Leen 72 first look: Cutting-edge trimaran launched by Neel Yachts

• Top stories

French yard Leen has launched its biggest power-trimaran to date, the Leen 72, ahead of its public debut in October 2022.

The first Leen 72 recently hit the water  in La Rochelle, following the installation of its huge 49x27ft (15×8.2m) flybridge .

Following successful sea trials, the boat will be shipped to the US where it will be handed over to its commissioning owners. Its first public appearance is due to be at the Annapolis Power Boat Show in October 2022.

Best known for its Neel brand of sailing trimarans, the yard simply reversed the spelling to differentiate its new range of power multihulls. It launched its first power tri model last year, the Leen 56.

As well as an extensive main deck area, the principal benefit of these “power-tris” is efficiency. Three narrow beam hulls generate far less resistance than a single beamy monohull, meaning greatly reduced fuel consumption.

The yard hasn’t yet released any estimates for fuel burn rates but given the modest engine size and the large fuel tanks (the Leen 56 carries 3,000 litres of diesel as standard), this should give a safe cruising range of well over 500nm.

Leopard 46PC test drive: First full review of the world’s favourite powercat

Unlike conventional powercats , which have an engine in each hull, the power-tris have a single diesel in the centre hull and two smaller electric motors in the outer ones. These serve three purposes: improving low speed manoeuvrability, providing a silent and emissions-free means of leaving port, and serving as back-up propulsion in the event of a main engine failure.

The main engine on the Leen 56 will be a single 300-450hp shaft drive diesel, giving a top speed of 15-18 knots and a cruising speed of 12 knots. The larger Leen 72 will offer a broader spread of 300-500hp. Full hybrid and solar installations will be optional.

The accommodation layout of the Leen 56 is almost as unconventional as the hull configuration: the aft end of the main deck is split longitudinally between an owner’s suite to starboard and an open-plan saloon, galley and dining area to port.

The owner’s suite also spills down into the starboard hull where its bathroom is located. Two further double cabins occupy the centre and port hulls, although options exist for as many as six smaller cabins and up to 10 beds.

The Leen 72 has a more conventional layout with the whole of the main deck given over to living space and either four or six cabins on the lower deck.

Given the large volume of these boats, prices are surprisingly keen, starting at €998,000 ex. taxes for the Leen 56 and €1.55m for the Leen 72.

“Other than the occasional superyacht or record-breaker, nobody seems to have made a serious attempt at building a production power-tri but these new Leens seem to make a lot of sense,” says MBY editor Hugo Andreae. “If they turn out to be as efficient, spacious and stable as they claim, they could be onto a winner.”

Investigation found that Clarence Thomas took free yacht, helicopter trips in Russia: Democrats

• Oops! Something went wrong. Please try again later. More content below

A Senate Judiciary Committee investigation found that conservative Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas failed to disclose at least 35 luxury gifts, including a free yacht trip to Russia and a private helicopter to a palace in St. Petersburg, Vladimir Putin's hometown, Sens. Sheldon Whitehouse, D-R.I., and Ron Wyden, D-Or., said  in a letter  to Attorney General Merrick Garland.

The letter raised the "serious possibility of tax fraud" and accused Thomas of having "secretly accepted gifts and income potentially worth millions of dollars," mostly from billionaire real estate developer Harlan Crow, who Thomas once described as being among his "dearest friends." Buried in appendix list on page 14 are the references to the Russia trips, which took place in 2003. Other gifts from Crow include "multiple instances of free private jet travel, yacht travel, and lodging," "gifts of tuition for Justice Thomas's grandnephew," "real estate transactions," "home renovations," and "free rent for Justice Thomas's mother."

“The Senate is not a prosecutorial body, and the Supreme Court has no fact-finding function of its own, making the executive role all the more important if there is ever to be any complete determination of the facts,” the letter reads.

After a bombshell ProPublica report last year that revealed the extent of Thomas' financial ties with Crow and attempts to hide it, Thomas admitted to taking three trips on a private plane owned by Crow, but did not disclose any of the other gifts.

The senators are asking Garland to launch a special counsel investigation into Thomas, with the evidence collected so far "plainly suggest[ing] that Justice Thomas has committed numerous willful violations of federal ethics and false-statement laws and raises significant questions about whether he and his wealthy benefactors have complied with their federal tax obligations."

In a separate move on Wednesday, Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y., and a group of fellow progressives filed articles of impeachment against Thomas and Supreme Court Justice Samuel Alito for failing to disclose "millions of dollars in gifts from individuals with business before the court."

Clarence Thomas accepted a free yacht trip to Russia and got flown out on a complimentary helicopter ride to Putin's hometown, 2 Democratic senators say

• Democratic senators have accused Justice Clarence Thomas of accepting undisclosed gifts and trips.
• They say he accepted gifts such as a yacht trip to Russia and a chopper ride to Vladimir Putin's hometown.
• The senators want an investigation into potential tax fraud and ties between Thomas and Harlan Crow.

Two Democratic senators have accused Justice Clarence Thomas of accepting a free trip to Russian President Vladimir Putin's hometown.

Sen. Sheldon Whitehouse of Rhode Island and Sen. Ron Wyden of Oregon filed a letter to US Attorney General Merrick Garland on July 3, asking to open an investigation into the Supreme Court judge.

The letter said there was a "serious possibility of tax fraud" and accused Thomas of having "secretly accepted gifts and income potentially worth millions of dollars."

The letter's appendix , which lists 35 undisclosed gifts, shows a "yacht trip to Russia and the Baltics" and a "helicopter ride to Yusupov Palace, St. Petersburg," both listed under the year 2003.

St. Petersburg, Russia, is Putin's birthplace and where he grew up. The president now resides in Moscow.

The appendix list is titled "Likely Undisclosed Gifts and Income from Harlan Crow and Affiliated Companies." Harlan Crow is a real-estate developer and the former chairman and CEO of the Trammell Crow Company.

The senators cited a ProPublica report from May last year detailing Thomas' hushed-up financial ties to Crow.

The report said that apart from the Russia trip, Crow also funded Thomas' grandnephew Mark Martin 's boarding-school fees, which cost "more than $6,000 a month."

In their letter, the senators wrote that other gifts from Crow included "multiple instances of free private jet travel, yacht travel, and lodging," as well as "gifts of tuition for Justice Thomas's grandnephew," "real estate transactions," "home renovations," and "free rent for Justice Thomas's mother."

In September, Thomas said he'd accepted three trips on a private plane owned by Crow . He didn't mention any other gifts.

Representatives for Thomas, Whitehouse, Wyden and Crow didn't immediately respond to requests for comment from Business Insider sent outside regular business hours.

72′ leen power trimaran.

The LEEN 72 is a long range cruising multihulls, perfectly capable of transatlantic voyages and even living aboard in high latitudes.

This ecological trimaran is expected to be a lot more energy-efficient than typical monohull trawler yachts and 30 percent more energy-efficient than motor catamarans.

Built in a highly efficient new hybrid composite panel system these innovative power trimarans have a range of 5000 miles and may only be fueled up once a year. Both models have a large diesel engine as main propulsion and electric drives in the outer hulls (amas). This allows for great maneuvering in ports or silent autonomy on just the electric pod-drives. The LEEN range is a true hybrid electric multihull and a large generator acts as an effective charging device in case the main engine fails. With just the electric drives the boat is capable of speeds of up to 5 knots. Under full power and depending on the engine choice the boat can achieve 20 knots. Typical cruise is between 15-18 knots and consumption is a super-low 2l/hour. This is about 10 times less than a power trawler and twice as efficient as a catamaran trawler yacht.

Designed by Bernard Nivelt et Pierre Frutschi these boats are true liveaboard yachts that can be easily operated by a husband and wife team. Eric Bruneel, CEO and founder of NEEL and LEEN trimarans offers his full experience of having built more than 2000 multihulls and a racing record that other sailors can only dream of.
