Acknowledgments
There are no hard and fast rules at sea. Sailing is an art and for this reason
the author would like to thank those who shared their art and assistance
with editing and advice during the production of this book.
Those who helped edit the first edition of this book include:
Lock Crowther (multihull designer)
Ian Johnston and Cathy Hawkins (Verbatim - 40ft trimaran)
Paul Nudd (XL2 - 40 ft catamaran)
Grant Telfer (Orient - 71 ft catamaran)
Dean Snow (Trident - 31 ft trailer trimaran)
For the Fernhurst edition there have been many who have given advice,
suggestions and ideas. To the Multihull Yacht Club members who
contacted me, the many multihull designers, builders and sailors whose
ideas I have borrowed, tested and adopted; thank you.
My illustrator, Nigel Allison, worked hard and professionally as he put up
with the continuous changes and reviews. Whenever the wind blew he kept
the office cobwebs from appearing by taking me sailing. Thanks Nigel.
Lastly, and most importantly, my thanks to my partner and co-skipper on
land and sea. Without Catherine this book would never have even started
nor would the adventure be continuing.

Foreword
This book is for people who are, or are contemplating, multihull sailing. There
are many textbooks on the market which detail general seamanship principles.
This is not one of them. This is about catamarans and trimarans and the skills
needed to enjoy and understand them to the utmost. Both racing and cruising
yachts are catered for, as are trailerable 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 Illustrated
started as my personal index of'how toV. It has grown through experience
and by others sharing their knowledge. It is my turn to give some of that back
to my colleagues on the ocean who venture forth in hulls of two or more.
Safe multihull sailing.
Dr Gavin LdSueur
Further editions of multihull Seamanship Illustrated are planned. If you have
any thoughts, suggestions, criticisms or comments then I would love to hear
from you. I can be contacted via the Publisher or at 21-23 Maurice Ave,
Mallacoota 3892, Victoria, Australia.
