Owning your own <b>catamaran</b> gives you a freedom to go island-hopping in the <b>Philippines</b>. Ditch reserving a ticket on airlines and ferries & be a seafarer through and through. Are you not convinced enough? Here are the <a href="http://onestep4ward.com/5-reasons-why-traveling-by-boat-is-awesome/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">five reasons</a> to be your own captain while on a trip according to OneStep4ward:<br />
<br />
1. Space = get reacquainted with “personal space” (blame your daily rides on MRT and LRT) because of the spaciousness of a catamaran. You can even stretch your legs and relax as you head to your destination.<br />
<br />
2. Leisurely pace = take a break from your fast-paced city life and have the luxury to enjoy this expedition of yours whenever you want to go. No trip schedules to observe.<br />
<br />
3. Cheap = island-hopping can drain your savings but not while you’re traveling in a catamaran. You can bring your own food and drinks within a certain budget. Have fresh seafood on your plate at dinner from what you’ve caught earlier in the morning.<br />
<br />
4. Exciting = the sea may look the same at all angles but you will never know what kind of adventure awaits you.<br />
<br />
5. Social = at sea, your isolated and kind of living like a hermit. Wait till you arrive at your destination. There are not just many sights to see; you can also meet new acquaintances, the locals or tourists like you.<br />
<br />
Are you now all fired up to start your own voyage to more than 7,000 islands in the Philippines in a catamaran? Wait—7,000 islands!? We know, we know, so we’ve already picked for you four must-see destinations that you can choose from. These are not the usual list like Boracay, Siargao and Pagudpud. You need to go off the beaten path with this list:<br />

This is a quite short list because remember you still have more than 7,000 islands in the Philippines you can visit with your catamaran.<br />
<br />
We will end this few friendly reminders. Before you steer your <b>catamaran</b> at one of these islands in the <b>Philippines</b>, <a href="http://boatkayaksea.blogspot.com/2016/06/5-boating-safety-tips-this-rainy-season.html" target="_blank">check the weather first</a> and don’t sail during rainy season. Ask also the local authorities of that island if there are regulations any sailor must follow. We don’t want our natural resources to be mishandled because of our ignorance, right?<br />

Happy sailing!</div>

<br />
When you see an ad of a <a href="http://rayomarine.com/" title="catamaran for sale in the Philippines">catamaran for sale in the Philippines</a>, the first thing comes into your mind is that it’is only for leisure purposes. The exhilarating feeling of sea breeze fanning your hair and the salty yet cool water spraying on your face—cruising on the high seas is a freedom like no other. But did you know sailing is not only a leisure activity but also a sport?<br />
<br />
You’re the captain or sailor of your own catamaran, so expect to roll up those sleeves and get to work. Manning a boat is not for the physically fit. It is a good thing sailing has health and mental benefits according to Health Fitness Revolution:<br />
<br />
<b>Muscle Strength</b> – in movies, for example, the scene where someone steers the boat’s wheel is only a fraction of how you run a catamaran. It involves pulling and hoisting of sails as well, which is a lot of muscle work. It improves upper body strength. The endurance of the sailor is put into test, too.<br />
<br />
<b>Cardiovascular Fitness</b> – the intense muscle activity needs lots of oxygen. Your heart is at its busiest when you perform something strenuous such as sailing.<br />
<b><br />Mental Wellness</b> – the ocean, sea or any bodies of water has a calming effect. As stated in a <a href="http://psychcentral.com/blog/archives/2014/04/18/waters-psychological-benefits/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">blog</a> on Psych Central:<br />
<br />
<ul>
<li>Minerals in the sea air reduce stress. </li>
<li>Negatively charged ions in the sea air combat free radicals, improving alertness and concentration.</li>
<li>Salt in the water preserves tryptamine, serotonin and melatonin levels in the brain, which aid in diminishing depression or increasing your overall sense of wellness.</li>
<li>Sound waves alter the brain’s wave patterns, producing a state of relaxation.</li>
</ul>
<br />
<b>Agility </b>– the pulling and hoisting of sails improve hand and eye coordination. It enhances flexibility and motor skills as well.<br />
<br />
<b>Concentration </b>– it is a human nature for us to have a short attention span. But with sailing, concentration is a must because safety should be your number one priority. Your navigational skills are also developed while you’re in the open seas. As stated in ABC.net.eu, sailing improves “awareness of weather and wind patterns such as fronts, pressure, and wind direction changes.”<br />
<br />
<b>Communication</b> – cruising on your own is not only lonely, it is dangerous as well. Most likely, you have a crew on board that accompanies you on your journey. An open communication is a must, verbal or non-verbal, to be able to control the boat. You and your crew should have a good teamwork.<br />
<br />
It is not included on the list but it also improves organizational and social skills. You need to be more organized in order to keep the boat <span style="background-color: white;">on </span>its tiptop shape. Routine checks regarding the condition of the boat should be scheduled. You don’t want getting stranded in the middle of the vast ocean, right?<br />
<br />
How about the social skills? It is only you and your crew on board, right? While on board, of course, this is impossible, but onshore you could interact with locals and get acquainted with them. You’ll have a chance to meet different nationalities as you sail from island to island.<br />
<br />
In a nutshell, <b>for sale catamaran in the Philippines</b> is like turning the seas into your favorite gym: you get a full-body workout and you get to meet a lot of new people.

<br />
Take a break from cruising in a <a href="http://rayomarine.com/principal/">catamaran in the Philippines</a>’ majestic waters, and try to take adventure to the next level—the extreme level! </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Perhaps your ideal summer getaway is swimming in a beach or diving into the water to have a spectacular view of the rich aquatic life. These are not enough for adventure-seeking people because it is a far cry from their usual adrenaline-pumping activities. It doesn’t make them high and alive. They prefer ‘wet and wild’ water activities.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The common extreme water sports we’ve always heard of are canoeing, jet skiing, white water rafting, and kite surfing. Yet, from time to time, thrill-seekers add a little twist to make what simple more exciting.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>Subwing</b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Have you ever wished you could fly underwater? Subwing lets you have the ability to glide like a manta ray or maneuver like a dolphin. It is an invention of a Norwegian sailor, Simon Sivertsen. His first prototype is a piece of driftwood and it was upgraded to a 4 feet ‘wing’ made of carbon fiber. Daily Mail described the sport as “a hand held fin with two ‘wings’ towed by a speed boat in 2-4 knots (2.3 mph to 4.6 mph).” The rider can maneuver the contraption in any angle he wants. Just don’t forget to gulp air from the surface and always be aware where you are going because you might accidentally plummet into the depths of the sea.</div>

<b><br /></b>
<b>Aqua Hoverboard</b> </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
It was only last year that the hoverboard was brought to life by several inventors such as Greg Henderson, Ryan Craven and Shane Chen, who was the first one to patent it. But it was first-known in the world of water sports through the brainchild of Zapata Racing (ZR). According to their <a href="http://zapata-racing.com/hoverboard-en/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">site</a>, “the Hoverboard by ZR® is a hydro-propelled board connected to the PWC (personal water craft) pump by a hose (18 or 23 m long.” Using this equipment, the rider can reach up to 8 m above the sea, to an average speed of 40 km/h, the site explains. </div>

<b>Surf Kayaking</b><br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Originally, sailing with a <a href="http://rayomarine.com/principal/">kayak in the Philippines</a> is a relaxing recreational water activity. It gets a “bit” extreme once you use it to ride waves—large angry waves. Just like the video below. This is similar to whitewater kayaking. The moment you get tired of the rapid waters of the river, the waves of the sea or ocean is your next expedition.<br />

Verrückt</b></div>

<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Do you want a rollercoaster of a waterslide? Try the Verrückt, the world’s tallest waterslide as recognized by <a href="http://www.guinnessworldrecords.com/news/2014/5/meet-verrueckt-the-worlds-new-tallest-water-slide-57097/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Guinness World Records</a>. It is the main attraction of Schlitterbahn Waterpark in Kansas City and stands 53.38 m (168 feet 7 inches). It requires 2-3 riders strapped in a raft. You can imagine how tall it is based on the illustration below:</div>

It is insanely fun, right?<br />
<div>
<br /></div>
<br />
<b>Jetsurf </b><br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
This extreme water sport doesn’t need a PWC to propel you up to staggering heights. It is a combination of a jet ski and a surfboard. Jetsurf is made from Kevlar and carbon fiber with a built-in motor that can reach up to speed of 35 mph and weighs 14 kg.<br />
