Full SAILBOAT TOUR [$68,000 Cozy Catamaran 33.5', Solo Sailed, Can Anchor ANYWHERE!!!]

Published 2024-05-26
Welcome to "Windward Express"! A 1997 Gemini 105M tiny catamaran, with an 18" draft! Able to anchor pretty much anywhere, or even be beached! These types of boats are special because of how small they are, yet how much interior space they offer, and where you can call home thanks to their retractable centerboards and rudders.

After the full tour outside & inside this cool boat for an in depth interview with the boats owner. He interesting story of how and why get bought this boat and sailed/motored it all the way to Saint John's is well worth a listen.

Hello & welcome! I'm Daniel aka "Adventureman Dan." I've been living on the edge, from one adventure to another for the past nine years. Stating in Central California with my first GoPro, through SoCal, Baja, New Zealand, Australia, South Africa, Alaska and throughout the whole USA. But for the past five years on my sailboat "Adventureborne" I'm open to unlimited possibilities of where I can go, and what I can do!

    Man, I have to get my but out there. That freedom and access to fishing, surfing and living naturally. Goals

    Heโ€™s got the great freedom and flexibility of a mobile home on water while going to college! There are so many other people who would love to be in his situation. Thanks for highlighting the Gemini, a catamaran that can be Solo Sailed.
  • Thank you so much for this video! i didn't know how accessible this boat type was and its everything i have been looking for!
  • @JoelGlidden43
    I really appreciate the way you structured this video. Well done!
  • Thanks for making this video Dan! I have an older 30ft Catamaran (33.4inch draft) in Australia. I bought it last year when I was 24 for around the same price point and I think itโ€™s the best thing Iโ€™ve ever done. Super cool to see the similarities/differences with Connorโ€™s cat! Neat having the adjustable draft. I also get the low bridge deck clearance slamming in waves, depreciation maxed etc, Hoping to get more young people/ other girls interested in sailing so pretty awesome to see Connor doing it as well. I learnt to sail monohulls and Iโ€™d pick one to cross an ocean any day but for living on and doing a 3/4 circumnavigation of Australia Iโ€™m pretty happy with my choice so far. Iโ€™ve been watching your videos for a long time, when this was all just a tiny idea in the back of my head. Really cool to see a video so close to home.

    Fun Fact: Chasing Latitudes (Chris Caruso) recommends this particular (Gemini 105M) catamaran. ๐Ÿ˜€๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘

    Hi Dan, didn't forget you since covid! Hope you're doing good! I just saw a 1980 Tartan T33 for only 24,900 USD for sale, looks like in great condition as well. Seems that boat prices have dropped a lot in the last 1-1.5 years? Starts to be theoretically possible for me to do this within the next few years as it looks now, trying to have 30K for a boat and 20K reserves. Actually I even see a 1978 Pearson 31 for 19,900 USD as well now lol!

    Awesome vid. Also, Managed Democracy is calling.

    Really cool tour. Always neat to see peopleโ€™s floating homes. Does he have a YouTube channel or IG to follow along his adventures?
  • @g-sailing4427
    Conor is a cool guy ๐Ÿ˜Ž does he have YouTube?
  • @whitepawrolls
    Very nice boat. Wonder how well it would do as a coastal sailer :)
