The bow lifts over a pale sandbar and the water hums like an invitation—warm, shallow, and utterly alive. In a private Sea Ray 420 Sundancer, the shore of Grand Cayman slips away and the North Sound opens: stingrays circle like slow shadows, parrotfish graze coral gardens, and a hush settles as guests step off the ladder into ankle-to-chest-deep water.
