To cover the quarter mile distance to the cliff island was scary and fun experience at the same time.
After Lee and Xiao Lian carried the catamaran to the water, they were pleasantly surprised that it wasn't that hard to leave the shore, except it went slower than expected.
They each sat at their own side and energetically paddled, trying to get through the waves, immediately getting wet all over. The water was cold and refreshing, but it looked like the crude catamaran will hold.
Neither of the boys know anything about seafaring, but it seemed that they had picked the wrong time of the day to start their short journey. Or maybe the current they were fighting against was this strong throughout the day, they had no clue.
In the end, a quarter mile is not that big of a distance and their vessel was small enough to be easily navigated towards the small beach below the cliff. The maritime adventure was short, but they were more tired than battling dreadtalons for a whole day.
