The Pitchpoling Myth
Even the last generation of Prouts were wider than earlier versions. So I say it again. It is a myth to say that just making a catamaran wider means it will pitchpole. There are many more important factors that determine whether a boat will pitchpole or not than just the hull spacing. Woods Designs offer multihull designs, power catamarans and ...

Hull Hydrodynamics and Design
2.2.1 Pitch stability (Porpoising and Pitchpole) As mentioned in chapter 1, pitch stability tends to be a problem for sailing catamarans due to the elevated thrust position and the fine demi-hull bows which offer very little buoyancy and planing effects to resist a forward pitching motion.
how common is pitchpoling?
Specifically to the 35-45 foot range catamarans. I have been told the larger ones don't have much of an issue. I am assuming the captain is competent and the boat is one of the production cats (FP, ... I read about one backwards pitchpole on a catamaran lying to a parachute sea anchor.

Tacking and jibing a catamaran
To right a pitchpole catamaran, move the crew to the side of the boat that is facing up. Make sure that all crew members are facing in the same direction and ready to right the boat. Once the crew is in position, they should use their body weight to push the boat over while also swimming. With enough effort, the boat should eventually tip back ...

What does it take to pitchpole a boat?
On the Hobie, I also had a high center of thrust (thrust centered high on the sail). Fortunately the Hobie was design to take a pitchpole. No loose running gear, no motor, and no electronics. Even then a pitchpole on a catamaran is a WILD ride. On a power boat, it would be a nightmare! Thanks for bringing back some great memories. TerryMSU

Watch on. This video was filmed off La Grande Motte (France), during a training session of Xavier Maquaire, aboard his Bénéteau Figaro II. Xavier Macaire was the skipper and Yves Le Blevec his guest onboard. They were sailing 15 knots, when they decided to launch the spinnaker. The boat nosedived in less than two seconds.
The Pitchpoling Myth
About a 2.6:1 safety margin. A 16x20 boat has a 16 ft righting arm and a 25.6 ft diag arm. A 1.6:1 safety margin. If the rig remains the same you get a 20% increase in pitchpole resistance, and double the lateral capsize resistance. However, the extra separation also doubles the rotational inertia around the lee bow.

The Pitchpole
The Pitchpole is everyone's favourite type of capsize for a catamaran. When you overload the bows of the boat, either from crew weight too far forward, too much power in the rig or turning downwind without easing sail, the bows of the boat are forced under the water which can cause the boat to flip. This is a type of capsize called the pitchpole. When the bows go in, the boat suddenly slows ...
