The Arrow 1280-S is a high-performance cruising catamaran that represents a refined, "sportier" evolution of the popular Arrow series designed by Jeff Schionning. Built by Pantawee Marine in Thailand to international ABYC and CE standards, this 12.8-meter (42-foot) multihull is specifically engineered for sailors who prioritize passage-making speed and aerodynamic efficiency without sacrificing the basic comforts required for long-term blue-water cruising. The "S" designation signifies a design shift toward narrower hulls and a superior waterline beam-to-length ratio compared to its predecessor, the Arrow 1200, resulting in a vessel that consistently challenges the wind speed in light-to-moderate conditions. Constructed primarily from epoxy resin-infused closed-cell core panels with carbon fiber reinforcements in high-load areas, the 1280-S is a lightweight "speed machine" that benefits from the precision of Schionning Designs.
