A restored Farrier F-25C trimaran returns to the water after 24 years of storage following an 11-month refit.Watch The project included rebuilding the trailer with a 2x12 support board, installing new lights and fenders, and modifying the chain plates to allow the floats to fold without adjusting the cap shrouds.1:11 Initial sea trials occurred on the Petaluma River and in Marina Bay, Richmond, where the boat handled gusts into the upper 20-knot range under a single-reefed main and small jib.2:20 The synthetic rigging performed well, though the owner plans to replace the current 6-to-1 mainsheet system with 8-to-1 blocks.9:17 The interior remains a bare carbon-fiber shell with no electrical system.8:08 To improve trailering, the owner fabricated a custom mast-support tower using two-part windsurfer masts, G10 tubing, and unidirectional carbon-fiber lashings bonded to the aft deck.10:46 The boat demonstrated responsive steering and successful folding mechanics during its first outings.9:54
