After sailing over 20,000 nm on our monohull ForTuna and 7,000 nm on the catamaran Zambezi, weāre finally ready to share our honest opinion on the never-ending Catamaran vs Monohull debate. For this review, we compared both boats in 4 key aspects: 1ļøā£ Sailing performance on long passages A tie. The cat is faster, but needs way more wind to move. Moreover when sailing close-hauled, the main dominates and maneuvering in higher winds often requires the engineās help. 2ļøā£ Sailing comfort This one surprised us. Catamarans are shockingly uncomfortable once the sea starts moving. Each wave hits twice, the hulls slam, the rig creaks, and our bodies couldnāt predict the motion. On a monohull, the movement is linear, predictable and our stomachs are much happier. 3ļøā£ Living comfort The cat wins. The space, light, and āupper-level livingā are unbeatable. But youāll also find it hard to hide from the sun. 4ļøā£ Maintenance Another tie. Double the hulls, double the engines, double the systems. Whatever you spend or fix on a monohull, double it for a catamaran. That said, redundancy can be a plus offshore. Our verdict: Weāre staying on a monohull. The living space of a catamaran is tempting, but the sailing comfort just isnāt for us. We plan to keep crossing oceans and weād rather live smaller than be seasick. Whatās your take on the cat vs mono debate? Stay salty, Greta & Michael š #sailing #sailboat #boatlifeāļø #liveaboard #sailboatlife #sailingadventure
