Ce que couvre cette vidéo

A 2014 Gemini LEGACY 35 listed on Yacht World for $150,000 — after a $10,000 price drop — prompts a detailed look at whether the boat delivers genuine catamaran life at a price point where modern cruising cats almost never appear.Watch The LEGACY 35 measures 35 feet 4 inches with a 14-foot beam, draws 2 feet 10 inches, displaces 9,800 pounds, and carries twin Yanmar 2YM15 diesels producing 15 horsepower each.1:22 That 14-foot beam lets it fit standard marina slips, avoiding the wider-slip surcharges that come with 21- to 22-foot-beam cats.6:54 The layout delivers three private cabins, one head, a saloon, and a hull-mounted galley — space no 35-foot monohull matches.5:45 The LEGACY replaced the older Gemini 105MC's centerboards and single central diesel with fixed keels and twin inboards, trading shallow-water cleverness for conventional docking ease and redundancy.3:18 SailboatData lists bridge deck clearance at 3 feet, a strong number for a compact cat.7:47 Boats.com and Sail Magazine both reported 5–7 knot sailing and motoring performance, with good helm feedback in 10 knots.8:39 Weight sensitivity is the primary operational caution: at 9,800 pounds with no ballast keel, overloading degrades performance sharply.7:22 The boat suits Florida, Bahamas, the Great Lakes, and the Great Loop rather than offshore passages.6:19
