OWNER’S COMMENTS:
“JUST LIKE 7 HEAVEN is a well-maintained and thoroughly upgraded Seacart 30, known for its outstanding acceleration, stability, and impressive performance in both light and strong winds. The boat underwent a full refit in 2021 with focus on performance, safety, and modern equipment. The result is a trimaran in top condition, offering exceptional speed and sailing experiences. With a proven racing history and multiple top results, this Seacart 30 is fast, responsive, and fully prepared for new competitive challenges.” FURTHER BACKGROUND INFORMATION:
Sailors do sometimes need a new project – and that is exactly what “JUST LIKE 7TH HEAVEN” has become in the capable hands of her owners. The two Copenhagen-based racers have known each other for many years – and raced in just as many classes, though mainly in the X99’s. Their combined experiences also include the world of multihulls, and this ended up becoming their call for a very orange and indeed rapid new adventure.
The duo set their sights on the Seacart 30 – a brainchild of the Swedish firm Marström Composite AB in the early 00’s, and more importantly, it is one of few production boats made in an autoclave, and thus mostly from carbon fibre. This made it super light – and the whole philosophy of the Swedish featherweight was the ideal match for what the new owners had in mind.
The Seacart 30 was made in 2006. Back then, it was an attempt from Marström Composite AB to create a trimaran for One Class-racing. What her new owners were more interested in, however, was its construction. A Seacart is special in terms of material choices and the way it’s made, and this ended up sealing the deal for the Copenhagen-based crew:
The Seacart is pretty special, as it is made almost entirely from carbon fibre, it makes it super light and yet very sturdy. This means that they have a racer today weighing in at around 950 kg without sails – and no matter what you throw at it, it just handles it. . The whole adventure caught on in early 2021. The duo had decided what they wanted and basically just waited for the right offer to be listed. It happened in the Netherlands, and following the purchase, the Danish duo set to work taking it all apart.
The Seacart has been through an extensive process with countless new and upgraded parts. The Seacart itself was sanded and painted over, and at the end of the process, it had lost somewhere in the region of 100 kilos, bringing it down into three figures on the scales.
Upgrades and modifications for doublehanded sailing aside, the Seacart also needed a new wardrobe – and the duo quickly headed one way: They had known Elvstrøm Sails for ages, and had both used Elvstrøm Sails on many different boats over the years. The process led the crew to a different sail design than the one their Seacart used to run. The new wardrobe includes a revised mainsail design with a fatter head, but the big difference is in the downwind setup. The code sails are flatter than before – giving more sail area than before – but the shape ensures that it converts to added acceleration rather than more heeling.
