A catamaran has two hulls that are parallel to one another. Some catamarans are wind driven using sails and others are powered by engines.
A catamaran has two hulls
Smooth ride
A catamaran hull is one having either dual hulls or a main hull and secondary hull (three hulls is a trimaran). Like an outrigger canoe, having a dual base in the water means that a catamaran is usually more stable than a single hull. The reduction in the "roll" of the hull can result in a smoother ride.
A catamaran is a boat with two hulls connected over the water. This design is very stable compared to single hull.

It has nothing to do with any animal; 'cat' is short for 'catamaran' which is best known in its form of a double-hull sailing boat. The catamaran ferries are popular for their combination of stability and speed.

There are many places where a person can learn how to pilot a catamaran sail boat. A person could read a book on the subject about catamaran sailing. Also, the internet has many sites dedicated to catamaran sailing where someone could learn how to operate one.
Catamaran, a boat with two small hulls to have less drag in the more water, so it can go faster than a boat with one big hull in the water.
Sure. However they are more stable then monohulls so you get less side to side rocking. But if you get seasick on a single hull boat, you'll probably be only be slightly better on a multihull.
