DRAGONFLY 25

WEEKEND CRUISING & SPORTY RACER 

Performance sailing trimaran at it’s finest

The new Dragonfly 25 is a high-performance trailer-sailer, for sport and racing sailors looking for an exhilarating lightweight trimaran with comfortable accommodation … and is ideal for weekend cruising with family and friends.

This exceptional trimaran is available in two versions – a touring version and the more powerful and dynamic Sport version.

The 25 has a purpose-built roll-on roll-off trailer for easy launching and recovery.

She weighs 1,050kg and, with her minimal wetted area, it’s a recipe for speed.

Her impressive swing wings are delicate but easy to operate.

DRAGONFLY 25 KEY FEATURES

INTERIOR

The Dragonfly 25 has an interior plan that is simple and functional. Ahead of the main bulkhead is a V-berth with the Porta Potti underneath it. The head can be closed off from the main cabin with a rolling screen.

Interior space has been maximised by offsetting the centreboard and crafting special furniture modules, that can be quickly removed for racing.

A cockpit tent can also be pitched to effectively double the available sheltered living space, and the versatile saloon table can be quickly set up out in the cockpit.

The cabin has bench seats that are almost seven feet long and there is plenty of headroom above the seats for a standard issue adult. Aft by the companionway there are two modules that offer counter space, a sink and an Origo alcohol one-burner stove.

EXTERIOR

The Dragonfly 25 Touring comes as standard with a 10.5m single-spreader rotating alloy mast, furling self-tacking jib for ease of single-handing and a fully-battened mainsail with mainsheet traveller in the cockpit.

The Sport version has a carbon mast with a taller carbon rig, a larger sail area and a rudder on each float. Single rudder also available. Both Dragonflies have the same size hulls, with the mast, rig and sails size differing.

The Dragonfly comes with the Swing Wing system as standard, giving the 25 enough stability to moor in the folded position in a marina berth.

Using this revolutionary system, the trimaran can be folded to reduce the beam by more than 50% in less than one minute per side, using no tools and operating only from the cockpit.

This system is the absolute fastest and easiest folding system on the market.

KEY FEATURES

  • The powerful, high-volume outriggers extend forward of the centre hull for maximum diagonal stability.
  • Lightweight and easy to trailer. Set up and sailing in less than 30 minutes!
  • 35cm draft allows you to sail the boat up on a sandy beach or dry out – offering great fun for the whole family.
  • Award winning ‘Swing Wing’ system allows you to quickly berth anywhere in the world.
  • Computer-optimised structure ensures a rigid platform for dynamic and responsive handling.

DRAGONFLY FACTS

DRAGONFLY DESIGNERS

Dragonfly founder Jens Quorning teamed up with Danish naval designers Olsen Design in 2005, and their innovative collaboration was the start of a successful new era for Dragonfly Trimarans, with the introduction of 3D design.

Steen Olsen is the sole owner of Olsen Design and has played an integral role in the design and calculations of the last four Dragonfly models. Steen has more than 20 years of experience in naval design and has designed folding propellers, hatches and optimised rig details for America’s Cup sailboats. Steen has a passion for sailing and has won several racing awards internationally.

DRAGONFLY BUILD

The Dragonfly reputation starts with what sets them apart … top of the line, fast, lightweight trimarans.

Dragonfly's construction has consistent quality, a great team and customisation. Dragonfly Trimarans have been made in the same boatyard for 50 years, working towards widespread acceptance. The production facility has dedicated and highly skilled staff setting impossibly high standards for modern boatbuilding today. Working closely with some of the most qualified and experienced suppliers and subcontractors in the world, resulting in boats of impeccable, flawless quality.

SWING-WING SYSTEM

The award-winning Dragonfly Swing Wing system was designed by Borge and Jens Quorning in 1989. Using this revolutionary system, the trimaran can be folded to reduce the beam by more than 50% in less than one minute per side, using no tools and operating only from the cockpit.

This unique folding system has been standard on all Dragonflies since the introduction of the Quorning Swing Wing system. This allows them to use marina berths intended for monohulls and to be trailerable, saving space when accommodated in a harbour, marina or on land greatly reduces your storage costs!

It’s really the quality, that it’s the best. When I went to look at the factory, every tool had a place and they had a very specific system. And everyone was clearly trained and they seemed to take such pride in what they were doing.

We have a 28 Performance. I think I was convinced when we went down to Dragonfly for a test sail. Then it started to move things and well, I think we need to switch. It is great fun, I must say. I mean, when you get the wind, you get the speed and it

Dragonfly 35 Customer Testimonial - Chris

Dragonfly 35 Customer Testimonial – Chris

“I had been looking at many different trimaran brands and found the Dragonfly trimarans to standout due to their exceptional built quality and very clever design.” Chris, Dragonfly 35

Dragonfly , USA

We wondered how it would perform in the conditions that we’re going to have to sail it in. And my impression, to date, is that it handles the swell and the rough seas and the wind beautifully, even better than our monohull. So, so far, I’m delighted.
