Seawind 1160XL
The Seawind 1160XL is the refined evolution of our most iconic model, first released in April 2025, specifically targeted at first-time catamaran owners and families who want a proven offshore pedigree design. Now fully ISO Category A certified, this cruiser includes over 30 design upgrades, ranging from carbon front beam to a reconfigured hull shape co-designed with Stuart Bloomfield. It is the definitive choice for those who value a proven track record and want a boat that is as practical for a weekend escape as it is for a multi-year coastal odyssey.
THE SIGNATURE TRANSITION FOR SOCIAL SAILORS
The signature feature of the 1160XL is the practical trifold door, which transforms the boat in seconds from a secure offshore cruiser into an expansive, open-air pavilion. The redesigned saloon features larger, more upright windows that flood the interior with natural light and provide a constant connection to the sea. Below deck, the increased hull width allows for wider cabin doors and level flooring, creating a spacious environment that feels like a much larger vessel. Every detail has been refined based on decades of owner feedback, resulting in a boat that is as practical for a weekend escape as it is for a multi-year global odyssey.
ENHANCED SECURITY FOR FAMILY CRUISING
The 1160XL features an optimized hull shape with increased beam and raised freeboard, providing the stability and load-carrying capacity required for comfortable family life. The inclusion of 800mm lifelines and wider side decks marks a significant step up in safety, ensuring secure movement for all ages even in heavy swells. Despite the focus on comfort, the XL maintains its performance heritage with a modern sail plan and advanced laminate schedule. Whether choosing outboard or inboard engines, the 1160XL remains the most maneuverable and predictable boat in its category.
Built for Battle-Sea & Weekend Cruising
Constructed to ISO Category A offshore standards, the 1160XL retains the simplicity and low-maintenance heritage of its predecessor while stepping up for serious passages.
Significantly More Internal Volume
With a beam of 6.6 m and raised freeboard, the 1160XL delivers generous headroom (up to 6’5”), wider cabin doors and level floors throughout the hulls — enhancing comfort afloat.
