Sailor John Ward is selling his Tridarka Raider. This is a very interesting boat design, originally developed for the “chief” of Watertribe.
The Tridarka Raider was featured in the book More Small Trimarans.
John sent me the following info about this boat (below).
Update 09/05/16: – Boat is now sold! (Glad we could help John by posting it :-)
