Reynolds 21 catamaran

Chris - a regular character down in Mission Bay is often found kicking around on his Reynolds 21 catamaran. This is a beat up old boat but she sails very nice in moderate winds.

This team of salty sailors pulled the Reynolds close enough up to my boat and we got these photos.

Ocean Beach and Point Loma are off in the background.

Chris, Corey and Dave out cruising the Reynolds 21

      Hi John-

      Yeah it's a blast taking her out in the pacific

      She's very light and moves well over the swells

      Thanks for the video
      Freshwater sailing is cool too- once you've been in the salt for awhile - you start missing lake sailing

      We've got 5 foot swells today and 17 knot winds

      Should be interesting ...

    Talk away Bruce. YES Curran I have always wondered how she would be on open water.. I easily get 16+ knots on my lake but then I run out of water. LOL

    That sounds pretty fun John Palladini. Yep we have plenty of open space out here - she's cuts right through the sea chop, no problem. Over 3-5 feet its gets a bit uncomfortable...

    Nice one Kevin! How much does that Reynolds cost? I found great boats here: Rayomarine.
