SOLUTIONS MULTIHULL2018 ANNUAL EDITION VICTORIA 67 A regal xxxx performance Finding Balance The importance of compromise Rendezvous with Paradise Diving in the SOCIAL RALLIES MAKE WAVES DEEP END NOVICE SAILORS TAKE THE PLUNGE THE OFFICIAL MAGAZINE OF ASIA PACIFIC’S LEADING MULTIHULL SPECIALIST FEATURE STORY Sailing AT ITS LEVEL BEST Monohull or Multihull? Mono or multi? What’s the best boat for you? Caroline Strainig delves into just a few of the reasons why multihulls are becoming the vessel of choice for more and more boat owners. MHS MAGAZINE X FEATURE STORY FEATURE STORY uying a boat is something that’s “One delivery skipper I know loves telling a very personal decision with everything a balancing act and the story of how a rose bowl left on the compromise depending on your wish Blist. However, a multihull comes out on top in table survived an offshore voyage intact.” many categories. Here are just a few reasons why multihulls continue to dominate today’s cruising market. DRAUGHT Most people know that multihulls draw less than most monohulls, but what does this mean in real terms? A multihull’s shallower draught enables you to anchor closer in to shore in more sheltered places, which can make for a safer and more peaceful night. In strong winds, I love to motor in past the monohulls, find a nice spot in the lee of an island, drop anchor and then sit back and relax as I watch the monohull people anchored further out bouncing up and down. I know it’s mean, but I just cannot help it. Multihulls can also access other places that a deep-keel monohull cannot, such as the shallow entrance to a coral lagoon. You can even beach some multihulls that have been designed to do so, which is a bonus for maintenance. Being able to anchor closer in or beach your boat also means you don’t always need to take a dinghy if you want to go ashore. Some cat owners I know love beaching their boats and letting their children run wild on the beach nearby while they relax on deck. It’s a win-win for everyone. The children can make as much noise as they want, and the adults can relax in peace while still able to keep an eye on their offspring. SPACE AND COMFORT Over the years manufacturers of all types of vessels have responded to the ever-increasing demand for “space, space, and more space,” but monohulls still lag far behind multihulls in this respect because of the bigger building platform multihulls offer. You just cannot go past a multihull if you want the on-water equivalent of an apartment. In fact, one couple who bought a Fusion 40 from Multihull Solutions, Gary and Joey SPEED FLATTER Top: A cat Angove, were going to buy a waterfront unit As we saw in the America’s Cup, sailing a It’s an irrefutable fact of life that multihulls comes out overlooking the marina where they kept the racing multihull can be exhilarating, sailing sail flatter than monohulls.

Most rallies generally follow a relaxed formula that combines Tlaidback cruising and socialising in some of the world’s most beautiful cruising grounds. Ranging from a weekend jaunt to four-month voyages, many rallies are open to both power and sailboats and provide unforgettable experiences that see participants return year after year. Each rally is as unique as the main reasons its members sign up: some want to explore new destinations in the security of an accompanying fleet, while others are keen to meet new cruising friends, exchange stories and tips, or boost their racing experience with some friendly competition. Some events are even supported by specific boating manufacturers and suppliers with representatives on hand throughout the event, providing a valuable opportunity for owners to learn more about the different features of their boat and gain advice on maximising performance as well as tips on maintenance and repairs.

Photo from ABRW Facebook Page Meetings Cancelled until Further Notice 2 Monthly Events (Sept) 6 Sept Westerly Trophy 19th-20th Sept Bribie Cup & Coolaroo Trophy 19th-20th Sept Cruise to the Brisbane River 27th Sept SAGS Commodore’s Comment By Bruce Wieland Dear multihull sailors, I do hope that you have remained healthy during the lockdown no matter where in the world you are. I empathize with anyone who has caught the Covid-19 virus and wish you a full recovery. It has been a difficult time for many, both socially and financially. Lyn and I have been fortunate to make it through the lockdown (so far) without any adverse effects despite closing our business for two months. As for MYCQ, it was a difficult decision at the time to cancel the 2020 Brisbane to Gladstone Race, but in hindsight we would never have been allowed to run the race. One positive is that there are several new big multihulls on the scene in Australia, so the 2021 B2G may just be spectacular! Other than the B2G, the lockdown has had little effect on our program as we deliberately kept our calendar sparce during the winter. RQYS cancelled the Brisbane to Hamilton Island Race, but the Brisbane to Keppel Race did happen, although there were no multihulls entered. While Airlie Beach Race week has been run and won, Hammo and Magnetic Island Race weeks were also cancelled. Congratulations to Dale Mitchell and crew who won on OMR with the ORMA 60 (great to see it going well!), and Elizabeth Williams who won the Passage Series on Tyee 111.
