What this video covers

The Gemini 105MC is a 34-foot cruising catamaran designed by Tony Smith and built by Performance Cruising, known for its affordability, shallow draft, and trailerability.2:27 With a 14-foot beam, the vessel fits into standard monohull marina slips and can be towed with appropriate permits.3:06 The boat features retractable centerboards that allow the draft to vary from 1.5 to 5.5 feet, facilitating access to shallow anchorages in regions like the Chesapeake Bay or the Bahamas.4:37 Performance is aided by a rotating mast and a 150-percent genoa, with a retractable outboard engine mounted amidship that provides high maneuverability during docking.5:14 The interior layout includes a U-shaped dinette, a full galley in the port hull, and a head with a shower in the starboard hull.3:41 While construction is generally solid, prospective buyers should inspect older models for water intrusion around ports and hatches, standing rigging condition, and fiberglass stress cracks.5:53 Used models typically range from $40,000 to $100,000.6:21
