>>946344You can easily cruise the Caribbean in a monohull.
The only advantage to shallow draft is when it comes to docking and beaching.
Otherwise if you run aground in a monohull you would have run aground in a catamaran 20 feet later.
Should be checking your charts and keeping an eye out anyway.
You would prefer the better sea motion of a monohull when you get to the lesser Antilles because it can get really rough between islands.
