This 40 minutes video takes you along for an incredible sail with designer Tony Smith and son Neil as they sail a stock Gemini 105Mc from the factory in Annapolis, Maryland across the Atlantic Ocean through the northern route to Southampton, England.

The trip includes sailing through all types of conditions from glassy calm to full gale. During one stretch, the Gemini races along at 16 knots in perfect ocean conditions. In just 23 days, the Gemini reaches her new home port in Southampton.

    Big thumbs up to Neil and Tony. I've always wanted to do an ocean crossing... this was the next best thing. Thank you. The Gemini was awesome. Hope to take one of my boys across the pacific one day.

    I was on the edge of my seat watching you sail through the gale. What a journey!..What a boat!... Great to see a Father and Son share this demanding and satisfying experience. Bravo!!
    Question: Did you fly home? What happened to the Gemini 105Mc ? Was it sold in England?
    Just wondering....
