Tinker sailor’s solo ‘tri’: Malaysian handyman builds a trimaran sailing kayak from scratch

Khoo first connects the pair of stabilisers with strong aluminium rods before laying them on the brackets on the kayak.

When handyman Gerald Khoo, who loves boating, had to stay at home during the pandemic, he kept himself busy by building a trimaran sailing kayak.

Like the name suggests, a trimaran has three hulls compared to the catamaran’s two, making it even safer on the water.
