NASTY WAVES

March 18-19, 2026

So, when I started requesting slips/dockage at marinas, I would say that we were new to the boat and would like an easy in/out due to our unfamiliarity with the 49’ power catamaran (Fountaine Pajoy MY6). Well, our second marina, Riviera Beach took us quite literally. Do you see that boat on the T-head at the end of the long dock? Well, that’s where they put us. We were essentially jutting out into the ICW and every time a boat would go by, we were rocking and rolling. I told Howard that if this is what the trip was going to be like, I am stopping now. Oh, and look how far away we were from land. Taking the dog out was like going on an expedition! Crikey, that was not a fun experience.
