Design

THE TRIAK IS CO-DESIGNED BY MORRELLI & MELVIN DESIGN & ENGINEERING AND SAILS LIKE A BIG BOAT WITH UNRIVALED EASE OF USE.

With a design team that is currently working on the most advanced sailing crafts in the world for the 2013 America's Cup, the TRIAK delivers subtle sophistication and big-boat performance in a craft that is easy to use and pure fun to enjoy.

Triak's paddling and sailing versatility is elegantly balanced by the design of the boat's hull, wing, floats and sailing rig. Details such as the aft angle of the mast and daggerboard deliver exceptional maneuverability and performance. Wave piercing bows slice effortlessly through the water. With 85 lbs. of buoyancy, the floats make the TRIAK stable and safe.

Built using infused fiberglass with a honeycomb core and layers of reinforcements, TRIAK is built expedition tough for decades of enjoyment.
