Though it was years and years ago, I still remember my very first Catamaran experience. I couldn’t have been more than 14 years old. It was a crisp sunny day at Virginia beach. The seagulls were hawking, the waves were crashing, the sun was shining, and the water was inviting. I remember distinctly seeing a peculiar looking, dual-hulled boat and thinking, how could such a funny thing float?
Once I got on, I remember the sails billowing outward as the vessel took off with a remarkable speed. I remember how extremely smooth it rode the waves, and how even though we were going at a fast pace, the ship was incredibly, incredibly sturdy. In fact, I had seen several other Catamarans alongside the one I was on back at the dock equipped to live on. Imagine that! Living on a Catamaran! Anyways, the experience was fast, furious, and most of all, and most importantly, fun. The wind whipped at my face and raw adrenaline pumped in my veins. To this day I still remember the very first time I rode the peculiar Catamaran. And to this day I’m glad that I did.
