Sailing Catamarans: Sailing Catamarans make great cruising and bluewater boats.
Although the principles of sailing are the same for both catamarans and monohulls, there are some enormous advantages to safety and comfort for sailing catamarans.
One of the biggest developments over the last decade in the yachting arena has been the rise of the super catamaran: a multihull over 100 feet in length. The emergence of the super or mega catamaran is a relatively new event affiliated to the rise of the mega or super yacht, used to describe the huge growth in luxurious, large motor yachts on the French Riviera, Caribbean and Floridian Coast.
Power Catamarans: A recent development in recreational catamaran history and design has been the introduction of the power catamaran. The 'power' version incorporates the best features of a motor yacht and combines it with the characteristics of a multihull. The hulls below the waterline are typically planning hulls instead of their sailing counterparts that are standard displacement.
Usually, the power catamaran is devoid of any sailing apparatus as demonstrated by some of the top-selling models like the CUMBERLAND 47LC, Lagoon Power 43, Leopard 47PC and the Journey 47LRC to mention a few.
Commercial vessels have utilized the power catamaran’s advantages for many years:
Since the 1970s, the length of catamarans increased from some 20 m to catamarans up to 115 m long. The High-speed Stena HSS is the world's largest fast ferry, traveling at a speed of 46 mph, although it is capable of doing over 70 mph. This is not new technology.
