"My father was an avid boater, so I grew up out on the water. Most of my best childhood memories involve boathouses, docks, and the rush of taking a ride, full blast, skimming across the morning’s smooth, glassy surface. The wind on my face and a huge grin on it too. To be helping Discover Boating reach a new generation of boaters is a dream project, really. I mean, the name Cutwater comes from a boat," explains McBride. "Our task was to welcome and invite the millions of Americans who are getting into outdoor recreation right now and make boating a really fun lifestyle choice for even those who didn’t necessarily grow up with it while joining in with those already out here on the water. Our insights brought us a simple fact: boating is a verb. The boat is a vehicle for an experience. So we wanted to focus on the stories about where you will go, do, the people you’ll share it with, and how it’s going to feel. Not the fiberglass."
