Split Decision Featured in Sailing Magazine



Our new marina has a lending library in the clubhouse. The Admiral is pretty excited about this. One of her favorite things to do on the boat is reading trashy novels. A lot of marinas have libraries where you can exchange whatever book you've finished for a new one.

Despite my english degree, I'm not so much into novels. I do however enjoy reading old sailing magazines people leave behind. I picked up a few when I was on the boat last week. Imagine my surprise when I saw a picture of my boat in the February issue of "Sailing" magazine. There is an ad for Gemini Catamarans on page 12. My boat is the second closest boat in the raft-up picture near the bottom left hand corner.

I have an original copy of the picture hanging on the wall in my boat. Click on the image above for a larger picture of the ad.

Sharp eye. Did you get any sailing in?

Differentiating my boat from the others is sort of like playing the game in the Sunday comics where you have to pick out the differences between two nearly identical pictures. There are several differences between my boat and the others in the picture, but the dead give away are the cockpit cushions.

No sailing, and now my rudder cages are in the shop. One of them is being repaired. Don't ask. Hopefully I'll have them back Memorial day.
