However, TNT in no way indicates the explosives installed in the ship; it is the abbreviation for "The new trimaran". There is actually some innovation in the ship: the cross beams, which are mounted offset on the main hull, slide upwards and inwards on Teflon sliding surfaces with winch support. A patent application has been filed for this system. For the port, the width shrinks to 3.90 metres in about a minute. It takes a little longer and the boat, including floats, is only 2.99 metres wide. With a weight of just 2.2 tonnes, it can be trailered, provided the appropriate towing vehicle and special permit are available. Not bad for a ten-metre yacht. However, the interior is quite simple with an open foredeck. Nevertheless, there is a toilet and galley as well as sleeping space for a maximum of five people. The headroom is an impressive 1.95 metres.
The sail area is also quite generous: 81 square metres on the wind. This ensures a sail carrying capacity of 6.9, which means that the ship contains some explosive material. From 10 knots of wind, it is supposed to glide. To prevent undercutting, the floats are very pointed at the front as wave piercers and still have a lot of buoyancy in the front area. Otherwise, only the Dragonfly 35 and the Corsair 37 are in the TNT 34 range, although the former is heavier and can no longer be trailered. The Corsair (YACHT test in issue 20-2011) can also be trailered. The TNT 34 is priced at 199,000 euros. That's not exactly a small amount and a challenge for the shipyard to fulfil this requirement. You can hardly get more speed for the money anywhere else.
