Maintenance
Each boat manufactured has been custom-built to meet the special ideas and demands of the owner. The Dragonfly 1200 has been designed for safe bluewater cruising and sailing. The boat accommodates 7 people in 3 cabins and is easy to sail - even singlehanded.
The Dragonfly 1200 occupies no more space than any conventional yacht of the same size in the marina, yet you retain the advantage of the features that a trimaran can give you at sea. Folding even this big trimaran is very easy with help from the standard electrical winches.
Dragonfly 1200 Swing Wing was built between 2000 - 2007. In total 18 boats were built.

The cabin offers the finest Danish furniture design and craftmanshiop. Going into the boat, you will find a nice roomy center cabin with full standing headroom of 1.95 m. On your port side, a well functional galley with good storage, stove and oven, which is covered when not in use.
The roomy dinette area easily seats 8 persons and also be converted into bunks, if needed, offering a total of 7 berths. On the starboard side of the main cabin, we have placed a nice navstation with horizontal surface for better general use. Behind the navseat, the fridge is built into the bulkhead.
Going forward, you will find the spacious toilet/shower room with plenty of lockers. Further forward, the owner's cabin features a very comfortable kingsize V-berth with windows in the hull.
The aft cabin is separate, located back aft, and offers a nice doublebunk and a separate toilet, or, as an alternative, two single bunks with a head between.
The center cockpit is spacious and secure with 2.10 m seats in teakwood and wheel steering. Below the whole cockpit lies the engineering compartment, housing the engine, tanks and other technical devices. Access is very easy for servicing and most importantly, it is isolated from the cabins. The Dragonfly 1200 is for the top of the line cruising as regards comfort in all aspects - quality - and easy handling, even for one person.

(Article in Danish)
To inform and illustrate recommended service, maintenance, and refitting on an older Dragonfly, we have drawn this general information sheet. Rough elements, like strong winds and wave conditions, strong saltwater and UV do have some impact on the boat after a long sailing life.
We strongly recommend servicing and changing vital parts on your boat according to our recommendations. This information overrules any other former information you may have, as the following is based on updated knowledge.
RIGGING Visual check of all cables is still required when changing the rigging. When trailering the boat, we strongly recommend focusing on side stay cables, as these easily bend when stepping the mast. Bended side stay cables near the terminal may cause the side stay cable to break.
On all Dragonflys, please regularly check the forestay cable in the top by the terminal. When furling, the spinnaker halyard may block the forestay, which can cause failure of the forestay.
TRAMOLINES On all Dragonflys, we recommend re-stitching (sewing) along the seems of the trampolines every 6-7 years (in climates with strong UV, every 5 years). Normally, our clients change their trampolines after 10-12 years use.
FLOAT DECK TEFLON PAD RINGS On Dragonflys built after 1989, the white 5 mm Teflon pad rings on the float deck need to be changed every 13-15 years – this is neither critical nor structural. For easy change of these pads/rings, you just bolt off the floats from the wings.
QUICK-LINKS Over the years, Quorning Boats has used the riggings links, so-called Quick-Links, in the Dragonfly production. When replacing these, it is of utmost importance to purchase links of same high quality or similar products carrying same strength (working load). Many products look the same, but do not carry the same strength.
ORDERING PARTS Original parts can be ordered at Quorning Boats at [email protected]
Common spare parts can be shipped within two weeks, whereas special parts and/or custom-made parts usually are served within 6-8 weeks.

IMPORTANT Parts ordered at Quorning Boats Denmark, will be produced in originally designed materials. Should you choose to order from other suppliers, please check that the same kind of materials are used – especially on the waterstays and other rigging parts, where stronger Dyeform cables are needed.

Quick Look: Dragonfly 1200
- By Cw Staff
- Updated: October 17, 2001
The popularity of multihulls among sailors today is nothing short of revolutionary. Forty-two multihulls lined the boat-show docks in Annapolis last October, and the Multihull Demo Days took 1,500 people on test sails. Three catamarans and one tri constitute this years Cruising Multihull category: the Manta 42, the Fountaine Pajot Belize 43, the Catana 472, and the Dragonfly 1200. The prize goes to a Danish-built marvel of engineering: The Dragonfly 1200 trimaran. Folding amas for docking in traditional slips, cruising speeds of 15 knots under power, and Pullman-car elegance in the accomodations all tipped the scales in this boats favor.
As of 2016, the Dragonfly 1200 is still in production ny Dragonfly, with updated models available. Specs are for current models.

Dragonfly 40, dragonfly trimarans for sale in the us.
Dragonfly Trimarans are built in Denmark to extremely high standards by Quorning Boats. The current Dragonfly range extends from the trailerable 25 and 28 footers, up to the larger 32 and 40 foot models. All Dragonfly Trimarans employ their hallmark “swing wing” system for retracting the floats for docking or in the case of the 25 and 28 for easy trailering. One feature of this system is that the floats remain in the vertical orientation, which is an advantage when keeping the boat in a slip because it eliminates the issue of fouling of the outside surfaces of the floats. Another hallmark of Dragonfly trimarans is their attention to detail in the interior design and finish, creating a beautiful comfortable place to spend time inside the boat. If you are looking for a Dragonfly Trimaran for sale, Windcraft Multihulls is a US dealer located in the Southeastern United States. Contact us for more information.

The Dragonfly 1200 is the flagship of the Dragonfly family of folding trimarans. The Dragonfly 1200 Ocean Cruiser was, as it says - designed for safe bluewater cruising and sailing.
The prize goes to a Danish-built marvel of engineering: The Dragonfly 1200 trimaran. Folding amas for docking in traditional slips, cruising speeds of 15 knots under power, and Pullman-car elegance in the accomodations all tipped the scales in this boat s favor.
