I would be careful putting a ladder on the bow pulpit.
That thing is pretty flimsey.

Hey.....that is my little girl on what used to be 'Jump the Shark' I sold it a few months ago. We had lauren, (girl pictured) on the boat at about two months old. She was called the 'Boom Baby' in my Marina because we used to put her on a swing on the boom.

Great shot, Kevin. I've been shopping for a Mac X and found this picture on an ad for your boat. Hope you don't mind, but it really shows how you can get a Mac X close to shore.

Still Waters

No problem !!

The picture is in South Bay of San Diego Bay on the 'strand' we would take it over and beach it and let Lauren run around. Nice sandy bottom, boat is very easy to beach as long as the tide does not get ahead of you, simply pushed it off a little and motored off. Probably did this around a dozen times!! I had the boat slipped in South Bay - Chula Vista so it was a nice way to spend a few hours.

One of the reasons I bought the Gemini 105 is the ability to beach it as well !! Rudders and Centerboards come up
