I have spent an hour looking for a discussion that covered a couple that sailed their boat to the bahamas. I believe it was a Catalina sailboat. It was a link to another sailing website. My friend has a similar sailboat and I was telling him about the extensive modifications for the 2 of them and a cat,

Cant find it, please help!!

Steve-

I know of an eight-part photo journal by a young couple named Brian & Stephanie, with a cat, that sailed a Hunter (26?) named Empty Pockets to the Bahamas. She is known for having literally a different bikini for every picture. My link to them goes nowhere, but I know there are several to get there. I'll keep searching for a link that works. Perhaps this is the one you're thinking of?

Edit add...In Hunterowners.com, I've found 3 of 8 photo pages + an owners review that lists the mods, the boat is a Hunter 25.5

Owners review

Cruisin' in a 25.5

If these look right, let me know and I'll link more.

GREAT..thats the one...Forgot about the bikini issue, but wanted to share the modifications they had made with another boat owner. Specifically the generator shelf and swim step. Thats a good start

Thanks!!

The new SS swim step and rudder job, if I remember correctly, are featured on pages towards the end - haven't located those yet.

I found it! Here's a page with all the Empty Pocket photo pages, 17 of them!: Cruizin' in a 25.5, a peek inside, stern rehab,...

Empty Pocket: All Pages

For some reason, the link isn't working. Instead:
GOOGLE: HunterOwners.com
go to: Message Boards
go to: Hunter Forums
go to: Photo / Project Forums
type: Empty Pocket

Enjoy!

OK -
Here's a search request...Well over a year ago, I had stumbled upon a Mac X page that I forgot to bookmark and haven't been able to find since. The points, as I remeber them...Cruising grounds somewhere in the Pacific NW, Mac 26X, singlehander with dog (I think), substantial wood galley & dinette mods, a fuel-type heater plumbed thru the cabin top, hammock mod on the bow. Ring a bell with anyone?
