1963 Gemini Sailboat with Trailer and Motor
Gemini Sailboat—a fast, responsive vessel designed for performance and ease of use. This sailboat is in excellent condition with no issues. Manufactured in 1963, the present owner had it reconditioned in 2010 by the manufacturer, Cape Cod Shipbuilding Company, to ensure top-notch quality and functionality. Reconditioning included updates to the rigging, hull, and deck, preserving its original charm while enhancing ease of use and durability. Its planning hull provides superior performance, particularly when sailing into the wind, while the spacious cockpit offers plenty of legroom, similar to that of a keel boat. The dual boards set under the seats are easy to lower and raise on each tack, allowing for smooth maneuvering and efficient handling. The boat features a fiberglass hull, ensuring durability and a lightweight build, and the deck and seats have been painted with Awlgrip Sunfast-red, a high-quality US paint that perfectly matches the original color.
The boat measures 16’1” in overall length with a 14’ 9” waterline, a 5’ 7” beam, and a 7” draft hull that increases to 40” with the boards down. The 140 sq. ft. sail area provides ample power for swift sailing, while the boat weighs just 440 lbs, making it easy to handle on and off the water. The package includes everything you need for a smooth sailing experience: an aluminum mast and boom, standing and running rigging, and an outboard well rated for a 4HP engine. The sails—including the mainsail, jib, both with battens, and spinnaker—stored in sail bags, are clean, in excellent condition, and ready to use.
For added convenience, the sale includes a Honda BF2D gas motor, a 2 hp, 4-stroke engine with ultralow emissions and low hours. Only ethanol-free gas has been used in the motor, ensuring longevity and optimal performance. Also included is a Load Rite galvanized trailer, which features a 1 7/8” ball coupler, ratchet strap, and mast carrier, all in great condition. The trailer’s tires have plenty of tread, and all lights are functional. The sailboat and trailer have been stored in a barn whenever the boat was on the water. A separate bill of sale will be provided for registration.
This Gemini is perfect for anyone looking for a classic, well-maintained sailboat that delivers both speed and comfort on the water. With its responsive handling, great features, and included accessories, this sailboat is ready for its next adventure. The professional restoration and reconditioning ensure that this sailboat is as close to new as possible while maintaining its vintage appeal, making it a rare find for collectors and sailing enthusiasts alike.
