The flagship of the Danish shipyard Quorning trimaran Dragonfly 40 is presented in Düsseldorf in 2020.
Exterior and Interior Design
Dragonfly 40 is not just a scaled 32 model, but a completely new project. Designed by Jens Quorning and Steen Olsen, the trimaran looks like a single hull. The clean deck, extensive glazing, spacious cockpit is divided into control and relaxation areas with an optional bathing platform. The helmsman has everything at his disposal: schools and halyards, three electric winches at each post. Sails, kayaks and other useful features are stored in the side hulls. The salon is finished with high quality materials in Scandinavian style. There is a full-fledged galley, dining area and toilet with shower. The height of the ceiling is impressive – 1.95m!
The amenities on board
Dragonfly 40 has cabins in the bow and stern, the latter called the master cabin, though without windows. Additional berths can be arranged in the saloon by adding up the dining table. According to the shipyard, up to 10 people can rest in the salon and cockpit at the same time, but it seems to be tight.
Features
Dragonfly 40 is available in two versions: Touring and Ultimate. The difference is in the area of the sails. The keel and rudder pen are elevating for safe drainage. Trimaran is full of engineering wonders, everything is thoughtful and good. Hence the considerable weight.
