The excitement that the new generation of America’s Cup Catamarans generate when sailing is palatable. The speed and excitement these sea monsters create hopefully will inspire a whole new generation of younger “action sports” enthusiast to try sailing.

In an attempt to bring that possibility to the millions of young men and women who’d now like to try to learn to sail a Catamaran. The American Sailing Association has teamed up with Oracle, sponsors of the 2014 America’s Cup winning Team Oracle USA, and Hobie Cat to introduce a new and exciting special edition of Hobie’s successful WAVE catamaran that might make that experience possible by building an inexpensive easily sailed performance available to the general public.

Take a look at some potential designs below, and help us choose which one to use for our special edition catamaran, by voting in the comments. If you have an idea for a design in mind please draw it up on the blank template below and submit it to ASA.
