MOC: Small trimaran

Recommended Posts

I designed an old trimaran a couple of weeks ago to accompany my frigate. Since the comments for it mainly said: nice but would be a better ship for the town-section, I took the time to rebuild it to make it look more to my liking. Now I'd like to present my first MOC for town since I was a child:

This small trimaran is not so much for regattas but more for recreational activities. I did not smoothen the amas as I haven't got enough blue studless bricks. Additionally I have to say that there are neither rigging nor sails. As it is only a side-project I might decide to work a bit more on it but for now I consider it to be complete.

Comments and criticism appreciated!

Very nice trimaran Horry! I sailed one a few years

ago they are very shifty. The supports on the edge are really cool but maybe make

them a little thicker. The platform is also great with the figs and the steering system.

And one last idea, what about a interior? I know this is a side project but it could be a bit better.

Very fantastic build! :classic:

Thank you all very much! A interior would be difficult and I left it out on purpose as those vessels are more for short trips. But now that you mentioned it I will try to do one anyway. :sweet:

Thanks for all the kind comments! I've proven two things now. The first thing is: bricks CAN float - and rather nicely. The second one: There's room for a small cabin. I added a sliding hatch to access it. Inside, there's room to store stuff and a little light.
