La Vagabonde is a Rapido 60 Trimaran with a carbon foam sandwich hull and carbon mast. The 60FT Rapido costs 1.8 million USD, built for performance they can reach up to 25 knots or 46 KM/H.
@@tiniselles I would appreciate it if you would calm down and try to be civil. You are not an animal. Act like the human you are supposed to be. You are frightening people.
Yeah Idk. 1.8m for a 4 berth boat is an utter rip off. Don't even try mentioning the amas. You can use these for sleeping if you're doing like coastal daysailing but as soon as you do passages your guest are going to be wishing they never met you. Don't get me wrong I love the idea of this boat. But I can't comprehend how anybody would pay basically 2m for a boat which can only host two other people besides me and my wife - actually it can actually host NOBODY after my wife and I got kids. And I do NOT like ego sailing. I want social sailing with friends and family. So a 4 berth boat for 2m is absolutely bonkers.
@@angela1984a Yeah they're called dinette. And dinettes were never proper berths. More like kids dogs beds. Sure this is a BIT bigger than classic dinettes but still just for one person. And dinettes/saloon couch berths are no selling point because they are for emergencies sleep overs and not for 100% live aboard sleeping. Everybody knows that when your blue water cruising that there'll be many late evenings/nights with fella sailors or whatever rendering the "berth" unavailable for that person who maybe is exhausted from a day of sailing and just wants to hit the pillow to go rest. But he/she can't because there is no berth left. Or when I'm entering the saloon for a coffee in the morning and now I'm unfortunately waking up the saloon person who is left with no choice but having to go to sleep as the last one while also needing to wake up as the first if he doesn't want to get waked up. Yeah, that's a non-starter. But yeah. It's just no boat for family and friends. It's just for one family(parents+2 kids) who maybe get visitors for day/costal trips from time to time. At least if you got family this boat isn't build for you if you want to share this experience with inviting friends or some of the rest of the family(siblings, parents...).
@@angela1984a A good old Mumby Cyber 48 is way better choice if you want to share this unique experience with more than just 2(till I got kids then 0) other people. Yeah 2 is a really hard sell for that "social style" of sailing I'm going for. You can get this build for 300-500k in the Philippines while offering up to 8 or 10 berths PLUS the dinette while offering like 75-90% of the speed potential of a rapido. Ohh and you are way safer. IDK this whole ripping carbon thing Riley and Elayna experienced and what I've seen with Parlay Revival really made me reconsider ever buying a composite yacht. Mumby and DeVilliers are quite the healthy combination of performance, liveability, social/sleeping capabilities and safety(aluminium is the safest material in lightning storms).
And I want to reframe. Utter ripoff if social sailing with more than 2 long term guests is a priority point. Surely always depends on ones priorities and plans.
I don't think that one is for sale, maybe one of the ~3(?) others. And I can't comment on the price of a pre-owned. Two of them do have a different kind of coach roof though. I think a new one from Rapido like the one Riley and Elayna from La Vagabonde have would cost a little more than 2 million due to the ~recent price increases...
And if you go to Rapido's website you can see that these cracks have been fixed a long time ago. At latest report the folks aboard LaVaga was on their way towards Japan. They've probably arrived by now. Issues like this are not unique for Rapido. Other builders of performance cruising multihulls have had issues as well. As have builders of monohulls.
I'm only a layman on these things, so I can't comment on whether that allegation is correct or not, but *why* would they attempt 25 knots in heavy seas? It's a cruising boat and they have two little children onboard(!)...
@@angela1984a claro, entonces que sentido tiene ese barco "rapido" para la navegación de crucero oceánico en familia ? la velocidad no va de la mano con un verdadero barco a vela de aguas azules..
@@juanzz412 Why doesn't speed go hand in hand with a 'true blue water boat'? Aren't Riley and Elayna 'blue water sailors'? This boat can do very good speeds in light wind conditions - like true windspeed kind of speeds. That means ~10 knots in flat or nearly flat seas. There's not that many - if any - 'true blue water boats' that can do that... According to Riley - speed is also a safety factor, since it opens up a lot of options if they need to avoid really bad weather...
@@angela1984a si al tal Riley lo agarra una condicion realmente mala le deseo mucha suerte y tendra que rezar mucho , ya vio como se le arranco el stay de proa cuando el barco era nuevo...??
I think it will do more than 25 knots in optimal conditions.
Fantastic
Great bit of kit.❤👍👍🙏🇬🇧🇬🇧
It would have been nice and fair imo that you made a referral to Sailing La Vagabonde, a huge sailing TH-cam channel.
Well the name of the vessel kinda does it already
@@youtubecomments5951 that’s a sh**ty reaction. You are trying to build a YT channel over the success of others. Or are you just jealous?
@@tiniselles uhh. This isn’t my channel

It's a 6 berth boat. The table in the saloon lowers and becomes a bed that easily sleeps two people.

Busuanga!
Is the ship for sale for 1.8 million?
will depend on your options, you can contact Rapido Trimarans rapidotrimarans.com/rapido-60

If you go to Vagabondes latest video at this date it is starting to fall apart. Structural cracks. Could well turn into a total nightmare.
