IMM is a mixture of summer-trip and a family-friendly boat meet for multihull sailors. It's held in the end of July every odd year. The event is hosted by the national multihull-federations in Norway, Sweden, Denmark and Germany.

The first IMM in 1977 gathered about 25 boats, and have so far had it’s record-breaking 120 boat’s on Rügen / Germany in 1995.

The participants are all from regular cruising boats to hardcore-racers and trailer-boats. We have had the pleasure to welcome multihull sailors from Finland, Latvia, Holland, France, Belgium and Great Britain.
