Catamarans Offshore, chronicles the evolution and achievements of modern offshore catamarans. Rudy Choy, a pioneering naval architect, co-founded the design firm C/S/K with partners Warren Seaman and Alfred Kumalae. The book offers a candid narrative, detailing not only the successes but also the challenges, failures, and rejections faced during the development of these innovative vessels. It combines sailing history, technological advancements, and nautical anecdotes, beginning with the 1947 launch of "Manu Kai," a beach catamaran built by Woody Brown, Kumalae, and Choy. This work provides valuable insights into the early days of offshore catamaran sailing and design.
