Review of current practices in design, construction, performance, and habitability of all types of multihull sailing craft, including several comparisons with monohull craft; it is noted early postwar development was centered mostly around day sailers and racers, but during past 10 yr numbers of cruising multihulls have been built; many designs also were prepared by amateurs, resulting in numerous failures both in structure and performance; however, there have been successful, long-distance ocean passages, in both trimaran and catamaran.
