Abstract (en)

A catamaran comprises a support frame 2 to which are connected a pair of planing hulls 1. These hulls do not incorporate any keel or rudder members, but instead a keel and rudder are each connected centrally of the frame 2. In this case the keel 8 is in the form of a skeg on which is mounted a rudder 9 as part of a single skeg rudder assembly 7. This unit is positioned well to the rear of the mast base mounting 3.
