ABSTRACT:
A molded or pre-fabricated Central Core Unit module, containing the aligned attachment points, surfaces, or brackets necessary for incorporating the Float Connection Assemblies for the retraction of a trimaran's stabilizing floats, to be along side the center hull of a trimaran. The Float Connection Assemblies are attached to and aligned by this Central Core Unit. The Core Unit module replaces a number of brackets or surfaces and bulkheads that had to be independently constructed and aligned in the central hull. With the Central Core Unit module, the Float Connection Assemblies can be self-contained and independent from the trimaran hulls, which can then be constructed of any material. The Central Core Unit module and associated Float Connection Assemblies can be removable and used in a wide range of trimaran designs of similar size.
