Worth knowing
ADH Inotec; cover, cost and conditions
ADH Inotec is a French boatbuilder founded in 1996 by Vianney Ancelin, Bertrand Desjoyeaux and Denis Herpe. Its name is tied to the Diam 24, a trimaran drawn by the design office VPLP and built by the yard as a strict one-design class. One-design means every boat is identical, so crew work and tactics decide the result. Construction is foam-cored glassfibre with carbon reinforcement. The Diam 24 is no cruiser; it is meant for inshore racing with a small crew. From 2015 it served as the boat of the Tour de France à la voile, a racing series along the French coast. Its three slender hulls, spread almost as wide as the boat is long, make it easy to recognise.
Our model records list one design from ADH Inotec, the Diam 24. It is entered as a trimaran of 7.25 metres with build years from 2011 to 2020, so it does not reach into the most recent model years. Published sources give 2014 as the start of production, while our records begin earlier. The same sources quote a beam of 5.62 metres and a draught of 1.50 metres. The boat weighs around 450 kilograms and sets about 33 square metres of sail upwind. That combination of low weight and large sail area is why the Diam 24 has a name as a quick racing boat. No other lines from the yard appear in our data.
A one-design trimaran is raced hard, so a used Diam 24 needs a close look. Check the beams and their joints to the floats, since loads concentrate there, and look for soft spots in the foam-cored laminate around fittings. Carbon parts should be inspected for impact damage, which can hide under paint. Sails wear quickly on a boat that races every weekend, so their age matters. Many owners trail the boat from event to event, which makes a sound trailer and a smooth rigging routine part of the package. The class rules keep the boats alike, so a well kept example holds its use for years.
