HH44: Built for Performance (Episode 3)

A true performance sailboat needs more than just great design. It requires special building techniques that maximize stiffness and minimizes weight. This is what allows our HH Catamarans to sail in incredibly light air or to push the boat hard in heavy air. But don't try this with an ordinary cruising catamaran. You need a boat built for this type of sailing where no expense has been spared in strengthening and reinforcing the structure, daggerboards, mast and rigging to handle the loads associated with a true performance catamaran. Welcome to cruising with Performance, Luxury and Carbon Construction. Welcome to "Yachting Evolved."
