Less roll
Noticeably steadier at anchor than a monohull, which is where most of the day is actually spent.
Private & Luxury
Flat, Steady, Shallow
Two hulls means less roll at anchor and a shallower draft into the bays. For anyone who dislikes boats, this is the format that changes their mind.

What the Second Hull Buys
Stability and deck space, mostly. Both matter more on a full day at anchor than on the crossing itself.
Shallow draft
Gets closer into shallow bays and sandbars that a deeper hull has to stand off from.
Deck space
Wide trampolines and a broad aft deck. More usable shade and lounging than the same length of monohull.
Suits
Families, nervous sailors and anyone planning to swim off the boat repeatedly.
