    Default Travels with Miss Cindy

    http://ideaintegrator.com/boats/tmc/default.html

    Canadian Tony Bigras is sailing from the northern end of the Gulf of Cortez to
    the Caribbean Islands in a self-designed & built 16ft cat. So far, starting with
    car-topping a 220kg cat from Canada to Mexico, he has blogged his way
    to Granada, Nicaragua.

    Stunning boat (didn't like it at first but it has seriously grown on me), great blog, beaut photos & video, captivating stories & people.

    cheers
    AJ

    Hi AJ,

    I've been following this guy also.

    I'm with you regarding the boat though. At first it was just too different, but now I see the beauty in it. It has soft lines when you compare it to something like a JarCat (which is in a different class, but you know what I mean,) and seems very practical.

    I think his new name for the design is very apt..."Turtle Island".
