Shuttleworth 39' offshore racing trimaran launches

Andrew has launched his Shuttleworth 39' racing trimaran in the UK.  You can read more on the design at the Shuttleworth designs website.  The team managed to get the boat to it's target weight which is no mean feat for a racing trimaran design.  The boat has a reasonable interior for a racing trimaran.  Future plans are to race in the Round Britain and Ireland yacht race and extensive shakedown to get the boat optimally tuned.
