@peteh8077 The gelcoat protects the underlying fiberglass…so potential further degradation and damage is likely to occur. I don’t see this as sudden and catastrophic, but just a slow deterioration.
Thank you so much for the nice comment. This is exactly why I have started making these videos...so people can a much better view of different types of boats :D
I have a 2020 Legacy. One: There is a lot about the 105 that is better than the Legacy. Two: You did an amazing job with this video. Congratulations. ps; What is the purpose of the vertical steel rods on either side of the salon?
Thank you. My guess on the rods is that they act as chain plates for the aft lower mast stays. You’ll see some boats like Beneteau’s use rods internally as well for this same purpose.
I’m kinda interested in them due to their price. The solid bow can be more dangerous in pitchpoling events, so that’s a thing to keep in mind (the tramps let the water flow through, where the solid deck shovels the boat deeper into a wave, especially if surfing down a wave in a storm). Most sailors I know say they are slow and low build quality 🤷♂️ seems awesome for the diy types though! 😸
Great review, thorough and informative... thanks. Only constructive criticism is use the word "basically" less. It is the adult equivalent to teens needlessly inserting "like" into every thing they say. 👍🏼
They are good little boats. They are good entry point catamarans for the price. The one weak point of Gemini’s is their lower end gelcoat…so expect crazing and cracking on the decks, but good little boats.
stop adding yourself into the video. We don't want to see you we want to see the boat. Take a hard look at NautiStyles channel on how to conduct a tour. They are the best around.
Different types of channels. 😁. We are showing our clients boats from smaller and older to newer and bigger. Just depends on what we get into inventory. We cover all ranges of boats 😎

Sweet little boat , change salon tables post and a nice bed there too .
I agree Rodney...very sweet little boats!
Great Video, also good to hear from someone that knows a thing or 2 about boats.
Thanks Fletcher…always learning something new 😎
My absolute dream boat. Wanting one when i retire someday.
They are cool boats. Beware of the extreme gel coat crazing though on many of them.
@@BoatSnoop can the crazing lead to other damage?

Nice video, well done, good pacing, thorough
Thank you for the compliments! 😎
That is the coolest little boat.
They are definitely cool boats Rodger. Thank you for subscribing.
That was a great overview. Thank you for your time

Great little catamaran. Simple and easy to handle. Thanks for the video. Fair winds.
They are nice little catamarans. Thank you for the comment ;)
A wider lens would be great for those shots from the inside. You really want something like a GoPro set to wide or ultra wide.
Still hard…not a large boat. Hovever, if you want to contribute to the equipment fund LOLOLOL…just hit that RUclips thanks button and contribute 😁

And time stamps?! M8, fantastic walkthrough 👍👍

Thank you! Yes, I figured timestamps could be useful to the viewer and it doesn’t really take that much more work. 😎
They are cool little catamarans and are relatively affordable. Their gelcoat is a bit thin though and prone to spider cracks.
Great review, thorough and informative... thanks. Only constructive criticism is use the word "basically" less. It is the adult equivalent to teens needlessly inserting "like" into every thing they say.

Thanks! Yeah, that was one of my earlier videos…think I am slowly improving, but I’m not a professional video guy by any means. 😎
Very nicely done :)
Thank you Airborne Ranger
Nice
Thanks
This boat looks a bit used but otherwise the model is awesome !
They are good little boats. They are good entry point catamarans for the price. The one weak point of Gemini’s is their lower end gelcoat…so expect crazing and cracking on the decks, but good little boats.
Does anyone know -
Can this boat dry out on a beach etc ??
I’m actually not sure if these can be beached or not. They are lightly built …so…I don’t think I would beach it.
current Gemini owner here... they can be beached safely on a sandy or muddy bottom.
Thank you Michael for letting us know 😎
Best thing about these boats is parking on the beach
Good to know
are t5here engins
Songle diesel engine aft centerline that goes to an outdrive that raises and lowers. It is in the video

Thank you for the good constructive comment. I agree. This was only my third video and I started pulling myself out much more in later videos.
@@BoatSnoop do you, that’s how the new great channels happen then everyone jumps to that formula 😉
I still talk throughout the video and keep with my own style…just don’t keep a picture of myself up the whole time.
I can’t see the lady from NautiStyles setting foot on a boat like this. She’d probably want shots 😜
