Australia’s largest sailboat builder, Seawind Catamarans, is set to debut the world’s newest blue water cruising catamaran at the Melbourne International Boat Show in February 2010.

This brand new design encompasses 27 years of multihull design and manufacturing from Seawind’s experienced design team of sailors, who have created an ocean going catamaran that offers the highest level of engineering, quality of finish and performance. With over a million dollars worth of new tooling and design investment, Seawind are looking forward to rolling out this new production line in the brand new purpose built facility in Russell Vale (Wollongong - Australia) using a climate controlled resin infusion lamination bay for superior fibreglassing quality and strength, essential elements for a  blue water cruiser.

Though the new Seawind 1250 shares many of the multi-award winning design characteristics of the internationally acclaimed 38ft Seawind 1160, such as the trifolding doors, great open space layout, 360 degree view, and multipurpose saloon table / coffee table / bed, this new design is larger in length, beam, height, rig, sails, fuel tanks, storage lockers, head height, and also offers a new twin helm design with excellent protection from the elements, a sky window to view the sails and optional raised seats for cruising comfort. Plus, a wider targa catwalk for additional solar panels for cruisers and a larger targa walking platform, bow seats, larger trampolines, an open bottom transom step for easy boarding from dinghies and larger optional motors,  and there is an innovative day bed & navigation desk built into the saloon, or an optional galley up layout, just to mention a few features.  Combined with some clever and innovative design layouts, this bold blue water performer is equally at home as a harbour entertainer or charter boat. With 8 boats already sold, it’s clear that this new production model is going to be in demand.

In addition to the Seawind 1250, Seawind will also be exhibiting the Award Winning Seawind 1160 and the Seawind 1000, we invite you to come along and check out Australia’s most popular Sailing Catamarans.

We will be conducting Test Sails following the show on the Seawind 1250, Seawind 1160 and the Seawind 1000. Places are limited, to register CLICK HERE
