Boat Overview
Designed by the internationally renowned naval architects Reichel / Pugh Yacht Design, the Seawind 1600 combines efficient hull design, advanced composite construction, and thoughtful systems engineering to deliver a yacht that excels in both sailing performance and long-distance cruising comfort.

Upgrades and Equipment
Extensively equipped for global voyaging, Pure Joy benefits from numerous significant upgrades, including:

Twin 80HP engines
A 22 kWh lithium battery bank
Approximately 2 kW of solar generation
Hydrogenerator power generation
