Some great articles and photos of the GS 41 Sailing Auxillary...
In our opinion - the GS41 was the start of the Gulfstar sailing tradition! Unlike the Motor Sailors -
the GS41 was as true to the sailing shape and form as you would get in 1973. This vessel was tailored
to perform in the winds and waters from Florida to the Bahamas. The rig is "low aspect" which makes
this boat easy to handle by 2 persons. The keel was limited to ~5' 6" making this boat a perfect
choice for the shallower Bahamas anchorages.
Seen below - some of our GS41 friends...
The "3 Amigos" - Perhaps the finest GS41 sailing captains to ever
venture out
on the Chesapeake. Jupiter, Diosa and Kokopelli arrange themselves neatly for an afternoon of
serious sailing conversation.
"Jupiter" seen here sailing in the Caribbean. You'll note an
arch supporting 5 large
solar panels and a "club foot" jib. Those items among other things make life in the Caribbean a bit
more comfortable.
