The Power of Sail Area-to-Displacement Ratio (SA/D)

The Power of Sail Area-to-Displacement Ratio (SA/D) in Catamaran Design. Welcome to Navel Gazing at Camp David Shorts. I'm your host, Johnathan. In today's short video, we'll uncover "The Power of Sail Area-to-Displacement Ratio (SA/D) in Catamaran Design." Learn how this crucial ratio impacts a catamaran's sailing performance, acceleration, and ability to handle various wind conditions. Discover the secrets to a smoother, faster ride on the high seas. For more in-depth knowledge on this topic, I recommend reading: "The Principles of Yacht Design" by Lars Larsson and Rolf Eliasson, published by McGraw-Hill Education (2000).
