Trimaran Norman Cross 42 »MINDELO« for sale by owners for 85’000 USD, Duty and GST paid, located in Brisbane.Mindelo is an extremely well-built ketch rigged Norman Cross MK2 Trimaran (single aft cabin design) with three double berths in total. He is equipped for off-grid liveaboard, with 550W of solar and a watermaker.We lived full time on board for the last two years and sailed more than 15’000nm (California-Panama-Australia) in which Mindelo proved its safety and performance in various conditions, hosting up to six people in total for several weeks and on one occasion 20 people for a day-trip.Mindelo can be sailed single-handed easily and is a fast cruising boat, but not a high performance trimaran. The current owners usually sail with a cruising speed between 6 to 8 knots and a top speed of 15 knots. The performance in light wind is very good, reaching 3.5 knots in 5 knots of true wind. A fin keel keeps the boat on track and results in minimal drift tacking against wind.For mor videos and details see YouTube Channel “ Exploratio Mundi”For full description and inventory see boatsonline.com.au or message me directly.
