What does TRIMARAN mean in Scrabble?
noun
nautical
A fast sailing boat with three hulls side by side, a long central one and two smaller outer ones.
The outer floats give a trimaran great stability without the weight of a deep keel, which is why the type is popular for ocean racing. Compare the catamaran, which has only two hulls.
