Journey Hull #1 is available for delivery in 2011
It was a pretty brave thing to undertake the building of this boat at a time when most other manufactures were barely holding on, or worse. The product looks pretty good.

I'm trying to remember the exact circumstances as to the beginning of this project, but it was not Jet Tern, nor Selene that began it. I seem to recall it was several young brokers out on the west coast of the USA that felt a need for a product like this. They contacted that designer who had designed a 'photo catamaran' for that America's Cup involving the big cat and the big tri (over in Spain).
