Tricat - An owners’ gathering in Brittany

Over the first weekend in July, trimaran builder Tricat organized a friendly get-together of owners. The event was logically held at home, in southern Brittany, France, where the shipyard is based, just north of Vannes. Antoine Houdet, Tricat’s founder and CEO, told us a little more: “Around forty people sailed on the 12 trimarans that came. Every one of the brand’s models were represented, with the Tricat 6.90, our most recent model, predominating. [The yard has been building trimarans since 2002 -Ed.] For two days, we sailed a series of courses in the Gulf of Morbihan and the Bay of Quiberon, stopping each day for a pleasant lunch. We got to check out “the B side” of the Conleau peninsula during an atypical, though voluntary, beaching of the fleet, right in front of Vannes’ SRV Yacht Club, who welcomed us for dinner on the Saturday evening.”
