Launched in 2019 as the inaugural model of Groupe Beneteau’s sportier multihull brand, the Excess 12 represents a strategic attempt to bridge the gap between high-volume cruising catamarans and the more tactile experience of monohull sailing. Designed by the renowned naval architecture firm VPLP, the vessel utilizes the bridge deck and inner hull molds of the popular Lagoon 40 but incorporates substantial modifications to the outer hulls and rig to satisfy the brand’s "Be Immoderate" ethos. By stripping nearly a ton of weight relative to its Lagoon predecessor and removing the flybridge in favor of twin aft helms, the Excess 12 aims to provide a "wind-in-your-hair" sensation often lost in modern charter-centric designs.
