Dick Newick
Richard "Dick" Newick (May 9, 1926 in Hackensack, New Jersey – August 28, 2013 in Sebastopol, California) more frequently known as Dick Newick was a multihull sailboat designer. He grew up in Rutherford, New Jersey. At 10 he built two kayaks with his father and brother. At 12 he designed and built two more by himself. At 14 he sold kayak plans to a schoolmate for $5.

Trimaran
A trimaran (or double-outrigger) is a multihull boat that comprises a main hull and two smaller outrigger hulls (or "floats") which are attached to the main hull with lateral beams. Most modern trimarans are sailing yachts designed for recreation or racing; others are ferries or warships. They originated from the traditional double-outrigger hulls of the Austronesian cultures of Maritime Southeast Asia; particularly in the Philippines and Eastern Indonesia, where it remains the dominant hull design of traditional fishing boats. Double-outriggers are derived from the older catamaran and single-outrigger boat designs. Terminology The word "trimaran" is a portmanteau of "tri" and "(cata)maran", a term that is thought to have been coined by Victor Tchetchet, a pioneering, Ukrainian-born modern multihull designer. Trimarans consist of a main hull connected to outrigger floats on either side by a crossbeam, wing, or other form of superstructure—the traditional Polynesian terms f ...

Trice (trimaran)
''Trice'' was a 36-foot trimaran sailboat designed by Dick Newick, one the earliest designs in his career (following the '' Trine''), which contributed substantially to the revival of multihull vessels from the 1960s to the late 20th century. In 1964, Newick entered ''Trice'' in the annual Newport, Rhode Island to Bermuda race to evaluate its relative speed. Media was critical, with one editorial calling it "unsafe on any sea". Newick waited until the traditional, much larger monohulls boats had set off then proceeded to beat all but two of them.
