    Just wondering if anyone has reliable data on 34-42 ft multi-hull
    speeds? I'm not interested in boats that are built for the super-rich
    or for racers - I'm interested in finding a book or some other source
    that lists (honestly) the speeds of various cruising catamarans
    (SeaWind, Prout, Gemini, Corsair, etc.) in various conditions.

    It seems that the dealers of these boats depend on anecdotal evidence
    to assure me that their boat really does sail at 22 knots in 3 knots
    of wind - I'm skeptical.

    Thanks,
    Robert
