Welcome to Navel Gazing at Camp David Shorts. I'm your host Johnathan. In this video, we're delving into the world of catamarans to uncover the significance of Catamaran Displacement-to-Length Ratio (D/L).

Join us as we explore how the D/L ratio influences a catamaran's capacity to carry loads, fuel efficiency, and its capabilities for long-distance cruising. It's the key to efficient and enjoyable voyages!

For a deeper dive into this topic, consider these reputable references:

"The Multihull Sailor's Bible" by Joseph Neale, International Marine, 1997.

"Catamarans: The Complete Guide for Cruising Sailors" by Gregor Tarjan, International Marine, 2007.
