The author of the publication made an excellent and successful effort to amplify and gather in a single volume all the scattered information on those boats.

It will definitely assist people in determining whether the multihull is the right choice for them.

The publication provides an extremely thorough survey of the modern multihull boats. The amount of the material included in the book, and its quality, make it equally valuable to the strangers to such boats, and to the professionals in cruising the multihulls. We enthusiastically recommend it to both categories of boaters. Though it was written and released some time ago, the actual physics of sailing the multihull boat remains unchanged.
In addition, there have no changes been made in the construction materials happen during the past decades - same glass, carbon, epoxy, wood, foam and polyester are being used today. That is why we insist that this book did not lose even a smallest part of its topicality and highly recommend it for use.
