Overview
“A ‘must read’ for anyone with multihull ambitions.” (Modern Boating) “Could literally be life saving. Anyone preparing to build, buy or just sail a multihull would be advised to read this book.” (Multihull World) “Le Sueur conveys eloquently why multihulls are special. His ‘Seamanship Rules’ should be learnt by heart.” (Yachting Monthly) “When I had finished reading it, I started to understand how I should be thinking about handling my multihull, rather than just following general written advice. I started to think about the vessel and its interaction with the forces around it: how one action, say on sail trim, could change the dynamic on another, say dagger board loading. This led to a greater understanding of load dynamics in developing conditions, ensured a more comfortable ride on board and resulted in less wear and tear on gear. This new edition of Le Sueur’s book must be a recommended read for anyone on the multihull journey.” (Royal Cruising Club)
An A-Z of seamanship skills needed to understand and enjoy catamarans and trimarans to their utmost. Racing and cruising yachts are catered for, as are trailer-able multihulls. Derived from the author's own extensive experience, built on through others sharing their knowledge and illustrated with delightful line drawings.
