The catamaran slips away from the Théoule-sur-Mer landing stage as the sun leans low, palms and the red-tinged Esterel cliffs sliding past the rail. Salt air and a steady, comforting thrum beneath your feet set the pace; the Black Sail’s twin hulls hold the quiet of the bay while the horizon pulls the sky into gold and mauve.
