46' Hughs Trimaran
Pipe3 (ex Faamu Sami) is a custom 46' trimaran designed by Kurt Hughes Sailing Designs of Seattle, WA and built by Dick Vermeulen of Maine Cat in Bremen, ME. In 2014, Pipe3 underwent a refit at Lyman-Morse at which time the bows were reconfigured with a modern wave piercing shape. The boat was also repainted, had a Dickinson Newport propane heater installed as well as a Spectra Watermakers Cape Horn Xtreme model watermaker.
