International Catamaran Challenge Trophy

The International Catamaran Challenge Trophy is a big race that happens every few years.

Imagine you have two boats that are tied together side by side, with a big space in the middle. That's kind of what a catamaran looks like!

A lot of people like to build and race catamarans, and some of the best catamaran racers from different countries compete in the International Catamaran Challenge Trophy. It's kind of like the Olympics but for catamarans.

The racers have to follow certain rules, like how big their boats can be and how many people can be on the boat. They also have to work together really well, because if they don't, their boat might tip over!

The race is really hard and can take many hours, but the team that goes the fastest and does the best job working together wins the trophy. It's a big honor to win and many people work really hard and practice a lot to try and win.
