Boat is on its way. Finally!

Hi,
New to this forum. I had been on the hunterowners forum, but since then I sold my hunter and bought a catamaran over in Pensacola. I thought I'd give this forum a try. I've spent the last month making arrangements to get a captain to sail her around to the east coast of Florida. Well the captain just called from the boat and he is leaving Pensacola today!! He's sailing her to Ft Pierce, from there I'll bring her home to St. Augustine.
Can't wait!!

What is the breed,size,etc of your cat

xray ted · 27-08-2007, 12:28

It is 94' Victory 35' cat. (See on yachtworld.com, Milton Fl) At first I was not interested in a boat this old, but when I saw how good of condition she was I had to buy her. I sailed beach cats for years (Nacra 6.0) before I bought my Hunter 25. The Hunter was just to small and to slow. It's good to get back to a cat.

Aloha Xray,
Welcome aboard!! Congrats on your new cat. I was stationed in Milton FL in the late 60s. Just your post brought back memories.
Hope you enjoy your new boat.
Kind Regards,
