Seawind Catamaran Sailing in 30 Knots

[@rbyham]

Cool but would have improved the video to kill the music and let us hear ocean and sailing sounds...

[@venomguysydney]

+Rick Byham , Hi Rick , thanks for the feedback, will try and get better sailing sounds on some of the next videos, unfortunately I was using a go pro & gimbal and the sound was pretty bad with the 25 to 30 knots of wind , would had better results using my DSLR camera with a hotshoe mike and wind cover , next time

Is this an 1160? I am thinking of buying one, and curious about how she handles rough seas. I have heard that there is a lot of slap from a low freeboard.... Thoughts?

[@venomguysydney]

Hi Jeff, yes the videos are of the 1160. Anyone who says they have a lot of underwing slap has not sailed on the boat. We sailed from Vietnam to Singaopore with no issues and Seawinds are sailed regularly on the east coast of Australia with no issues.

World crusing tour: SW 1190 S or better SW 1260?

[@venomguysydney]

The 1260 or perhaps the newest 1170 would be two good options

Love your boat. Did you end up selling her?

[@venomguysydney]

Hi Ben, Yes Boat sold to a happy new owner who now has the boat in Australia

Excellent video! May I ask what were the sea conditions like? Looks like you had a couple reef in? Must have been flying!

[@venomguysydney]

Hi, We started out with 3 reefs due to the fact that we were sailing in a busy shipping lane and often had to move over and alter course for the large ships (Ships do not give way to sail) , sea state was 2 to 3 m seas, 32 knots max gusts abating to 20 knots as we neared Singapore and calmer seas once away from the Straits Shipping Channel and NE Monsoon Winds.

+Sailing Catamaran Diving Adventures wow! She seems like sail very well!

[@andreasm7820]

Nice video! I guess you are using some kind of camera gimbal?

[@venomguysydney]

+Andreas M , Hi Andreas, have found the best results when sailing is actually using a gimbal system as this negates the shaking action of the boat. You can get a go pro gimbal system these days for around USD300, the model I am using is the Feiyu G3 3-Axis Gimbal

AWESOME

You can learn from inplix scripts how to make it yourself.

-12 knots its too litle with 30 knots wind
