Guest RFW Posted November 19, 2002 Report Share Posted November 19, 2002 "Catamaran Racing for the Nineties" by Rick White and Mary Wells is an excellent book on sailing cats. I got mine at a local chandlers. You could also see Rick's Website http://www.catsailor.com and order it online along with videos. If you are really wanting detailed scientific analysis on sailing see Frank Bethwaite's book High Performance Sailing. While not aimed specifically at catamarans it is an excellent book covering everything from weather patterns to sail shapes to the fastest lines to sail given different wave patterns. You could also have a look at my website: http://www.taipan.asn.au This site is written for Taipan sailors but the Tips page will probably have something to help you out.
