A trimaran (or double-outrigger) is a multihull boat that comprises a main hull and two smaller outrigger hulls (or "floats") which are attached to the main hull with lateral beams.
The U.S. trimaran USS Independence USS Freedom on sea trials in February 2013 before her first deployment. A littoral combat ship (LCS) is either of two classes of relatively small surface vessels designed for near-shore operations by the United States Navy.
(The word "trimaran" was coined by Viktor Tchetchet, a Ukrainian emigrant to the US who tested his boats on Long Island sound in the late 1940s.)

Farrier wrote, "While it is nice to know that the F-27 is seaworthy enough to cross oceans, it is a little small for this, and ocean crossing is not a recommended purpose." [ 1 ] Two F-27s sailed in the 1993 Miami - Key Largo race, averaging 18.2 kn (33.7 km/h) and 17.9 kn (33.2 km/h) over the 43 mi (69 km) race course.
The sail plan of the Searunner 31 typically includes a main sail, jib, and sometimes a spinnaker. The trimaran configuration allows for efficient sailing in a wide range of wind conditions, with the ability to achieve higher speeds than monohull designs. One of the notable characteristics of the Searunner 31 is its folding mechanism.
Constant Camber 26 is a 26 ft (7.9 m) cruising sloop trimaran sailboat designed in the 1970s by John Marples featuring berths for two adults and two children. [1] [2] The constant camber hull is constructed using a single master template to produce each panel, resulting in a design with unchanging curvature, imparting extraordinary strength similar to an eggshell.
