FARRIER MARINE
Should your model have float storage, avoid heavy
loads in the floats. These should only be used for light
bulky items such as sails, fenders etc. Heavy weight in
the ends of any boat, be it the bow, stern, or floats, can
adversely affect the general motion.
To maintain a light boat, and that sparkling edge of
performance, it is highly recommended that you go
through everything on board several times a year, and
take off any items that do not get used. This prevents the
gradual buildup of unnecessary weight.
SAFETY COMPARTMENT
Before sailing, it is important that the Safety Compart-
ment be loaded with the appropriate safety gear. This
compartment is accessible from top or bottom and should
have been built in as per the plans.
Its purpose is to keep important safety equipment that
should be available to the crew in any emergency situa-
tion, especially a capsize. The equipment stored here
should include flares, a handheld VHF radio, EPIRB
(offshore), extra line, spare tools, cutting implements etc.
in watertight bags
(this is not a watertight compart-
ment).
WARNING:
No multihull should venture offshore
without safety gear in such a compartment that
must be accessible from under the craft
OUTBOARD MOTOR
The recommended motor size is given in the specifi-
cations in your original literature and later in this Manual.
This is more than adequate for most circumstances.
A long shaft motor is the minimum required, and the
extra long 25" shaft motors are the best.
A remote
control can also help make operation very easy with aft
cabin models. With weight being important, try to choose
the lightest possible outboard.
There are a number of specialist ‘Sail Boat’ motors
now available and some of these are designed for heavy,
hard to push, displacement boats, and their propellers
are effectively ’geared down’ to give high thrust at low
speeds. However, Farrier trimarans have a very easily
driven hull and may not need such a propeller. The result
can be the same as always driving your car in low gear.
You will have plenty of thrust, but speed is low, and
economy can be poor. These motors do have advan-
tages, and if used, you may need to experiment with
different propellers to get the best and most efficient
performance.
Refer to the engine manual for details of operation,
maintenance and winter storage. Always be sure you
have enough fuel for your planned trip.
The motor can be used while the floats are extended
or folded and should always be tilted up when sailing.

trailering or removed altogether for long distance trips. Note separate light bar high up and well clear of water
