I loved sailing
Gemini around
Florida and the
Bahamas for many years and we briefly considered
buying the new 105 MC for our
circumnavigation of the
Caribbean but comfort was too important a factor so we bought a new Admiral 38 cat in
South Africa. Did you already buy the Gemini? If not I saw several refrences to the Maxim 38 in other notes and I know two Maxim owners who are very happy with them. Certainly sturdier than the Gemini. We did enjoy the Gemini but I've always considered it a costal cruiser. Pick your
weather windows well and hopefully all will go well for you.
fair winds.
