You guys got me thinking: Use a Lotus frame instead of crossbeams on a
performance cat. After all, the Lotus frame supports loads at 4 corners
(hulls) and supports a heavy engine at one end (mast compression load),
and was conceived to be very stiff for its weight, if I am not mistaken.
Hmm... Sounds like a trimaran with a tiny elevated central hull. Or is
it a Catamaran with a central "pod"? (I just wanted to say that to save
others the trouble.)
