Trinity marinas are able to supply 2 types of sailaways, thereby offering you excellent choice. Our basic specifications and price guides are listed below, however, we are able to tailor any of our sailaways to meet your particular requirements and quote accordingly.
Sailaway Specifications
Felix 1 - Unlined sailway
The advantage of an unlined sailaway is that the bulkheads are not in place giving you total flexibility to design the space to your requirements throughout the build process. If you are certain on your design then, Felix 2 our lined sailaway maybe a better option as this comes with bulkheads and wiring loom. See further down the page for full specification:
