# ⛵ Peterwolf's Catamaran Sail Yacht (Fabric 26.3)
Peterwolf's Catamaran Sail Yacht introduces an authentic, oceanic cruising catamaran to Minecraft Fabric 26.3, built as a dedicated extension for the Peterwolf's Wind & Sails nautical ecosystem.
Measuring 8 blocks long (8.0 m) and 5 blocks wide (5.0 m), this vessel features a multi-hull wave-piercing design, an open panoramic cockpit, a foredeck trampoline net, a central saloon with sleeping berths, twin independent rudders, and high-stability catamaran aerodynamics!

🌟 Key Features
1. Authentic Twin-Hull Architecture (Catamaran Multi-hull)
- Slender Twin Hulls: Two fine wave-piercing hulls (Port & Starboard) spaced 5 blocks apart, allowing ocean water to flow freely and naturally underneath the bridgedeck and foredeck trampoline.
- Sugar-Scoop Transom Steps: Low-profile swim platforms at the stern of each hull just above the waterline, making it effortless to climb back aboard directly from the water after a swim.
2. Walkable Foredeck Trampoline
- Suspended Marine Netting: Stretched between the two bows forward of the saloon (Z ∈ [-58, -20]), players can walk, lounge, and enjoy the open ocean breeze while underway.
- Central Bowsprit & Compression Beam: Solid teak-capped longitudinal walkway leading all the way to the forward forestay crossbeam.
3. Panoramic Saloon Cabin & Sleeping Berths
- 360^∘ Tinted Glass Deckhouse: Spacious central cabin with wrap-around panoramic windows.
- Interior Double Berth: Includes a mahogany bed frame, striped mattress, and pillows. Right-clicking the saloon companionway door allows players to rest and sleep through the night or thunderstorms, resetting insomnia and clearing foul weather.
4. Open-Air Cockpit with Ship's Wheel
- Sunny Panoramic Helm: Wide, unencumbered cockpit sole with comfortable L-shaped lounge seating.
- Authentic Helm Pedestal & Wheel: Features a classic ship's steering wheel that rotates proportionally to rudder deflection. Helmsmen stand upright behind the wheel in an authentic standing posture.
5. High-Stability Catamaran Aerodynamics (via pw_wind_n_sails)
- Stiff Form Stability (Low Heel): Multi-hull geometry provides immense initial stability — aerodynamic heel is capped at a gentle 7^∘, creating a steady, flat walking deck even in high winds.
- Fast Hull Speed: Reduced wave-making resistance translates into rapid acceleration and high top speeds under full canvas.
- Tapered Square-Top Mainsail: Realistic 6-tier mainsail tapering from 64 units along the boom down to a 14-unit square-top headboard at the masthead, complete with lazy-jack ties when furled.
- Upright Furling Jib: Realistic Bermuda headsail rotating along the inclined forestay axis, keeping its luff steady on the wire while swinging its clew out to leeward.
6. Shallow-Water Cruising (Shallow Draft)
- While deep-keel monohulls demand 2–3 blocks of water depth, this catamaran draws only 1 block of water. Sail through shallow coastal reefs, lagoons, rivers, and beach right onto sandy shores!
7. Dual Independent Rudders
- Two synchronized, independent rudders mounted directly under each hull at the stern (X = ± 32). Each rudder turns in place around its own stock, delivering pinpoint steering control without unwanted orbital swing.
8. Realistic Wind Drift & Mooring
- Natural Leeway Drift: When sails are furled, water resistance brings the boat to rest while leaving a gentle, realistic windward drift (∼ 0.8–1.2 knots in a fresh breeze) without runaway acceleration.
- 6 Precision Mooring Cleats: 3 cleats per hull (Bow, Midship, Stern) with interactive black wireframe targeting, 3D rope knots, dock post tethering, and seamless anchor integration.
