Responding to the fast growth of the multihull market, this up to date reference work looks at their advantages but also the key differences from monohulls, providing practical guidance on sailing in various circumstances and weather conditions.
Multihulls are the fastest growing sector of the marine market, with growth being evidenced particularly in Europe and the USA, and charter companies growing their multihull fleets. Whilst multihulls have many advantages over monohulls (greater stability, more accommodation space, better styling and shallow draft) they require very different handling, which affects the seamanship required - that is what this book seeks to address. There has been no up to date book on handling multihulls for over 10 years, so this book provides a much needed practical guide to sailing multihulls upwind, downwind, in heavy weather, anchoring, handling under sail and power and manoeuvring at close quarters. It will be welcomed by both experienced multihullers and those contemplating purchasing or chartering these appealing craft. This book is set to be the definitive reference on the subject for years to come.
