If you are looking at buying a cruising catamaran over 40 feet, then be sure to see the latest development from Seawind before making your decision.

Following the huge success and world acclaim of the 38ft Seawind 1160, an all new blue water cruising catamaran is currently being developed by the Seawind team at the newly constructed state-of-the-art facility in Wollongong.

Though the new 41ft Seawind 1250 will include many of the award winning design features of the Seawind 1160, this model is an entirely new design being longer, higher (including bridgedeck clearance) and beamier than it’s 38ft predecessor with dozens of new features not seen before on previous Seawind’s. The new design will also feature several new layouts including a Galley Up version, or Galley down with Nav Station up and Day bed.

Further information will be available at the Sydney International Boat Show from July 30 to August 3. An inspection of the boat which is currently under construction in Wollongong will also be available by appointment.

Three boats have already been sold with the first due to be complete in September / October this year.

From one extreme to the other
Let's go inshore, and how, with the 16-foot skiffs. Great action, and superb sailing. We'd been in supermaxi, mini maxi, double hander and serious weather mode for what seemed like some time. Then, as is the case at this time of year, there are a plethora of Australian Championships that get run, especially for OTB classes.

The complete package
A thriving clubhouse leads to higher racing attendance, and visa versa I'm a great believer in starting things on the right foot. Be that in the morning, going for a run (even though it was damn chilly this morning) to set yourself up for the day, or preparing ahead for a meeting so that you've got the figures to hand.
