Haines Hunter “Trailer Tramp” Trimaran in Shark Bay
Haines Hunter Trailer Tramp Trimaran owner Mike Annear shares the background and following photos with us from a sailing trip to the famous “Shark Bay.” Shark Bay is located in the Gascoyne region of Western Australia and is designated as a World Heritage Site.
Look at the photos and ask yourself, “Can a guy have much more fun than this?”
I am a little envious at the moment. Not too much. Just an itty-bitty little bit. :-)
But seriously, thanks for these photos Mike. (Maybe Mike will share a more extensive write-up of his sailing adventure with us in the near future).

Hi Joe,
I am from Western Australia and, at 50, have just taken up sailing.
About a year ago I bought a 1980′s Haines Hunter “Trailer Tramp” (Farrier design). You probably know it’s a 20-foot trailerable, fiberglass day-sail tri.
I just spent a week sailing it around “Shark Bay” here in Western Australia and would like to share some photos with others on smalltrimarans.com
Shark Bay is a stunning place, well suited for shallow draft cruising.
Kind Regards,
Mike Annear
