ABSTRACT:
A retractable connecting beam for a trimaran that allows the stabilizing floats to be retracted in against the center hull for trailering or marina docking. The outer end of the connecting beam is pivotally secured to the top surface of the stabilizing float so that as the connecting beam is retracted, the stabilizing float will remain vertical as it is drawn into its retracted position adjacent the center hull of the trimaran. The inner end of the connecting beam is oriented generally upright thus avoiding restricting access along the center hull deck of the trimaran.
