Tantrum Too Racing Trimaran Yacht for Sale: A Brief Background and Overview

The Tantrum Too is a competitive seaworthy racer designed to be an offshore cruiser.

Built as Krysalid in 2006 by the then Auriga Yachts in France, the frighteningly fast trimaran yacht was meant to be a concept fast ocean racer cum cruiser trimaran.

Auriga Yachts went into bankruptcy sometime after but Krysalid was not about to leave so soon.

The yacht was bought out of bankruptcy by the very first owner, after which it was then sold to the chairman of the multihull association of France. It was after this time that Tantrum Too, known then as Krysalid became available for a bout of competitive racing along the west coast of Brittany.
