A bold vision: twin motors in each outer ama, a centralised tender garage, a smart glass cabin, an atrium-style sail pit — a new standard in sailing.
Tender Garage
Tender storage has long been an unresolved challenge in trimaran design. VMG's enclosed garage changes that
Smart Glass On-Deck Suite & Lower Hulls
A saloon-level cabin without compromising visibility. VMG's smart glass makes it possible — at the touch of a button.
Forward & Aft Helms
No single helm position suits every condition. VMG doesn't choose — it provides three.
Sail Pit and Sail Controls
Full control from a single position, comfort for four. The VMG 53's sail pit is designed to sail safely and light-handed.
