The 1998 Gemini 105M "Faithful" is a well-maintained and thoughtfully upgraded example of one of the most popular cruising catamarans ever built. Designed by the renowned Tony Smith, the Gemini 105M has established a reputation for its balance of sailing performance, comfort, and versatility. Built by Gemini Catamarans, a trusted name in multihull construction, "Faithful" embodies the design principles that have made the Gemini 105M a top choice for sailors around the world easy handling, spacious living accommodations, and shallow draft advantages.
Performance and Handling
"Faithful" is a joy to sail, thanks to her efficient sail plan and lightweight design. The Gemini 105M features retractable centerboards and rudders, which allow for a shallow draft of just 18 inches with the boards up perfect for exploring coastal waters or navigating shallow inlets. With the boards down, her upwind performance is impressive, making her equally suited for offshore passages and coastal cruising.
The helm is thoughtfully positioned for excellent visibility and control, and the single-diesel engine with a retractable drive leg ensures easy maneuvering under power. Whether you're single-handing or sailing with a crew, the Geminis well-balanced rig and straightforward systems make for an effortless sailing experience.
Some of Faithfuls equipment highlights include:
Two AGM batteries (2023)
116 watts of solar
ProMariner ProSport HD 12 marine battery charger
Faithful is located in Saint Augustine, FL, and is available for showings by appointment
I chose Zee (Zvonimir Kalinic) after posting an ad for a broker on Yacht Sales from about 15 other brokers because he showed professionalism and care right away compared to the others. Most of the brokers never intended to show people my boat but yet somehow expected to collect commission. Zee met me in Novigrad and spent 3 hours taking photos and drone footage and throughout the listing period was communicating continuously and advising me about any offers that came through. His service was at a high standard that I was extremely happy with and felt comfortable at all times especially since I’m in Sydney and my boat is in Montenegro. I can’t recommend Zee highly enough to anyone looking to sell their boat with peace of mind.
The brokerage team has been amazing. They helped me find the right catamaran for our family of four, with enough space for extended family and friends to stay with us anytime. The broker really helped me narrow down what I needed. I started with a long list and eventually narrowed it down to something that was the right fit and price for me.
I cannot speak too highly of Andrew Hodgdon and his colleagues at the Multihull Company.
The process of selling my boat was very smooth and well managed and with excellent communication – especially important as I was unable to be nearby during the sale process. Andrew’s deep knowledge of the market and my boat was very reassuring. We spoke regularly and he kept me closely advised all the way through to a happy sale. I found him a good guy, very helpful, willing to share and bounce ideas around, and I enjoyed working with him. Highly recommended!
Andrew Hodgdon and The Multihull Company are really professional! I just closed a deal with them, and everything was pretty smooth. Andrew was punctual, showed a lot of expertise, and he was honest about all the problems with the boat. He is also giving me the support I need to run all the projects on this boat. This whole process was much better than I was expecting, and I recommend this team! Thank you, Andrew.
