From zero to a hundredfeatured in Cruising World

THEY WEREN'T SAILORS, BUT THEY HAD SPIRIT, AND THEY WERE READY FOR A BIG CHANGE. A NEW CATAMARAN & A COUPLE OF CONTINENTS LATER, THEY GOT ALL THAT AND MORE.

Pieces of the unwieldy jigsaw puzzle were starting to come together. "The construction and design of the Antares made a lot of sense to me," says Craig. "We wanted something that we could take offshore for an open-ended journey. We liked the big saloon and that the engines are situated in the center of each hull of the boat."

This past December we invited new Antares owners to the Caribbean island of Grenada to not only get educated, but to also get a taste of cruising in the Caribbean.

Blue Dawn: The Boat That Doesn't Cry

"It's been one hell of an adventure," says Alon, describing not only the time he's spent cruising on his Antares Blue Dawn form Buenos Aires, Argentina to Brazil and eventually in the Caribbean, but also about the relationships made with the people at Antares.
