With the beginning Seawind 1600 now being constructed and ready for an early 2017 completion we are looking forward to see her sailing the Mediterranean next summer. With simple sailing systems, twin helm controls and a large originate cockpit area, this is a blue water cruising boat that sets the standard. We all had such a huge week up in the Whitsundays for this years Rally. In fact, immediately after taking delivery of Sun downer, Robert flew to the Cocos Islands to go Kite Surfing for a month, earlier returning to sail his fresh Seawind from Sydney back. As in all Seawind Rallies, this event is open to Seawind Catamarans of all sizes. The rally will be a single division race with no extras and an easy start to enable more. Literally thousands of boats of all sizes and hundreds of large cruising cats later, he is quiet as excited by the resist as he was on the first day. In extreme ravage the catamaran will tranquil float offering a high glossy of safety to its crew. Seawind’s range of cruising catamarans are designed by Australians, uniquely for the purpose of allowing couples or families with limited or no cruising experience to safely and comfortably explore the bays, coastlines and islands and between Australia, Asia and across the Pacific.

This means you end up with a much larger galley with storage and preparation space comparable to catamarans of 46ft or larger, with the bonus that your saloon lounge is massive and not impeded by a galley. The unfold design of the saloon effectively makes the galley portion of the living space. We both have a passion for the sea, adventure and travel. If you have plans of buying a catamaran to go cruising in say 5 years but impartial can’t wait that lengthy to get out on the water and start learning the ropes and living the cruising life, then you should really consider a charter investment. Well, for example, the Whitsundays for many years has been Australia’s favorite destination to bare boat’ charter sailing yachts and catamarans, with the exquisite islands, anchorages, beaches and resorts that this world heritage area has to offer. Seawind have been a favorite choice of charter fleets over the years, due to their robust cruising designs built for Australian conditions, which also happen to make excellent charter vessels this is an imperative difference to other brands, as a Seawind catamaran will continue to be a vast cruising boat behind its initial charter life and historically shows potent resale values as a result, as opposed to a vacation style’ charter boat with the normal four cabins and four bathrooms. If I were considering a multihull, this is one of the boats I’d be seriously looking at. So we are thrilled that they have discovered exactly what we wanted to create: a fast, sporty cruiser that would just be a lot of fun!
