In this episode we travel to Guaymas and San Carlos in Mexico to check out the unique expedition power catamaran Domino. She is a Malcom Tennant designed 20 meter power catamaran (Domino 20) that was built by her current owners in Paraguay and launched in 2009. The performance specs of this boat are very attractive, having a proven record of crossing oceans at an average speed of 10 knots with good economy and range and ability to run at over 20 knots when needed. Domino is mentioned specifically in the latest updated edition of Beebe’s classic text Voyaging Under Power.

While in Mexico, we also took the opportunity to do some exploring of the local area by off road buggy and got a few hours of fishing in on a local charter boat.
To close out this episode, we share our thoughts on the advantages and disadvantages of this power cat for our lifestyle and mission, and why we are back focused on the Nordhavn line for for our next boat.
