***** 34' GEMINI CATAMARAN FOR SALE *****
This is a Gemini 105Mc, one of the largest catamaran fleets in the world. Sorry to see her go. Before it hits the brokers she is FOR SALE BY OWNER at $10,000 less, for a limited time. And if you buy my one share in WINDOG Inc, you own the company and pay no sales tax.
Hull #698 was built by Tony Smith at Performance Cruising in 2000. The Gemini is no longer made but a fleet of over 1100 was produced from 1980 to 2010. The basic design lives on in the Legacy. WINDOG was one of the first of the Mc version, having an extra 1' of sail area along the leech and redesigned fiberglass molds. The 105Mc has a single mold for both hulls, which adds great rigidity. The added sail was intended to improve performance; I have consistently done 8 knots on a reach with a 25 knot crosswind. She was owned from 2000 to 2003 by Gary Peters of baseball fame and since then by me. She has gone to Key West and the Bahamas and back but the hull is as good as the day it first hit the water. The last seven years have been spent out of the water on a lift or noodling about Sarasota Bay. There are many new parts. The diesel engine has only 1200 hours on it, and the Yamaha less than that. The Captain's log tells all.
