Design Brief/Overview
Designed to cope with the rugged and variable conditions of Australia's coastline, the Seawind 1000 is widely considered a great ocean going yacht due to design features such as flared hulls for additional buoyancy, reefed mainsail to easily de-power, and foam core construction for additional strength, bowsprit with Screecher sail, just to name a few. However the Seawind 1000 is also one of the best designs for entertaining guests or taking the family sailing as a result of the uniquely designed cockpit and saloon. Custom transom extensions were added to the boat giving it an additional 4 ft of length, creating a smoother ride, eliminating annoying hobby horse effect and enhancing performance.
Unlike any conventional yacht or catamaran, the Seawind 1000 avoids dividing the saloon and cockpit by combining the two into one large living and entertainment area with enough room to sail with up to 22 people aboard. Even the saloon table converts into a huge king size bed. The aft targa seating not only accommodates the all important BBQ, but also supports the solar panels that double as shade over the seats. The dinghy can also be raised onto davits supported by the Targa.
