Due to a change in circumstances, GodSpeed is back on the market! She is cruise ready, with new 2026 bottom paint, completely turn-key.
GodSpeed, with her expanded Solar array and Lithium battery bank, was designed to cruise sustainably, which is good for the environment, your pocketbook, and for extended remote cruising. With an abundance of solar power, you can cook without propane (though propane system is also included), power your dinghy excursions in your quiet electrically propelled OC Tender, make fresh water, wash your clothes in the onboard washing machine, watch a movie on the large screen, and sleep in the comfort of air conditioning. All this without the need to run a noisy, expensive generator. But if you experience a few cloudy days, you always have peace of mind that your diesel engine is equipped with a 130-amp secondary alternator to help recharge your battery bank.
GodSpeed includes a 2020 OCT Tender (OC330), with an ePropulsion Spirit electric outboard and battery. This dinghy is lightweight, strong, and top of the line. (dinghy only about 86 and outboard about 44lbs)
Builder Statement - The 1260 amplifies the performance of the smaller Seawind models with increased living space and a very luxurious feel. This model was built by Richard Ward as his perfect cruising catamaran! Luxury-world standard yacht of this type and size, and only the highest of quality equipment/materials is used throughout. Indoor/Outdoor Lifestyle -Increased living space in the saloon and cockpit with many upgraded finishes are included as a standard. When the tri-fold cockpit doors are fully open to combine the saloon and cockpit, this feature offers over 139 square feet of open living space. The tri-fold cockpit doors fold open into the Targa walkway, then fold away and stow up in the ceiling of the cockpit roof. Hidden freshwater sink and BBQ in the cockpit. Modular Seating Expands Possibilities -An additional settee in the saloon allows for up to 8 people to be seated inside. Enhanced back transom seating (L-shaped settee with table) and additional modular settees/storage lockers that stow below the helm seat in the cockpit allows for a lot of flexibility in the layout, allowing 8 additional people seated here as well. The helm seating position can face forward or aft. An additional lounge area forward on the deck adds to your cruising pleasure! Built-In Fiberglass, Integrated Storage - Drawers and shelves in the cabinets are integrated and built in. They are made of fiberglass adding to the rigidity and stiffness of the boat. This reduces flexing and gives you a stronger & faster boat. The furniture superstructure comes from the molding. This adds to the theme of making everything stiff & light.
