It sure has funny looking sails...

i think that might be the ferro model with 215 feet draft, very sturdy and no need to watch the shoals as you will just grind them to dust, moves very slow though. and i dont think you need ground tackle with that model.

eMKay,
You're not an alias for that Portugee Alex, are you? That picture looks like Mr. Giulietta has been busy in Photoshop again, and has successfully morphed CD's Catalina into a UFO.

You know what the first rule of sailing is? ...Love. You can learn all the math in the 'verse, but you take
a boat to the sea you don't love, she'll shake you off just as sure as the turning of the worlds. Love keeps
her going when she oughta fall down, tells you she's hurting 'fore she keens. Makes her a home.

To quote Mark Twain:
"Twenty years from now, you will be more disappointed by the things you did not do than by the things you did do. So, throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover."

It took some digging, but I found it.
