"Kestrel" is a gorgeous example of the Seawind 1260 catamaran from the well regarded yard in Vietnam. The Seawind 1260 is a sporty cruising catamaran designed for comfortable liveaboard sailing. Known for its sleek modern lines and spacious layout, the 1260 offers a great balance of performance and functionality. Kestrel features the 3-cabin Owner's Version layout which incorporates expansive living areas, a well-equipped galley, and large comfortable cabins with two heads. It is the ideal size to be easily handled by a cruising couple but also large enough to host the whole family for extended stays. The boat's design emphasizes ease of handling with its twin helm positions and 360 degree visibility. The Seawind 1260's innovative construction combines durability with lightweight materials resulting in a high quality finish on a boat that's also fun to sail.
The advantages of the Seawind 1260 lie in its combination of speed, comfort, and versatility. The wide beam offers impressive interior volume, ensuring that the onboard experience feels expansive and livable even on extended trips. The large tri-fold doors open between the cockpit and salon which allows for seamless indoor / outdoor open concept living that can also be securely closed up when the weather isn't cooperating. The boat's robust construction, innovative systems, and well-designed accommodations make it a standout cruising catamaran that is ideal for coastal cruising and island hopping. Some of Kestrel's highlights include:
