Catamaran Guru has been working with — and representing in the U.S. — the Bali Catamaran brand for many years. So it was fitting that we buy the first Bali 5.8 and introduce this boat with a joint christening party at the Annapolis Boat Show. We believe Christening a boat is an important part of the process of purchasing a sea dwelling vessel, which is why we do it with all of our boats and our clients boats. The Bali 5.8 has all the features you love and more space than ever! We are excited and very proud to showcase this yacht with all of you and can’t wait to set sail on a new adventure! For thousands of years, we have gone to sea. We have crafted vessels to carry us and we have called them by name. These ships will nurture and care for us through perilous seas, and so we affectionately call them “she.” TO THE SAILORS OF OLD, TO SNAPDRAGON! Oh, mighty and great rulers of the seas, to whom all ships and we who venture upon your vast domain are required to pay homage, implore you in your graciousness to take unto your records and recollection this worthy vessel hereafter and for all time known as SNAPDRAGON, guarding her with your mighty arm and trident and ensuring her of safe and rapid passage throughout her journeys within your realm.

Toni and I will be at the 2025 Annapolis Fall Sailboat Show on Thursday and Friday, October 9-10. If you see us, say Hi. 2025 has been a year of change for our Seawind 1260, “Moments in Time”. After sailing her as delivered for a season, we had a list of improvements that we wanted to get check off the list. This is one of the last ones. We originally swore we would never close in the cockpit as that was one of our favorite features. We spend more time relaxing in the cockpit than our saloon. But certain beautiful anchorages along Chesapeake’s eastern shore are forbidden certain times of the year due to vicious swarms of bugs. Screening in the cockpit now opens these anchorages back up. The visibility looking out from the cockpit is excellent so we can still enjoy our views but the visibility from the outside looking in is muted, providing some privacy. We can the screens up while sailing, or remove them for storage. We also had blackouts made for the saloon windows in the same pattern as the “Screens Saloon Shade Clip On” 1260 option which only blocked 40 percent of the sunshine. 40 percent is not enough when at a marina or trying to run the air conditioner on hot sunny days. The saloon glass can get so hot you can barely touch it and would radiate the heat. These new shades block 95 percent of the heat, allows light in, provides privacy, and the beige color really knocks down the inside temperatures. Downside is that they must be removed while underway. And since they had the sewing machine and material out, we had some winch covers made as well. Another checkmark closer to releasing the lines. Subscribe and share in the adventure!

Craziest experience of my life, says Runa Aasheim. Being face to face with orcas was more powerful than I ever imagined. Runa joined us for a week on board Valiente, freediving with orcas and whales. It was a good week, with saling, northern lights and freediving.
