Why The Adventure 600?
The Adventure 600 is a new concept in self build, trailerable trimarans! Designed from the outset with portability, ease of use and fun in mind, the Adventure 600 can also be converted into a hydrofoiling speed demon, enabling you to cover large distances, quickly and safely.

About the Adventure 600
The Adventure 600 is 6m long and can be configured either as a standard trimaran or easily converted into a hydrofoiling, fast sport boat.
It is easily trailerable by most normal cars so you can have your adventure wherever you want it to!
Skippy is properly home!
We drive the trailer round to our shared rear drive entrance, drop off the newly detachable front of the trailer and drag it round to the second private entrance. We turn him around, put the tongue back on and reverse him onto the drive! Success! We can see the side...
It’s coming home! It’s coming home! Skippy’s coming home! (etc)
Skippy is indeed home! Albeit next door overnight! There will be European championship football in July when I rather doubt anything "will come home" unfortunately.... Anyway, Skippy is on the drive, we've moved the mast blanks round to my drive and double checking we...
Test fitting the Tohatsu outboard
So, we have a 3.5hp Tohatsu 4 stroke which we will look to use for launch and retrieval. The prevailing wind is South Westerly so across the launch ramp and with no pontoon available, we will need to drop the boat in the water and then pull it off to the side of the...
(Still Not) Storing the boat at Lymington Town Sailing Club
We were always going to do the initial testing down at Calshot anyway as the ramp there is much bigger but now we have a parking space confirmed there, I decide to let LTSC know that we won't be needing the space now - Pork Chop (the Spitfire) has been collected and...
Let the Adventures begin!
Super excited - Skippy was definitely here in the UK ready to be collected, so I headed over to Peters and May to start picking things up. We needed a couple of trips to make sure everything is ok, properly secured and safe to trailer so initially I did two quick...
(Not) Storing the boat at Lymington Town Sailing Club
The intention from the start has been to store and sail the boat out of Lymington Town Sailing Club which we have been members of for some years. Since contacting them in December 2020 about swapping our Spitfire Catamaran out to use the space for Skippy, it has been...
Collection date confirmed!
After more delays, it appears that Skippy will finally arrive in the Port of London on Monday 11th April and then hit the road to arrive at Peters and May Eastleigh location that afternoon. We're planning to collect him in a couple of trips on the 12th and 13th as...
Container lost?
Bugger - just been updated that the Evelyn Maersk ship with the container with Skippy onboard is currently in the Port of Felixstowe BUT our container is either not on there or is just not being unloaded! WTF!?!?!?!? It is now leaving Felixstowe tomorrow morning to go...
Ever Given container ship blocks the Suez Canal!

South Coast Adventure Race
We're great fans of the small boat Raid races like the Everglades Challenge and the Texas 200, but there is not really much available in the UK for enthusiasts to challenge themselves and their equipment. We're interested in gauging interest in something similar based...
