| While we were in Cuba, for 6 weeks, we couldn’t find any place that rented HobieCat catamarans. We did finally find one in Matanzas but, next year, we are going to stay in the Cienfuegos and Trinidad area.
Does anyone know of a place that rents those to tourists (Punta Gorda had some but wouldn’t rent out to tourists). |

You mean to rent catamaran so that you can sail on it alone? I believe only Cuban person who is licensed must be with you and he or she must be the one in control if I am not mistaken. |
|
| That would be fine. That’s what we did in Matanzas. Just hubs, me, and the guy "driving it".
We’d like to find a place like that in Cienfuegos (and Punta Gorda)/Trinidad. |

The only place I know would be the resorts. They don’t own the Hobies, which are supplied by a separate company, but there aren’t any stand alone rentals that I am aware of. I would just approach the Hobie guys at one of the resorts and inquire. Money opens most doors in Cuba. |

Ditto times 4 = perfection. I really should look into emoticons; I never find them when I want them! But I know exactly what you’re saying. Best little island in the Caribbean to explore; always a surprise and you and Hubs learned it really early in your long travel to Cuba. We’ll have to start calling you guys B&B together. Still would love to meet hubs; he sorta intrigues me!! As do you – very adventurous and eager for new travel. |
|
| Awww, gee! You’re so sweet! You seem like hubs and you would hit it off really good.
As for emoticons — I know the html code for a few of them so I just type it in. I know if you quote someone here, it goes to the post editor and the emoticons are second from the right — in the toolbar. |

Geez Benni: I think as two couples we would really get along. My hubs is not so easy going; I do the planning in the house! But you and I have the same humour and I would love to meet B#2 (you’re B@1). If you guys ever decide to visit Ontario, let us know. You can bring the Newfie ‘screech’ and we’ll provide the Ontario ?? Sorry, I can’t think of anything that Ontario is known for – other than hospitality, good people, good food and laughter – OMG – I just described Maritimers!!! |
