Description

2004 Magnum 21 Trimaran "first tri" for sale with Trailer, Outboard, Inflatable Dinghy and other bits & pieces.
21 foot long. 16 foot wide when rigged. <1 foot draft with centreboard up.
Popular in France, these boats rarely come up for sale in the UK.

This is an almost perfect day sailer. 30 minutes to rig and launch (with a bit of practice), Main, jib, gennaker and asymmetric spinnaker. 6 to 11 knots is easy under sail. We’ve maxed out at 16 knots, but others have taken them to 25 knots!
Despite the speed potential, the boat is very easy to sail, and you’d have to be doing something very wrong to cause a capsize. We’ve never come close. The boat has a huge amount of storage under the bow, and some additional storage in the stern.
The boat is equally capable pottering up the river with a young family as it is in a force 7 with wind over tide conditions in the Solent with a couple of brave sailors (the main has 2 reefs)..

Our favourite place to launch is Bucklers Hard on the Beaulieu River, heading to Yarmouth, Cowes, the Hamble or Calshot for lunch...Or we'll launch at Baiters in Poole, anchoring on the south side of Browsea Island and go ashore for a cream tea!

The gennaker is particularly versatile, great upwind at lower wind speeds and very powerful on a beam reach or lower.
The boat is in very good condition for it’s age, albeit with superficial scratches / marks to the gelcoat, particularly on the amas (floats).
The main and jib are in fair condition. If we were keeping the boat, we’d be replacing them in the next year or so. The Gennaker is in good condition, and the spinnaker is very good as it’s not used much.
Note that the asking price has taken the condition of the sails into account.
