Looking for a Catamaran Cruising Blog?

If you found this blog via a link from a cruising site ~ we did cruise Mexico on our Ocean 49 cat for a season. See the first text box on the right for links to our preparations, trip down Baja, life in Mexico, cruising and trip back up to SoCal. Unfortunately we are back to the grind in the USA...

Another Cat in the Cat Clique!

Congrats to our friends, Colin and Wendy!
For going from three hulls to two hulls.
For going from minimal comfort to huge, unbelievable comfort.
For lowering their speed, so we can now not be left in the dust.

Soon to be ex-boat ~ "Indefatigable" or "Indy" for short:Fast.
Fun.
Extremely fast.
Trailerable.
Children have to sleep outside.
Did I say fast?
No place for the dog.
Not so comfortable to cruise in for any length of time.
But really fast!
Anyone looking for a F-31?

New boat ~ "Wolfcat", soon to be re-christened "Bangorang" or something like that.We saw this boat with it's prior owners at Santa Barbara Island and on the backside of Santa Cruz Island.
Even had a vhf conversation with the owner.
Now we have had drinks and food on it.
A tour.
An evening.
This boat has three comfortable staterooms.
Meaning their kids can now sleep inside.
Room for the popcorn eating dog.Comfort for extended cruising.
And they won't be leaving us in the dust anymore!

Indy just looks fast! What's wrong with the kids sleeping on deck? Don't all little kids like camping out?

They each have a set of college age twins. The nets just aren't big enough for college kids. And one toilet? Yes, the boys can go overboard, but not so good for the stepsisters to have to witness. Indy is fast, but the FP is delux!
