This is the Information Sailors and Prospective Boat Builders Want to Know About Today's Production and Homebuilt Small Trimarans. Imagine being able to sit down with experts for many of the new, most popular, and frequently sought after production or homebuilt small trimarans in the world today. Well, now you can Are you ready for a behind-the-scenes look at some of your favorite small trimarans? This book includes the following information: 1) Newly published pictures and tips about these super fast, ultra-fun sailboats 2) What small trimaran might be best for you to buy or build 3) The challenges to building your own and (how to overcome them) 4) The purpose behind each featured design 5) What makes each sailboat unique compared to others in the market 6) How fast these boats go 7) How easy (or challenging) they are to sail 8) The biggest benefits associated with each boat 9) Unique insights and stories from designers There isn't a lot of "technical" information within these pages. Some information might fit into a technical section (if one were included), but there isn t any because that wasn't a goal. It should be fairly easy to go on the Internet and uncover the technical data for any of these boats if you really want it. The simple goal of this particular work was to have those who are most knowledgeable discuss the stories and insights behind the sailboats they personally know -- in some cases, better than anyone else in the world. The small trimarans featured in this book fall into 2 categories: Production Sailboats (which I also sometimes refer to as "commercial" or "commercially produced" boats) & Self-Built Sailboats. This is really the only "logical" arrangement of order. There is one exception -- the Trinado model. Featured boats include: The Magnum 18, 21 & 21S Trimarans ... The Windrider 16, 17 & Rave (Hydrofoil) Trimarans ... The Weta Beach Trimaran The Wa'apa & Tamanu Small Trimaran Sailing Canoes ... The Fast 17, A18T, A21, Cardiff 21 & Z65 Small Trimarans ... The Seaclipper 10 & 16 Trimarans The Scarab Small Trimaran Models ... The Discovery 20 Small Trimaran... The Warren 23' & 27' Small Trimarans ... The L7, Multi 23 & Beach Tri 22 Small Trimarans ... The KH 16', Spitfire 20' & KH 23' Small Trimarans... The Trinado Trimaran... The Tremolino Trimaran... The K24T Small Cabin Cruiser Trimaran Plus -- An Interview about Wooden Boatbuilding with Chuck Leinweber (publisher of Duckworks Magazine). Interviews featuring production models are in the front. And the small trimaran models most often "self-built" at home by a do-it-yourselfer follow. This order of arrangement isn't meant to convey some boats are "better" than others. Such assessment is purely subjective. It ll be shaped most often by what an individual wants in a boat at any given time. In my opinion, all of boats talked about in these pages are fun, fast and desirable.

The modern cruising catamaran has arrived The arguments are over and the verdict is in--cruising catamarans comprise a rapidly growing percentage of the cruising fleet worldwide. Their advantages of space, stability, speed, and handling under power are truly compelling, and modern cats are every bit as reliable as monohulls. This long overdue, in-depth guide will help you choose and cruise the right catamaran for your needs. “An authoritative guide for novices and experienced sailors; the best book written on the subjects since the early 1990s.”--“Trimaran” Jim Brown, renowned multihull designer “In Catamarans, Gregor Tarjan shares his enthusiasm for yachts with two hulls, based on years of sailing all types. An excellent introduction.”--Dick Newick, legendary catamaran and trimaran designer “If you are contemplating spending hundreds of thousands of dollars on a cruising catamaran, the small price of this book is probably the best investment you could possibly start with.”--from the Foreword by Charles K. Chiodi, publisher of Multihulls Magazine

This is an A-Z of seamanship skills for multihull sailors. There are many textbooks on the market which detail general seamanship principles. This is not one of them. Multihull Seamanship is about sea-going catamarans and trimarans and the skills needed to understand and enjoy them to their utmost. Both racing and cruising yachts are catered for, as are trailer-able multihulls. Seamanship is not a black and white skill. It is an evolution of knowledge; a building of information through experiment, thought and experience. There is no definitive word on an evolving skill. Multihull Seamanship started as Dr Gavin Le Sueur's personal index of 'how-to's. It has grown through experience and others sharing their knowledge. It should be on the book shelf of every catamaran and trimaran. This book is for people who are already multihull sailors, or for those who are contemplating multihull sailing. It has served this community for over 20 years and this second edition is fully updated. It is illustrated with delightful line drawings by Nigel Allison.

The aim and scope of this book primarily deals with conceptual design of sea-going marine vessels. While there are a few books on similar topics available to the reader, this book takes a different approach to address the developments of many different types of vessels. Of significant interest would be the estimation of principal parameters of such as vessels and the various coefficients required for design purposes. These parameters are obviously not readily available without carrying out an extensive search and background study. Hopefully, this textbook may be of relevance to designers and career naval architects who need a reference to initiate the design process.

There has been tremendous growth in the development of advanced marine vehicles over the last few decades and many of these developments have been presented at the International High Performance Marine Vehicles Conference held annually since 1997 in Shanghai, China. This comprehensive first volume covers high speed monohulls, multihulls, hydrofoil craft, air cavity craft and wing-in-ground effect craft. The papers cover a wide variety of hullforms, including deep-V hulls, stepped hulls, axe-bow hullforms, trimarans and pentamarans, foil assisted catamarans and air-lubrication craft. All aspects of design, including resistance, powering, seakeeping and maneuvering performance of these vessels, are covered through theoretical, experimental and numerical investigations.
