Neel 45 Trimaran Review – What to Expect?

Neel 45

French sailor Eric Bruneel worked for a catamaran company overseeing the building of sailing vessels for years before starting his own sailboat-building venture. Brunell is the innovative force behind the tri-hulled sailboat dubbed a trimaran.

This Neel 45 Trimaran review, along with others, has discovered that this design is considered too futuristic or bizarre for some sailors, while others embrace the multihulled vessel with open arms and the passionate eagerness of a sailor waiting to set out on a voyage.

Table of Contents

Accommodation

The Neel 45 Trimaran was designed to look and feel modern. The furnishings are comfortable but serviceable and made from a lightweight material that won’t bog down the vessel.

Cabins feature double beds and large windows that offer a spectacular view from any angle. The boat is stripped down to bare essentials without compromising comfort. The spare accommodations allow for the boat to reach higher speeds.

One of the highlights below deck is the galley which gives you lots of counter space for cooking and is located in a central area that keeps you part of the action on board.

The advantage of having a champion sailor design a boat is that he has a deep understanding of what is needed to keep a vessel and her passengers safe.

The three hulls provide the boat with greater stability and balance, making sailing a smoother experience no matter what your destination.

Even down to the choice of furnishings, the Neel 45 has kept one eye on safety. The entire boat was kept to a minimum weight to keep it light, fast, and responsive.

Averaging 10 knots, the Neel 45 reaches speeds that would otherwise require a crew to run about to perform adjustments. This isn’t so on the 45, where controlling and maneuvering the vessel is kept on an even keel.

The power of the 45 is enough to take even experienced sailors aback in surprise. Under sail, the Neel 45 packs a punch that is nearly unmatched by its contemporaries.

The modernized look of the boat extends into the interior of the boat. Below deck is lined with a laminate that gives the interior a decidedly futuristic look that may or may not appeal to your particular tastes.

Sticklers for a boat to look like a boat inside, or to have the wood and snowy white paneling throughout the interior, will probably dislike the appearance below deck.

On the plus side, the headroom accommodates tall people easily, there is plenty of space for lounging, and there are numerous windows to let in natural light.

A three-hulled boat can still garner double-takes by unsuspecting passers-by and can be something the sailor will have to become used to over time.

The boat’s look has been compared to a spaceship and, much like the interior, the appeal is debatable and largely left to individual tastes.

Why Sail the Neel 45

  • The three-hulled design allows for greater control, power, and speed
  • Furnishings are minimalistic and lightweight
  • The three-hull design makes the vessel safer and more stable
  • Easy to control and sail
  • Modern design makes it stand out
  • Comfortable living spaces

In Conclusion

The Neel 45 Trimaran is a new experience for many sailors devoted to a single or double-hulled sailboat. The difference in designs, however, is worth the learning curve required for sailing this spaceship of the water.

The sheer speed and power are magnificent and exhilarating! If the aesthetics are displeasing to you, just bring a few colorful throws to toss around to add a splash of color. The performance strongly outweighs any offense to your inner decorator!

This looks really good. I like how the trimaran can be taken for a cruise holiday as it is a totally different experience from travelling and staying in luxury hotels.

A great getaway from city life as you can explore the world through this amazing trimaran. Now we just need to open up some wine bottles in the lower cabin and celebrate!

Yes, it is an awesome way to travel and visit beautiful islands. The trimaran is fast and comfortable, thus allows you to explore more places!

If you open up wine bottles, then cheers!

Thank you for the comment and wish you to a nice day

Hi and thanks for posting about the Neel 45 Trimaran. I really like your reviews because you always use good big clear photos to illustrate your points and also you always include the plans so I can see what is where – helps me visualise it. I’m off to Split this summer so will take a look at these.

Nice to hear from you again.

Thank you for the compliment. Split is an awesome starting point to begin your sailing trip.Here is a nice article about yacht charters in Croatia that could interest you.

Have a nice journey

Hi Daniella,

Very cool catamaran and thank you for your great review. I was always interested in doing sailing, but never had the possibility to do so until now. When I look at the price for this catamaran it is not possible at the moment to rent it 😉 Maybe in the future.

What do I have to do to become an official sailor, where I’m allowed to sail in different countries? Are you a sailor?

If you are interested to become a sailor then I am sure this article will help you a lot! Please read this if you want to know more about me

Hello Daniella, You always have something special to tell about yachts. I do love the way you place the pictures. They just put you in the yacht, thank you for the experience. I think the Neel 45 is futuristic in design, it looks stable and sturdy. I do not find it exterior attractive. I love its interior though. But if I may ask you between the Neel 45 and the Lagoon 560, which one will you choose for a cruise or probably own?

Hi Emmanuel,

To answer to your question, it really depends on your preferences . If you like speed , the Trimaran will be the perfect boat to choose , but if you want to cruise , then a catamaran like the lagoon 560 would be a better choice. Don’t take me wrong, catamarans are fast , but not as a Trimaran !

I hope it helped.

Thank you for the comment and wish you a nice day!

Going on a Yacht Cruise has always been a dream of mine, as it brings about a different set of travelling experiences. Can’t wait to go on a Yacht Vacation soon as The Trimaran looks like a cook sailboat to be on. Is it expensive to rent one though? Do you have to sail it on your own or it is possible to hire a sailor to do it for you?

This boat is not as expensive as you think it is. The price is 906 Euro per person for a period of 7 days. The price of an hotel is much higher !You can not sail this boat on your own especially if you don’t possess a skipper license.I hope it helped and if you any other question, I will be more than happy to help you

Have a nice day

This is sweet. I remember I went on a catamaran a couple times in the virgin islands and it was a blast. it was our friends so we didn’t have to pay for it which was nice. I had a hard time understanding your payment number. what is 7.25 pounds in American dollars?

That’s nice ,especially when it’s free!

The price is 8.248$ per week

I hope it helped and don’t hesitate to contact me for any other questions.

Have a nice:)

Hey, really good review, it really got me pumped up to go on vacations pretty soon, hopefully I can before winter though, I will keep updated on your site to check out your latest reviews, hopefully find a good place or service, let me tell my wife about your page so she can also check it out.

I am glad you liked the review . No problem, I am here to to help 🙂

Thank you for passing by and wish you a great day

Hey Daniella, thanks for the great article. I believe I’ve seen other trihulled vessels about before but don’t think I have ever seen a Trimaran. I can certainly see why it would have some advantages, but do prefer the look of a classic monohull. That certainly is subjective, though.

My sister did a tour of the Caribbean a few years ago on a dual hulled boat. I might like to do something similar and was wondering if you knew of anyone that might be offering something like that with a trihull.

Hi Christian,

Tri hulls were very popular in the 70s and 80s, these little boats are more for racing.

I never tried them though.

A monohull is a great boat as well, it is a question of personal choice. I have sailed a lot on monohulls, but today my favorite yachts are Cats.

We don’t rent Tri Hulls, but there is, for example, the Trimaran just above in the article:) This Trimaran Neel 45 is only avalable in Croatia in July and August.

I hope it helped and if you need to know any further information, please don’t hesitate to ask, I’ll be more than happy to help

Thank you for the comment and I wish you an awesome day!

Two years after having presented a resolutely innovative 50-foot trimaran at La Rochelle's Grand Pavois, the builder Neel is launching a brand new 45-footer, built on the same basic principle as its big sister.

Here the hulls and floats are no longer dedicated to the liveable volume, but following the example of more performance-oriented boats, the whole boat is organised around hulls whose essential role is to support the boat's displacement. Here there is a living platform, as flat as a pancake (see the accommodation plan!), on the structure of a trimaran. The result is convincing, the object is beautiful (subjective view), successful and very modern, with its three inverted bows, just like Banque Populaire V or a MOD 70. But there is also the ridge, which marks on the hulls a slight 'longitudinal step', whose presence can only be justified as an accompaniment to the design of the cross beams, which are closer to the wing principle, so dear to Newick. Looking closely, moreover, there is a vague family connection with the American architect, with notably the stern of the central hull, which is completely open. The comparison stops there. On the Neel, unlike on a cruising catamaran, there is no chasing after liveable volume, as the builder considers it sufficient, with a saloon (convertible into a double berth), three double cabins, two heads and a galley. On our test model, (the first...

Neel 45 Trimaran Review

Neel 45 trimaran

The 645-square-foot mainsail is simple to manage. The block-and-tackle mainsheets offer full sail-shaping control without a traveler; A self-tacking jib and a bow-thruster simplify sail-handling and maneuvering in tight spaces. In 15 knots of breeze, we reached at just over 11 knots boat speed, in 1-2ft sea state. With a 55-hp Volvo pushing us at 2600 rpm, we made about 8.5 knots; The boat can reach speeds as high as 20 knots but a comfortable cruising speed is about 10 knots.

NEEL 45: Living Large on a Trimaran

' src=

Theoretically, I was to spend all day Monday testing boats after the “multi-cocks” show in Lorient, but the weather was so foul everyone cancelled on me. Instead I managed to cram in a couple of short tests during the last day of the show, including one on the new Neel 45 , an intriguing trimaran that tries to fit cat-sized cruising accommodations into a three-hulled format.

This is not a new concept. Early cruising tris, those slab-sided beasts built of plywood back in the 1960s, tried to pull off this trick by pushing sleeping spaces into the bridgedecks connecting the main hull to the amas. These boats proved to be a bit too heavy and unwieldy to sail as well as a trimaran should and were also fragile. You might recall the disintegration of Nigel Tetley’s Piver-designed Victress during the Golden Globe Race in 1969, or the less-well-publicized fracturing of a plywood tri sailed by cruisers Val and Ernest Haigh some years later.

Since then cruising tris have been much leaner, with accommodations only in the main hull. These boats sail very well, but have cramped living quarters. The most successful ones are rather small, have folding amas, and are little more than super-fast camp-cruisers.

One of the two main staterooms. Each has an en suite head. Not too shabby for a trimaran!

The Neel 45 (and its somewhat larger predecessor, the Neel 50, introduced a year or two ago) seeks to reverse this trend. Again, accommodation space is increased by putting primary sleeping spaces in the solid bridgedecks either side of the main hull. But these are proper staterooms, with nice double berths and big ports that let in lots of light, and are much more pleasant than the caves found on the ply tris of old. There’s also a small stateroom with a double up in the bow, plus (on the charter version I sailed) four single berths inside the two amas, making for a total of 10 available berths overall.

The main saloon, with nav desk in foreground and dinette behind. The cabin sole is finished with a very durable synthetic fabric

The central hull is taken up by a pair of heads aft, set either side of the central walkway, a galley amidships, and a spacious saloon forward, behind a semi-circular array of port windows that provide exactly the sort of wrap-around view of the world found on cruising cats. Beneath the cabin sole is a vast basement, with lots of room for storage and systems.

Down in the basement. The engine, you will note, is very accessible

Meanwhile, out in the cockpit. This is a publicity shot. It was nowhere near this nice in Lorient

Construction, of course, is modern and light: the hull and deck are foam-cored glass; interior components have honeycomb coring. Likewise with the design. All three hulls have super-fine entries and narrow waterplanes. To fit in all the living space, the main hull flares out into large nacelles above the waterline, but there’s still quite a bit of clearance, both horizontal and vertical, underneath the bridgedeck. The rig features a big roachy square-headed mainsail (air draft is 63 feet) with a working jib and genoa set on twin furlers forward. There’s also a short sprit for flying big A-sails and screechers.

It was windy and pretty rough outside, so we conducted all of our brief test (in company with members of the Belgian yachting press, who were conveniently labeled as such) inside the harbor. The wind, as a result, was very quirky, constantly switching direction and puffing up and down from less than 10 knots to over 30 apparent.

I wouldn’t want to say too much without sailing the boat a bit longer in more stable conditions, but I was impressed. The boat was very easily driven. Under power we made 11 knots at 3,100 rpm; at 2,100 it was 9.5 knots. With the sails up (one reef in the main, plus the self-tacking small jib) we were moving at or near wind speed when the wind was below 10 knots and at 9 to 11 knots when things got gustier. Tacking angles were reasonably tight, and the boat was fully powered up at a 40 degree apparent wind angle. Which really surprised me later when I saw a profile drawing and noticed how insubstantial the fixed keel under main hull is.

Under sail in Lorient. Guess which one is from Belgium

The helm at all times was light and very responsive, much more so than on any cruising catamaran. Indeed, perhaps the most impressive thing about the boat was how stable and controllable it was when we suddenly got hammered by big gusts of wind. There were no big loads on the wheel, there was no tendency for the boat to round up, and though the boat does heel much more than a cat, there was nothing at all dramatic about it.

Under power, as we came back to the dock, I noticed she was a bit twitchy. The boat has a lot of windage and was easily pushed around in the gusts. It took some attention to keep her straight, and I was very happy to have a bow-thruster at my disposal.

Coming away from the boat I was wondering how she’d do when loaded up for cruising. I’d certainly love to find out sometime. Overall, compared to a cruising cat of comparable length, I’d say this boat in fact has somewhat less living space, but markedly better performance. Certainly worth thinking about if you’re in the market for a new cruising multihull.
