Following the huge success and world acclaim of the 38ft Seawind 1160, an all new blue water cruising catamaran has been developed by the Seawind Team at the newly constructed State-of-the-art facility in Wollongong.
Though the new 41ft Seawind 1250 includes many of the award winning features of the Seawind 1160, this model is an entirely new design being longer, higher and beamier than its 38ft predecessor with dozens of new innovative and exciting features. The new design will also feature several new layouts including Galley Up version, or Galley down with Nav Station and Day Bed.
A luxurious fitout with beautiful timber trim will complement the spacious interior and 360 degree visibility. The first boat was launched in October 2009 and then tested via a rigorous ocean sea trial covering over 6,000 miles including crossing the notorious Bass Strait and Tasman Seas. With several boats already sold, this model is sure to be another big success.
