Rapido Trimarans’ Builder Triac Composites Featured in The Report Magazine

Prestigious marine surveyors' magazine shines a spotlight on advanced composite manufacturing and structural excellence behind Rapido’s world-class multihulls.

The December 2025 edition of "The Report", the official magazine of the International Institute of Marine Surveying, features a four-page article on Triac Composites, the specialist builder behind every Rapido trimaran and Rapido power cat.

As Rapido’s exclusive manufacturing partner, Triac transforms Morrelli & Melvin’s world-class multihull designs into high-performance reality. Through high-precision composite construction, disciplined engineering collaboration and production standards normally seen in elite racing programs, Triac ensures each Rapido is built to exceptional levels of accuracy, strength and reliability.

The article showcases Triac’s extensive in-house capabilities, including prepreg carbon fabrication, autoclave curing, advanced robotic milling, structural analysis and validation, and the full construction of all Rapido models.

For the surveying community, the feature underscores Triac’s deep commitment to safety and structural integrity; from early-stage engineering and controlled processes through to watertight integrity, crash-zone protection and disciplined composite workmanship.

Whether manufacturing Rapido’s performance multihulls, integrating foiling technologies or producing specialised composite components for defence and industry, Triac demonstrates the expertise, precision and consistency required of a truly global composite manufacturer. And the standard that Rapido owners rightfully expect.
