Weta Trimaran was awarded Boat of the Year by Sailing World magazine. There are two distinct builds of the Weta Trimaran, the 'original build' and the '2015 Weta' which was created from a new mold and included (mostly internal) hull revisions.

From 2006 to 2014 the 'original build' was manufactured in China for Weta Marine and sailed internationally with 1000 boats sold to date
