Wow was I impressed! My wife and I were on a cruise last week and I rented a wave off the beach in Grand Cayman and wow what a pleasant surprise, I have sailed 16's most of my life and last year purchased a new getaway. I always thought the wave was just an overgrown toy but it was a real pleasure to sail. Winds were up around 15 knots with a slight swell, the boat really tacks nice, almost better than my getaway :wink: . Anyway I had a swell 2 hrs with the boat. I only rented the wave because I couldn't find any 16's or getaway's to rent anywhere.

This is encouraging. I should pick up my new Wave in a few days. After years of plodding around in monohulls, I am pretty pumped up about sailing a cat.

Let's not too carried away, you were in the life size aquarium of Grand Caymen with 15 knots. In those conditions, anything is fun to sail. :D

We went to Rick White's place on Key Largo a few years back. They had Waves to use as part of the rental package. Not lux accomodations but affordable and the Keys are great.
