RACING
A competition of speed, as in running or riding. A series of such competitions held at a specified time on a regular course. Steady or rapid onward movement: the race of time.

CRUISING
To sail or travel about, as for pleasure or reconnaissance. To go or move along, especially in an unhurried or unconcerned fashion.

MULTI-HULL
The first multi-hull yacht was "invented" by Sir William Petty, who launched a 30' catamaran, crude by any standard, in Ireland on September 22, 1662. Trans-oceanic voyages are now commonplace for multi-hulls; currently the fastest circumnavigation, the longest 24-hour distance, and most line honors belong to multi-hulls.
