Love the boat. Great balance of size, performance and comfort. I like the fact that the space was allocated to the major living areas: cockpit/salon, kitchen and a decent head. I don't need a massive cabin since my eyes are closed when I sleep. I would need to try the boat to evaluate the views from the helm but I love the concept: safe and protected.

at 12:42 a great feature, VERY inclusive, this door raising system allows, not just old people to operate this, but People with less strength, and is a great safety feature, you don't have to heft the door up, or down by ones shoulders!- and it allows for more accessability to the 'galley' space with the door removed.

great cat. and you did a great job presenting it. but this is the thing. my wife and i went on a sail with a couple, who happened to have a galley down. i think it was an older lagoon. anyway, once we departed, my wife went on and on about how much she hated the galley down arrangement. it was enough that i know, if i have any hope of getting one, the galley will definitely be up. she said she felt isolated. and it felt darker and so on. before the galley down thing, the only issue she's ever had was over the beds. she ever mentioned she says whoever designs wall to wall beds on boats, never had to make a bed. i asked her if it had to be a choice between "galley down" and island berths, which would she choose. after reminding me, she doesn't have to choose; but if the grand kids lives depended on it she would choose galley up. and to be honest, i think i agree with her. cooking is a thankless job that never ever ends. sticking her in a place on the boat, she definitely doesn't want to be, just isn't in the cards for me. but i do love seawind. they are the best of the best as far as i'm concerned.

John Doe yes this is a very common point...but the older style galley downs you see on those boats give the rest a bad name as they are closed off, unlike on the Seawinds. But you really have to go on one and see cooking in action to understand fully. Benefits are: much bigger galley on this size boat, much more storage, much bigger saloon, plus benefit of hiding dirty dishes away after a meal. But if you can stretch to a 45 footer then stay tuned as a big announcement coming that might get you excited

Love my 1190! Great video. Really good orientation on how easy it is to sail the boat. I especially love the dual helm and sitting on the gunwale and hand steering to the telltales. Like my youth racing dinghies. I’ve raced sailboats on monohulls for over 30 yrs and I love my Seawind. And so does my family of 5 that hated our last two monos. Flying along at 12 knots boat speed up and flat hand steering with the wife and kids comfortable and relaxing in the open air salon. Best of both worlds.

Funny that all demos are done with all windows down on a warm day. What would be your front water view with all windows and doors closed on a colder day? Worst, what would be your visibility at night time with all the inside cabin lights reflecting in the windows; could you distinguish boat lights from reflected inside lights? I think this boat has a major safety issue due to it's limited visibility going thue many windows and having to switch from side to side to navigate.

Are these boats cheaper than Lagoon, FP or Leopard once fully kitted out & commissioned? I like the low boom, but rope arrangements/tidy bags, accommodation, galley etc far inferior to the brands I mention. Looks speedy, but probably best suited to fast day /weekend sailing rather than live aboard cruising lifestyle. The view from either helm is also unlikely to be better than a sport top style layout, which with a hard bimini & drop down, gives plenty weather protection and totally unencumbered view.
@MultihullCentral1
@MultihullCentral1 5 жыл бұрын
Hey Jim, yes the Seawind 1260 is competitive with Lagoon, FP and Leopard. In fact, they are the most popular cat in Australia. If you look at the video at 7:51 you will see there is a dedicated FG rope organiser which is on both sides...this is deep and has partitions so you can get all the ropes out of the way and it doesn't deteriorate in the sun like rope bags do. These boats are sailing all over the world and have been tortured in the Southern Ocean. They are incredibly stiff as they are totally glassed together so one monocoque structure - even internal furniture is part of the structure. Not glued together. Foam core not balsa core. Fully resin infused. We've had people in their 70s cross the Pacific and swear by the helm because they can do everything on one level and have full protection. Thanks for the comments!
@horitulgi
@horitulgi 5 жыл бұрын
Just don't think overall that they match the most recent offerings from FP, Lagoon & Leopard. Looks like their boats from 2005. Lines are all over the place, trip hazards, twin helms make it harder to tack if solo, raised hatches etc. Additionally the accommodation overall is no where near those French & SA boats, both sleeping berths and where guests would lounge/rest. The galley has to be down as the salon is quite small for a cat of this size. Most Cats are cruised round the Med or Caribbean, with most time spent on the hook and maybe a once a year trade wind Atlantic crossing. So it's getting that balance of half decent short hand safe sailing, without slamming (hull clearance?) and cockpit/lounge/berth accommodation for owners and guests. Understand why they'd be popular in Australia, you don't have to sail halfway round the world to get one! So half decent option for you guys down under. Fair winds.

​@@horitulgi I would really suggest you jump on one for a sail before jumping to conclusions? Lines run through deck organisers...can't say I have ever tripped on them and I'm a gorilla. I get the benefit of having them hidden - makes sense...however there are also benefits having them accessible. Eg we had a block blow out on a halyard recently when racing. As they were accessible we could easily run through a different organiser in minutes, rather than having to run a mouse line and re run. Not sure sure how a twin helm makes it more difficult? You can sail from either one all day long if that floats your boat. But you have the benefit of walking over zero steps to the other helm to get better visibility of sails etc...this means you never have to have the boom immediately over your head. The boat probably has the best natural ventilation on the market with real opening window hatches forward. you actually don't need AC unless you're on the equator. The boat has two queen sized beds and a third (or fourth) double. The big beds are above the bridgedeck rather than down in the hull - so you step up into the bed rather than step down. Yes the other brands have very generous cabins in this regard that's granted, but they pay big time in performance as they end up with very fat and slow hulls. The Seawind is approx. 30% lighter than other brands of this LOA. They are popular in Australia because the sun's harsh and you need protection, we have wild conditions at times so they need to be bullet proof and we love to sail _/)_

Very good question - but its for a variety of reasons. With the salon width right to the beam of the boat, you have no access for coming alongside a dock or dropping fenders. Also punching through oncoming water with a green wave over the front is a bit more nerve-racking when you have a door with seals needing to take the blow. Easier the bigger the boat but unless you want to end up with a house boat, not ideal for seaworthiness on smaller cats

I believe in a lower boom/point of effort - especially in light of the ridiculous “flying bridge” type sailing cats these days. However, having to look THROUGH the cabin to see multiple points on the forward and opposite side of the vessel is completely unacceptable for us. You keep referring to the great views while the camera person is showing horrible views from near helm positions. Much like a pilot house monohull or a Nautitech I was recently aboard. GF felt the same way. We’ll take the “inconvenience” of a couple steps up and down from a slightly elevated helm allowing us unobstructed 360 views any day. Personal opinion and choice.

Hey Joe...its very difficult to give the full picture with a little camera onboard...most people when they come for a sail are pleasantly surprised. The vis is dramatically better than the Nautitech 40 because you can see through the superstructure. And its not only the stepping up and down you avoid, you also avoid getting windblown, or having to look through clears when its raining, or being stuck on one side of the boat so you can't see your sails. You look through glass and out of the weather and can swap from one side to the other. And hey, you can always stand up on the step and look over the coachroof too so you have best of both worlds. All I can suggest is that if you ever have the opportunity, come for a sail. But thanks for the comments!

@Joe Smythe Look at the new 1600, has a better helm position, plus the entire boat looks a looot better. If Seawind could make a 1400 that'd be a very desirable boat, especially if they could keep the daggers.

Outstanding informative video. 36 People on board must be a mess ;-). Do You have a Chart Plotter in sight on the starboard helm?

@MultihullCentral1 5 жыл бұрын
Thanks for the feedback! Yes 36 is quite party! but more often smaller groups. You can put a repeater plotter on the starboard side but usually just a multifunctional repeater so you can toggle through various instruments - some even attach an iPad in waterproof case with repeater software to talks to your chart plotter etc

Hi Brent, thank you for a nice video. I like both the 1260 and 1160. Looking to purchase one in the not so distant future. Can I purchase it directly from Seawind or do I need a broker? Cheers from the USA. Stay safe.

Hi Joe, I'm 6'3"...I just did a quick measure for you. The cockpit has at least 6'6" height thoroughout. The saloon has 6'4" height, The Galley has 6'3" and the forward cabins have about 6'4" but it tapers down a little towards the bow end.

What is that door?? Why not sliding ones? OK, the boat is low and probably sails nicely, but is quite confusing, and having 2 helms is not a real necessity. Acrilic on the bimini is alrealdy showing cracks... Midship galley is something polemic: more space to cook, but separated from the action and smaller cabins... Pretty, but not my boat.
@MultihullCentral1
@MultihullCentral1 5 жыл бұрын
Hey Francisco, thanks for your questions. The door system was designed to essentially remove the compartmentalisation and visibility block that a main bulkhead provides...even with sliding doors, those doors have to slide somewhere and usually into the main bulkhead. So the tri-fold door cleverly opens the boat right up without intrusion. Also worth noting that while the boat looks low, the hulls are narrow at the water line and they feature flared hulls from the bow to the stern for reserve buoyancy.

Hey Stephen, there is a good walk through tour showing the hulls so we didn't want to cover old ground and instead wanted to show what is pretty rare...and that is how these boats actually sail. Too much emphasis these days goes towards accommodation without every looking at the sailing aspects of these boats. If you want to see the walk through tour see: kzbin.info/www/bejne/barcnoCZoNynr7c Appreciate your comments!
