A Modern Catamaran for $150,000? The Gemini Legacy 35

Can you really buy a modern cruising catamaran for around $150,000? In this episode, we take a close look at the Gemini Legacy 35, a compact 35-foot catamaran that offers shallow draft, twin diesel engines, three cabins, and a 14-foot beam that can fit into many normal marina slips. With a 2014 Gemini Legacy 35 currently listed for $159,900 after a $10,000 price drop, this boat raises a serious question for anyone shopping for a used catamaran: is this one of the most affordable ways into modern catamaran cruising? The Gemini Legacy 35 was built as a smaller, more practical alternative to the big, expensive cruising catamarans from brands like Lagoon, Leopard, and Fountaine Pajot. We look at its layout, sailing performance, shallow 2-foot-10-inch draft, twin Yanmar diesels, Bahamas-friendly design, and the compromises that come with buying a compact cruising cat instead of a larger offshore multihull. If you are shopping for a used sailboat, liveaboard sailboat, affordable catamaran, or shallow draft cruising boat, this Gemini Legacy 35 review should help you decide whether this little catamaran is a bargain, a trap, or something in between.
