Best Sailing & Catamaran books
If you are like us, you probably have a library bookshelf dedicated just for sailing and catamarans publications. Our catamaran book collection started as an obsession and has now grown to over 550 volumes. In fact when Gregor Tarjan – founder of Aeroyacht discovered that there was no updated modern book on catamarans, he wrote his own. To be more precise he wrote two books which have become the industry reference for all things cruising catamarans:
REFERENCE BOOK: “CATAMARANS, The Complete Guide for Cruising Sailors”
DREAM BOOK: “CATAMARANS, Tomorrow’s Superyachts”
Soon to be released will be Gregor Tarjan’s refreshed first volume ” CATAMARANS, The Complete Guide for Cruising Sailors”
