Our current sailboat

Early on in our sailing experience we discovered that our old boat Sentio Ventus wasnt big enough to weekend on comfortably. We started looking for something larger, but still small enough to learn on safely. We settled on a 27 foot Catalina. AQUILON (Latin for: North Wind) is the sailboat that we plan to sail until we reach retirement age and then purchase a larger live aboard sailboat. She was in pretty good shape, just needing some elbow grease and attention to detail. She has a fully battened main sail and a 150 Genoa roller furling head sail, wheel steering and a inboard diesel engine. She also has upgraded Lewmar winches and newer rigging which was a huge selling feature for me.

We had the interior cushions reupholstered and refinished all of the interior and exterior teak. We had the boat buffed out and the bottom repainted along with fixing some minor damage. We also added an air conditioner and flat screen T.V. with DVD player for our creature comforts. (also as an incentive to get my son to sail with us, but don't tell him)
