You kick over the engine, spray salt into the sun, and the coastline of Aruba slides into motion — low limestone cliffs, a lattice of coral reefs, and the blue that refuses to be any paler. A 1100cc Waverunner breathes under you; the bow lifts, and for thirty minutes the wind and wake set the tempo.
