Seawind 1170 – Performance Cruising Catamaran

The Seawind 1170 is a modern performance cruising catamaran that perfectly combines offshore capability, innovative design, and exceptional liveability. Designed for sailors who value both performance and comfort, the 1170 delivers an impressive balance of speed under sail, ease of handling, and spacious accommodation.

Built using advanced vinyl ester resin infusion technology and engineered to CE standards, the Seawind 1170 offers a lightweight yet robust construction for safe and reliable bluewater cruising. Its signature open-plan layout seamlessly connects the cockpit and saloon through Seawind's innovative tri-fold doors, creating one expansive living area ideal for entertaining or relaxing at anchor.

Twin helm stations provide excellent visibility and precise control, while the self-tacking headsail and all sail controls led aft make the yacht remarkably easy to sail short-handed or as a couple. A full-width hardtop, generous deck spaces, and quality equipment throughout complete a package designed for comfortable long-range cruising.

Whether you're planning coastal adventures, island hopping, or extended offshore passages, the Seawind 1170 offers the perfect combination of performance, practicality, and premium cruising comfort.
