Life at the Limit: Sailing around the world on a SUPER FAST Catamaran

Imagine if you could cross a Porsche 911 GT2 with the most badass airstream you've ever seen... This mythical beast would be the land-based brother of the Outremer 55. Combining comfort, speed, and safety the team at Outremer knocked this one out of the park!
Unfortunately disaster strikes only 6 months after taking delivery of their BRAND NEW Outremer 55. We interview Marijka and Mark and find out exactly WHAT happened, get a tour of the boat and damage, and learn what it takes to sail on one of the world's fastest production catamarans.
If you're ready to start drooling, head over to this link to see the tour of this marvelous catamaran.
