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. In April 2017, Weta announced the availability of a foam-core Weta which was 12 kg lighter than the Standard boat which is still available. The foam core boat is right on the minimum weight in the class rules. From 2006 to 2014 the 'original build' was manufactured in China for Weta Marine and sailed internationally with 1000 boats sold to date
Pontoon effect side than the center of buoyancy can go. At this point, the righting force will disappear, replaced by a turning moment in the opposite direction. This can capsize the vessel at the point at which one pontoon is completely submerged. When using twin lateral pontoons, each pontoon should have enough buoyancy to bear the load of the entire vessel on its own. If the vessel is so heavy that either pontoon is mostly submerged when no lateral force is applied, it will be vulnerable to the pontoon effect. If sufficient lateral force arises (such as wind or shifting load), the
