The Extreme 40 was created with two things in mind, action and adrenline! The gap was seen in the Grand Prix sailing market for a fast, inshore catamaran, which would be not only exciting to watch but cost effective to run.

The history of the Extreme 40 may be short, but full of spectacle. Shortly after the first built 40ft carbon fibre catamaran hit the water in 2005, Extreme 40’s debuted in the international racing scene during several stop overs at the 2005/2006 Volvo Ocean Race, in an in-port racing format, called the Grand Prix Racing Series.

This year boat #20 has been launched and is racing in the Extreme Sailing Series 2011 by the formidable Alinghi Sailing Team. Interest in the class is at an all-time high right now, so act fast to own the most awesome boat at your local club, or join the series in 2012. New boats and second hand boats are available.
