► Full article in MW194: https://www.multihulls-world.com/information-catamaran-charter/caribbean/saint-lucia-a-stopover-not-to-be-missed-saint-lucia ► For a long time, the organizers of the ARC were faced with difficulties regarding the reception of multihulls: in a port, the latter obviously take up more space than the monohulls... In the end, the general success of this transatlantic -supervised rally and the ever more pressing demand from owners of catamarans and trimarans led the World Cruising Club to organize a second rally – the ARC + –, then a third – the ARC January. As a result, since the pressure on marinas has subsided, there have been more multihulls every year: there were 33 at the start of the ARC "historic canal" in 2022, 37 last year and 44 this year - we have them found in Saint Lucia in the Rodney Bay marina! ► Become a FREE SUBSCRIBER to Multihulls World's YouTube page now - https://www.youtube.com/c/MultihullsWorld ► Log on to our website to discover over 500 multihulls tests!

Set Sail on Serenity: A Catamaran Adventure Through Croatia's Paradise Croatia, a jewel nestled in the Adriatic Sea, beckons with its turquoise waters, ancient cities, and endless charm. But what if you could experience it all at your own pace, the rhythm of the waves your only guide? Enter the magic of catamaran sailing – a luxurious and liberating way to explore Croatia's hidden coves and vibrant coastline. Why Catamaran? Catamarans, with their twin hulls, offer unparalleled stability and spacious decks. Imagine waking up to a sunrise over a calm bay, the gentle rocking of the boat your lullaby. Picture yourself lounging on the expansive nets, sun-kissed and carefree, as the crystal-clear water beckons for a swim. Catamarans provide ample space for relaxation, while also allowing you to navigate shallow bays inaccessible to larger yachts. Croatia's Alluring Islands Await Croatia boasts over 1,200 islands, each with its own unique personality. Your catamaran adventure can be completely customized, allowing you to island-hop at your leisure. Explore the bustling port town of Hvar, known for its nightlife and elegant harbor. Immerse yourself in history at Korčula, a medieval town said to be the birthplace of Marco Polo. Discover the serenity of Vis, a haven for nature lovers with hidden beaches and secluded coves. Beyond the Islands: Cultural Gems and Culinary Delights Croatia's mainland is equally captivating. Sail into Split, a vibrant city boasting a UNESCO-protected Diocletian's Palace at its heart. Dubrovnik, the "Pearl of the Adriatic," will mesmerize you with its ancient walls and charming squares. As you explore each port, indulge in Croatia's rich culinary scene. Savor fresh seafood, sip on local wines, and savor the flavors of the Mediterranean. Your Perfect Croatian Escape Whether you're a seasoned sailor or a landlubber seeking a unique adventure, a catamaran cruise in Croatia promises an unforgettable experience. Imagine days spent sailing the turquoise waters, afternoons exploring charming towns, and evenings spent under starlit skies. Croatia awaits, and a catamaran is the perfect vessel to unlock its magic. Ready to set sail? Do some research on catamaran charters in Croatia.

For a review that explains how the Velodyne Martinin 1.5 works: http://features.boats.com/boat-content/2013/03/the-velodyne-martini-1-5-active-suspension-on-a-boat/ For more videos from the Miami Boat Show, visit www.boats.com. The Velodyne Martini 1.5 was the wackiest, and most technically impressive, thing I saw at this year's Miami International Boat Show. In a nutshell, the Martini 1.5—so-named because it will keep your drink from sloshing—is a pontoon boat with active suspension. The system is the creation of Velodyne founder David Hall and a team of very enthusiastic engineers, some of whom were at Miami and gave me a demo ride on the boat. Hall and the Velodyne name may be familiar to audiophiles, as he got his start in 1983 with a patented, accelerometer-based High Gain Servo System to control sub-woofer cone movement. The company, which is based on the fringe of Silicon Valley near Morgan Hill, California, is still in the speaker business and has also developed the Velodyne LiDAR system used for 3D mapping. At Miami, one of the engineers explained that the Martini 1.5 is based on the same premise as their original speaker, "but instead of measuring and reacting to the movement of the speaker cone, we are reacting to the movement of the boat deck to cancel out the action of the waves."
