The fastest boat to ever sail Charlotte Harbor

I put up pictures of Adrenalin, the F40 trimaran in a photo album in Catamaran History. She was at Burnt Store Marina back in 1987 for shakedown and testing. I left them a note asking for a ride but never heard back.

From the Gougeon Brothers website:

Adrenalin is a Formula 40 Trimaran with articulating amas. GBI built her for Bill Piper of Ossineke, Michigan in 1987. This boat amazed the sailboat racing world by taking an extremely close second place during her first regatta: the Formula 40 Grand Prix circuit in Brest, France, in April of 1988.

A Formula 40 rule change later legislated Adrenalin out of contention.
