Marketing - Ships, Sailing, Maritime / sailing boat publicity | | French term or phrase: vibrations sauvages | I'm not expecting wild vibrations ... well, this is the end of the text and I'm nearly there. Help me up the last few feet! Total rephrasing welcome (and necessary methinks).
Oser
… Être déraisonnable, aller emprunter aux plus grands, aux maxi yachts, leurs références, leur excès, leur folie, leur obsession du détail, qui fait de la mer une expérience ultime, un luxe d’une rare intensité et moins sage qu’il n’y paraît.
Réinventer
La performance en mer, la débrider elle aussi des normes de la plaisance, pour qu’elle devienne vitesse pure, manuvrabilité absolue, trajectoire parfaite.
Étonner
Par un concentré de style inédit et de technologie silencieuse, au service d’une performance et d’un plaisir extrêmes, que tous les sens doivent réapprendre.
Par une expérience de la mer plus riche et personnelle que fastueuse, pour des **vibrations sauvages** qui transportent à l’excès.
Imaginer une audace rock’ n roll. |

35 mins confidence:   extreme sensations
Explanation:
This author has gone to town on this one. He's definitely out to lunch!
By a sailing experience better defined as rich and personal, than one of luxury, offering truly extreme sensations.
Dare, go for it!
I abandonned the idea of playing around with vibrations from the word go. Also decided to keep anything wild out of it. "Rock and roll" conveys pretty much the same idea as wild anyway. As to being transported elsewhere, major doubts about avoiding the ridiculous without even passing through anything sublime to get there. No. I've played safe but still hope it sounds convincing!

Might be an idea to get rid of "Rich" and try "fulfilling" instead. What do you reckon?
