Catamaran
A catamaran (from
Tamil kattu "to tie" and maram "wood, tree") is a type of
boat or
ship consisting of two
hulls joined by a frame. Catamarans can be sail- or engine-powered. The catamaran was the invention of the
paravas, a fishing community in the southern coast of
Tamil Nadu, India. Catamarans were used by the ancient Tamil
Chola dynasty as early as the 5th century AD for moving their fleets to conquer such Southeast Asian regions as
Burma,
Indonesia and
Malaysia.
