There seem to be a lot of books on Catamaran sailing in German, and I have seen some with lots of helpful pictures. Since German is the only modern language I read without difficulty, I am wondering which of these are particularly good. Is there anybody who knows these books and can make recommendations?

Dear Jonathan

The best book of these for the catsailor is in my opinion the ...

Katamarane, Das Buch. von Helge Sach, Andreas Kling. Dsv-Verlag (2002)
http://www.amazon.de/exec/obidos/AS.../sr=1-1/ref=sr_1_0_1/302-5694732-2727224

It gives you all the information about modern catsailing including racing and spinnacker handling.

The other books are more for the beginners.
