Aventura has been the source of great pleasure and adventure. We initially got a small sailboat, a C&C 27, to play around in Pontchartrain Lake (New Orleans). After Hurricane Katrina devastated our area and our boat, we pondered what kind of vessel we would want. Finally, driven by a curiosity for adventure in the Gulf of Mexico, we upgraded to a larger boat, a Pearson 365, that would accommodate overnighters and more space for longer trips. We began month-long trips along the northern Gulf Coast and we delighted in the variety of places and environments. After some time, we developed a desire for a more comfortable boat. That lead to our current one, a catamaran named Aventura, a 1993 Lagoon 37 TPI. Yes, it delivers comfort in terms of sleeping, eating, and other leisurely activities. But it also delivers ease in navigating.

Check out the blog postings of all our trips over the years.
Unfortunately, we must leave the cruising life for the moment. We have reached the decision to put the boat up for sale. If you are interested in information about Aventura, equipment, amenities, and pictures, please email my husband Mike at nadsib1@cox.net
