light-wind performance, the Rapier 400 sails briskly even in a weak trade wind and remains easy for a couple to handle.
  • Full standing headroom even for tall people and a clear layout make the boat a comfortable home for two people.
