A must on any multihull This book contains is a wealth of knowledge and skills that are often specific to multihulls. It covers cruising and racing multi's as well as trailerable's. On more than one occasion we have used it at sea to help us out of a tight spot. The illustrations are great - easy to follow and with a touch of humour. I think there should be a copy on every multihull.. A Good Read Tami I found this book to be invaluable and recommend it to anyone contemplating sailing in multihulls. There'd be a fair number of multihull-specific Internet message boards would be depopulated if people simply read MULTIHULL SEAMANSHIP.Thanks Gavin.
