VIRUSPLUS 16

The ultimate family boat. Enjoy the exhilaration of sailing trimarans in this innovative 16ft multihull boat. Explore coastline and islands secure in the knowledge that it is safe for your family and friends to share your adventures. Not enough wind today? Use your engine to pootle up river. Or turn the boat into a rowing catamaran and get some exercise. This is a boat for all occasions.

SEVERAL BOATS IN ONE

So you want a fast and exhilarating dinghy to sail but you don't want to make excessive use of your wet suit! You would like a boat that is stable enough to be safe for those dear to you to share your enjoyment of sailing and yet fast enough to be fun. Or maybe you face a different problem. Perhaps one of you wants to row while the other wants to sail. Then again you might want to go sailing on windy days and rowing on calm days. Before the VirusPlus it was not possible to have a boat that did all these things well. But now you can buy one craft that will do all these things brilliantly because it is several boats in one package. You can choose the mode you wish to use and rig it accordingly.

ADAPTABLE AND VERSATILE

The Virus Plus can be changed from one boat form to another easily. Each form has different characteristics so you can adapt it to the weather, the occasion or just your mood.

VirusPlus Trimarans - are fast yet safe Trimarans have a central dory hull with two outer floats that act like a child's bike's stabiliser wheels.
Proa sailing dinghies - thrilling and challenging Dory hull with just one weighted, stabilising, outrigged float.
Proa with outboard motor - ideal multihull for fishing or ferrying As above but without the mast & sails and with an outboard motor (that can be fitted to any of the multi hull variants whether you have a sail up or not).
Dory - row or scull The traditional flat bottomed craft used for fishing for cod in Newfoundland.
Kataram - rowing catamaran Put the two floats together and combine them with the unique VIRUS sliding rigger mechanism to create the KATARAM, the quick yet stable rowing catamaran.

MULTIHULL

This ultimate family craft is all things to all people. Reliable, quick and fun, varied and exciting, thrilling and reassuring, all at the same time.
