multi-hulls?

Bruce,
While I don''t want to cast any aspersions on any particular cat, I will tell you that our original boat was a 36'' powered by 2 9.9 hp outboard engines. It was a galley down design. Because it was a northern boat, the 12 volt reefer had virtually no insulation and no way to install any. Consequently, the compressor ran almost 24/7 and ate power like you wouldn''t believe. We also became increasingly unhappy with the outboards, as they did not have the oomph we occasionally needed. Finally, my husband, the primary chef in the family, felt claustrophobic in the galley (I didn''t mind it). The punchline to all this? We also bought a Manta. How do you like it?
