Single-handed multihuller, offshore pace-setter and Cruising World Boat Of The Year judge Peter Hogg said, “I like this boat. She’s a very good pocket cruiser, trailerable and nicely detailed.” Fellow panelist Bill Lee said, “This boat is fun to sail, with no real faults for her intended purpose.” And circumnavigator Mark Schrader said, “She’s a great pocket cruiser, one that sails really well and offers truly amazing accommodations for her size”. They were all talking about the new Borge Quorning-designed Dragonfly 920 Swing Wing trimaran.
Quality and refinement are not strangers to Denmark’s Quorning Boats where the 920 and three swing-wing siblings – the 1000, 800 and 600 – are built. Not too long ago the 33-foot Dragonfly 1000 took honors in the multihull categories of both Cruising World and Sailing WorldÕs 1994 Boat Of The Year competitions. At a little over 30 feet, the 920 offers virtually the same sailing package in a slightly smaller wrapper. The highlights: spry performance; safe, secure, on-the-level multihull cruising; wide beam easily reduced to ten feet for access to marinas and slips (and further reduced to 8’4″ for trailering); a kick-up centerboard; a kick-up rudder; and truly remarkable finished accommodations.
The newest Dragonfly mimics her predecessors with sandwich construction hand laid using polyester resin and PVC closed-cell foam core throughout the main hull, amas and deck. Each ama is divided by a pair of structural bulkheads designed to promote rigidity and create three separate watertight compartments, any one of which is said to have enough positive buoyancy to float the whole vessel (reassuring to say the least, though our scrutiny fell shy of putting that claim to the test). The main hull includes a crash bulkhead forward to contain collision spoil. The boat’s pivoting akas are fabricated of solid glass with unidirectional fabric oriented to optimize strength and rigidity; at the critical pivot points, stainless steel inserts spread the load and commit to a unified structural network once the whole operation is locked into place. The combination of finely tuned torsion cables, rigid aluminum locking struts and tensioned running backs ensures that the 920 when unfolded and secured in its sailing configuration has the overall integrity of a monocoque tri. Our sea trials aboard the boat supported this very notion; indeed, it felt solid and moved as one, a hardy trimaran unfettered by any apparent weaknesses in its various articulating limbs or points of attachment.
Deck, cockpit and rig are developed for convenient if not easy shorthanded sailing. The cockpit itself is smallish by wide-stern monohull standards, but virtually every control line you need to sail upwind, downwind or sideways runs back to it and remains at the helmspersonÕs fingertips. This includes adjustable jib lead pendants on the cabintop and some cleverly led runner tails that follow the after akas inboard and secure at rope clutches just outside the cockpit coaming. Standard are a pair of Andersen 28 self-tailing winches for halyards, reefing and other cabintop running rigging. A pair of Andersen 40 self-tailing winches serve primary duty on the cockpit coamings. The rig is a high-performance, two-spreader section of carbon fiber fully outfitted with Frederiksen gear, from the ballslide system at the luff of the full-batten mainsail to the two-speed block system and traveler running the mainsheet. The jib is on a furler and it pretty much owns the narrow foredeck; this relegates anchor deployment to an unobtrusive roller fitting on the starboard aka inboard.
The Dragonfly people have been complimented before on the success of their cabinetwork and interior execution and they deserve it yet again. Despite the obvious space constraints of a sleek 30-foot tri, they have managed to work wonders in the main hull of this one. All the elements are there: private sleeping quarters in the V-berth forward, a fully enclosed head, a working galley efficiency with its own dedicated sink and space for an optional alcohol or kerosene stove, a cozy saloon with longitudinal settees port and starboard flanking a fold-up dinette, and even a sizable hanging locker. The look incorporates satin-finished mahogany, white ceilings and upholstered seats.
There is standing headroom in the main cabin and ambient light by way of fixed glass windows. Twelve-volt electrical distribution is handled through a fused panel; two batteries offer a total of 144 amp-hours of DC power, while an AC shorepower package is available optionally. Provisioning and storage are addressed in a variety of bins, cubbies, lockers and nooks.
Sailing the 920 is effortless and fun. It’s a very quick boat but it’s also very stable, two qualities that combine to take the trepidation out of performance and allow an active family to indulge itself without feeling overwhelmed by the machine. In our light-air testing we churned along to weather aided by good sails and a sizable centerboard; off the wind we accelerated in total control, set a rather large asymmetrical kite, jibed it neatly from one windward ama to the next, and reveled in the boat’s speed and spunk. In the true spirit of lightweight, powered-up trimarans, this one moves out and stays on her feet – really a trip to sail.
And you reap huge dividends in versatility when the sails come down and it’s time to take her home. With the turn of a cockpit winch, the amas nest against the main hull in a matter of minutes, turning 22 feet of sailing beam into a marina-friendly 10 feet. A 9.9-horsepower four-stroke Yamaha outboard deploys off a bracket on the stern and powers the light craft away at six-plus knots. Shipped draft at 1’6″ gets you close to shore. Should you want to hit the highways, with a little more effort you can disassemble the boat and put her on a trailer with a road-legal 8’4″ beam.
In the end what you’ve got is a nifty little cruiser with good jets, shallow draft and complete albeit diminutive accommodations. The options list is extensive and worth studying: Everything from lifelines to a holding tank is apt to require your signature. When you come right down to it, however, Dragonfly trimarans in this country are treated on what amounts to a custom basis in the first place, which means that you specify yours to suit your needs for a few extra dollars. You’re not looking at a big old Swan that’s going to take you around the southern capes, but in the world of small boats and spiffy performance cruisers capable of bona fide cruising, the Dragonfly 920 is a real find. A day on the bay and you’re hooked.

Your special offer
So, you want a boat with civilised accommodation? A boat with some of the power and response of a high performance dinghy or catamaran? A boat that can be cruised with the family anywhere you want, raced round the cans with a crew or further afield short-handed, and even taken offshore if you fancy an RORC event? Look no further. A top class trimaran has it all. In fact it’s a mystery why we don’t all sail them.
The Dragonfly 920 Extreme is fast, in fact it’s very fast. We took it out on Southampton Water with the wind up and down from 12 to 20 knots and got consistent speed readings in the high teens — sailing to windward, without trying. Offwind on a reach we clocked a best 23.3 knots (GPS approved) and there’s no reason to suppose the boat couldn’t make 25 knots with a little more knowledge. For a monohull to do that you’d be looking at twice the length, more than twice the crew and much more than twice the money.
Dragonfly trimarans are built in Denmark by the family firm of Quorning Boats, which was founded in 1967 and has been building them ever since. The oldest model in the range is the 26ft Dragonfly 800, of which more than 300 have been sold. It’s been a long time favourite with enthusiastic British owners who have formed the backbone of the MOCRA (Multihull Offshore Cruiser Racer Association) fleet. Borge Quorning and his son Jens developed the swingwing folding beam system, which was introduced on the Dragonfly 800 in 1989 and is now common to all the range. This allows the Dragonfly to berth in a monohull space in a marina, as well as being fully trailable. The system is used on the very latest 920 Extreme, billed as a boat for hi-tech cruising and racing, first launched in January 2003.
The Extreme is a development of the standard Dragonfly 920 with a taller rig, more sail area, deeper carbon rudder blade and centreboard, wider beam, longer and more buoyant floats, and curved beams that arch higher over the water so they are less likely to smack waves. The beams are folded back with an overlap at the stern, which explains why the boat becomes a little longer, and also looks a bit curious when parked in a marina. The rule is that you can motor with one or both beams folded in protected water. Once outside, both beams should be fully extended and locked, a simple ‘wind them out’ operation that takes not much more than a minute, either side.
The Dragonfly is unsinkable with plenty of foam and separate buoyancy compartments in its main hull and floats, plus no lead mine to drag your boat down. You don’t need to moor in deep water, half a mile off the beach with all the yachts. The 920 has a draft of less than half a metre with its carbon centreboard pulled right up, allowing you to literally park on the beach with no problems about drying out. You can pop the Dragonfly on a trailer and tow it where you want to go. The West Country, Scottish islands or South of France? No problem, though importer Mick Welch advises that you do need a hefty car — preferably 4WD — to tow the three ton load of the 920 Extreme plus trailer, and 55mph is about as fast as you want to go. He also recommends allowing half a day to get a 920 from trailer to ready to sail on the water, though the Danes who make them can do it in 75 minutes. Two people — perhaps the typical husband and wife sailing together — can do everything with the exception of lifting on the floats. This is a five minute operation that needs two extra pairs of hands which can invariably be found among bystanders on the slipway. At the end of the season you can park it at home. No need to pay those boatyard and marina fees.
The 920 Extreme we tested had only been raced once, in the 2003 Round the Island race when it won the multihull cruiser class by a clear hour. It came complete with trimmings that range from central heating in the cabins to a stylish set of Kevlar Tape Drive sails. The accommodation looks comfortable enough for four, with two cabins, separate heads compartment, galley and the type of high level finish you associate with Scandinavian boats.
We sailed with Mick Welch, Dick Batt (who made the spinnaker) and James Stewart who has won most things on the MOCRA circuit with a Dragonfly 800, but is currently proving unbeatable with his new standard 920. Sailing the Extreme felt a little curious for all of us, because it was not dramatic. The speedo just stayed consistently in the high teens upwind, and then went to 20 knots plus offwind with a best speed of 23.3 knots for the day and a fine plume of spray off the float indicating plenty of forward progress. At that moment I could have wandered below to make a cup of tea or read the paper. The boat felt stable and unfussed, with everything channeled into sailing unreasonably fast. It’s easy on the tiller, easy to gybe or tack, with no problems. You obviously need to watch where you’re going, and you also need a grip on high performance multihull characteristics which relate closely to handling an asymmetric dinghy.
What about sailing through waves in a boat that could do 25 knots? Mick Welch reckons it’s not a problem downwind. While monohulls are rolling and broaching, you can sail pretty much as fast as the waves which helps smooth them out. However, upwind you would need to back off to prevent the boat flying off wave tops, cutting your speed to suit the conditions and to stop anything breaking.
There must be drawbacks. With three hulls, four beams and a sophisticated structure that needs to be as light as possible to make it go, trimarans are expensive to build. The one we sailed (with extras including heating, canopy, and spinnaker gear) is yours for £120,000, which sounds like a load of money if you’re looking at nine metre monohulls. But there’s no comparison since the Dragonfly 920 Extreme is a totally different boat. Then there’s the indoor accommodation, which frankly can’t compete with the wide open spaces of a modern cruiser. The main hull of a trimaran needs to be slim for maximum performance; on the Dragonfly 920 width is also constrained by the maximum legal beam for towing and 3.2 metres puts it right on the limit.
Some people also criticise multihulls for turning over. Well, they can. Some years ago the legendary Danish sailor Paul Elvström ran his Dragonfly 800 into a UFO at speed. It ruptured the leeward float, which flooded and capsized the boat. The designers set to work to redesign the floats which now have more separate compartments and have passed all ‘unsinkabilty’ tests. A 920 Extreme could still capsize through crew error. To give an example, another Dragonfly 800 capsized in English waters, sailing in waves with full main and kite in 25 knots of wind. The owner went below, leaving one guy alone in the cockpit who had no experience of sailing a trimaran at speed. So when a big gust came he luffed rather than bearing away and the boat was blown over sideways. It’s just a question of having the right experience, and going carefully while you acquire it.
I would be delighted to own a 920 Extreme, but there are a few good reasons why it won’t happen: £120,000 sounds like a lot for a 30- footer, but you can pay more — one happy owner has opted for carbon sails and blue hulls which helped elevate the price by another £5,000. However, it is a fantastic boat and such fun. Two people could cruise it confidently and the big rig is ideal for lighter wind locations with virtually instant reefing available. In addition to single line control, the ball car system on the mainsail luff has so little friction that you can reef with the boom out, sailing downwind.
Mick Welch says the optimum 920 Extreme racing crew would be just three people — though there’s room for a fourth to join the fun — with pretty much everything done from the cockpit apart from launching and landing the kite off the trampoline on either side. The accommodation may appear a little tight, but a huge cockpit tent creates a complete extra cabin. You can even use the companionway hatch as a stylish cockpit table — the Danes have really been clever.

Boat test from the Multihulls World #75 (may/june 2004)
Is the "folding attitude" a purely anglo-saxon concept whose sphere of influence is restricted tp us and baltic waters? We may wish that this was not the case, but it must be recognised that in spite of all their incontrovertible advantages, these boats are not making inroads into the market in southern Europe.

This swing-winged racer is full of surprises.
The first swing-wing trimaran I ever saw was built in England in the 1960s, designed by John Westell who gave us the 505 dinghy. The trimaran’s floats swung aft when at rest and settled under the flare in the main hull, like chicks snuggling under mum’s feathers.
But the crossbeams were a lattice of tubular metal and looked like a Meccano set. Remember Meccano ? No ? Oh, well. The Farrier vertically-folding system has held sway ever since, used on home-built tris to Farrier’s designs and later on bigger Farrier production tris built in the US.
How many remember the Farrier-designed Tramp day sailer built by Haines Hunter ? No one ? Oh, well. In the late 1980s, Danish trimaran builder Borge Quorning and his son Jens developed a new horizontal-swinging system for their Dragonfly 800. They now build four models, the 800, 920, the new 35, and the 1200, a cruiser. Local yacht importers Windcraft have the Dragonfly agency here and landed their first tri, a 920 Extreme. The Extreme means it has more sail and wider beam than the standard 920. In modern trimaran terms this boat is far from extreme, more a cruiser/racer with plenty of sail. Both models have carbon masts and alloy booms.
Swing-wing system The Dragonfly’s swing-wing system is based on fairly simple gate hinges at the inboard ends of the crossbeams, and swivels in the floats. There’s a trick, though; as the floats swing inboard they lower in relation to the main hull to stabilise the folded boat.
The folded craft is 3.2m wide. The boat is supplied with a shipping cradle, so it can be trucked easily. Or you can order a trailer (expensive, says Windcraft’s Peter Hrones).
How do the swing-wings work ? We will get to that in a minute.
The Dragonfly Extreme is extreme only in that it has more sail and wider overall beam than the standard model. Hull and floats are quite conservative in design and specification and below decks the main hull is nicely trimmed in traditional style, white mouldings with teak trim.
There’s a double bed up front and the two saloon settees fold out to make single beds. The head contains a manually operated toilet; there is no shower. A black-water holding tank is optional.
The two-burner cook top, aft on the starboard side, is hidden beneath a tinted panel; opposite is a sink. The interior is neat and comfortable for a family for a weekend, a couple for longer. It is not as roomy as a monohull of the same length, to state the bleedin’ obvious, but for the right people the accommodation is appropriate in a country where we live outside when we go boating. I do, anyway.
How does it all work ? We fire up the 9.9hp Yamama four-stroke and motor out of the marina’s innermost berth where water depth is limited. The motor is attached to the tiller by a strut, so that when you turn the rudder you turn the motor.
Kick-up cleat We lower the centreboard (carbon, like the rudder blade, on the Extreme), which has a kick-up cleat, which releases if we hit anything. Then our skipper runs a line to one of the winches on the gunwale and winches away until the float is fully extended. He locks it in place with a diagonal strut. He does the same thing the other side.
Then he goes forward and runs out from the main hull bow a cable, which attaches to the outboard end of the forward beam. There is one each side. So, there’s a restraint both forward and aft each side which will prevent the wings from folding up and, presumably, leaving you swimming.
Then you tension the two backstays. If this sounds like a rigmarole, there is no urgency to the procedure as the boat sits quietly, like a well-disciplined hound waiting patiently to be unleashed.
We raise the main, on a 2:1 halyard, unfurl the jib (after removing its protective sock) and sail away. This boat has the optional folding seats, which get you outboard where you can see the headsail and you get a better feel for the angle of heel and for the boat’s responses.
And respond she does. Cats have their attributes but good tris are more responsive and more tactile to sail, not as good as a refined mono but good enough. The headsail sheets very close so the boat points high, up to 30 degrees Apparent, but no multis are happy pinching.
There’s a barber hauler system for the jib, which maintains good sail shape when the sheets are eased, and there’s a vang system for holding down the boom when the mainsheet is sprung.
An extension of the barber hauler system allows you to haul the tack of the spinnaker out to the windward hull, so you can run square. You can also fly it from the bowsprit in the conventional way. The sprit, by the way, I forgot to mention it folds up to save marina space.
How does she go ? The breeze was up and down and light. We squeezed her up to 7 knots upwind in 10 knots or so, then as we bore away we got a little gust and she jumped to 11 knots in a second or two, with enough acceleration to give us a buzz. Under two sails the builders reckon she will give you 11 knots in 15 of breeze on a tight reach, 17 knots if you bear away.
Hoist the kite Hoist the kite and the fun starts. They reckon 10 knots of wind will give you 15 of boat speed, 12-15 knots should generate 19 knots. The highest speed they have seen is 25 knots.
Our skipper has had her out in 25 knots of breeze and reckons the lee hull had plenty of reserve buoyancy when pushed hard.
So she is equipped to race well but she will succeed as a social sailer because she is both responsive and docile, and the low angles of heel (5-8 degrees say the builders) mean novices won’t panic as they do on a mono when the world tilts beyond their imaginings. I watch her sailing at the same time as the Pittwater multi-hull fleet, and she sails at a lower angle of heel than the F28R tris, the production boats nearest in concept to the Dragonfly.
Like the insect it is named after, this Dragonfly has two distinct travelling modes. It is capable of a gentle hovering pace for those who like to cruise, but if you pull a few ropes, it is suddenly capable of rapid acceleration. This a nicely built craft, very cleverly designed and detailed, which is the Scandinavian way. She is fast and handy, and the narrow beam overcomes any storage problems.
Who will buy her ? The only rule about predicting boat ownership these days is that you cannot predict it. People are happy to spend a millon dollars on their first boat. They buy $500,000 yachts as their second boat, when their first was a dinghy 30 years before.
David, who owns this boat, may or may not be a typical Dragonfly customer. He sold his 48ft fast catamaran to take on the Dragonfly. He no longer wants to cruise long distances and will use the tri for day-sailing and racing, partly because his kids are no longer available for long periods of time.
Will she attract only multi-hull devotees or is she versatile enough, attractive enough and so well built she will convert the uninitiated ? Time will tell.
What about price ? Multi-hull prices can make you wince because a lot of material is involved in their construction. I expected the worst but was pleasantly surprised. The 920 Extreme costs $329,400. The 920 Touring returns $100 change from $300k; $299,900. You could compare that figure with cats and monohulls but there is no point. For what this boat has to offer, speed with refinement, it is good value. There is nothing quite like it, a quick and handy boat with this level of interior trim.
As I walked back to the car I remembered the first modern tri I sailed on, a 31ft Kelsall design in Britain. Then it struck that was almost 40 years ago!

Dragonfly 920 Extreme is a 30 ′ 2 ″ / 9.2 m trimaran sailboat designed by Børge Quorning and built by Quorning Boats starting in 2003.
Auxilary power, accomodations, calculations.
The theoretical maximum speed that a displacement hull can move efficiently through the water is determined by it's waterline length and displacement. It may be unable to reach this speed if the boat is underpowered or heavily loaded, though it may exceed this speed given enough power. Read more.
Classic hull speed formula:
Hull Speed = 1.34 x √LWL
Max Speed/Length ratio = 8.26 ÷ Displacement/Length ratio .311 Hull Speed = Max Speed/Length ratio x √LWL
A measure of the power of the sails relative to the weight of the boat. The higher the number, the higher the performance, but the harder the boat will be to handle. This ratio is a "non-dimensional" value that facilitates comparisons between boats of different types and sizes. Read more.
SA/D = SA ÷ (D ÷ 64) 2/3
A measure of the stability of a boat's hull that suggests how well a monohull will stand up to its sails. The ballast displacement ratio indicates how much of the weight of a boat is placed for maximum stability against capsizing and is an indicator of stiffness and resistance to capsize.
Ballast / Displacement * 100
A measure of the weight of the boat relative to it's length at the waterline. The higher a boat’s D/L ratio, the more easily it will carry a load and the more comfortable its motion will be. The lower a boat's ratio is, the less power it takes to drive the boat to its nominal hull speed or beyond. Read more.
D/L = (D ÷ 2240) ÷ (0.01 x LWL)³
This ratio assess how quickly and abruptly a boat’s hull reacts to waves in a significant seaway, these being the elements of a boat’s motion most likely to cause seasickness. Read more.
Comfort ratio = D ÷ (.65 x (.7 LWL + .3 LOA) x Beam 1.33 )
This formula attempts to indicate whether a given boat might be too wide and light to readily right itself after being overturned in extreme conditions. Read more.
CSV = Beam ÷ ³√(D / 64)
Beam folded: 3.1m. Similar to DRAGONFLY 920 but with more beam and sail area.

LENGTH: Traditionally, LOA (length over all) equaled hull length. Today, many builders use LOA to include rail overhangs, bowsprits, etc. and LOD (length on deck) for hull length. That said, LOA may still mean LOD if the builder is being honest and using accepted industry standards developed by groups like the ABYC (American Boat and Yacht Council).
