The Catamaran 

Name

Tramontane. The name was chosen as the skipper got his passion for sailing in the Camargue region in France. One of the prevailing winds next to the better known sea wind 'Mistral' is the mountain wind 'Tramontane'. After hearing the song 'Tramontane' sung by Tourist LeMC (link here) Nick chose this name for his floating dream, as the song and artist tell about exactly the same story he has been through.
