The Seawind 1170 represents a modern evolution of the Australian builder’s compact cruising philosophy, designed to occupy the narrow space between the legendary 1160 and the larger, blue-water focused 1260. Launched in 2023, this 39-foot (11.9-meter) catamaran was conceived by Seawind CEO Richard Ward as a response to the industry trend of ever-increasing vessel size. It is explicitly marketed as a "Category A" ocean-going multihull that remains manageable for a cruising couple without the need for powered winches or a professional crew. Built using vacuum-infusion with vinylester resins and PVC foam cores, the 1170 features high-performance design cues such as reverse raked bows and a hard chine that runs the length of the hulls to provide buoyancy and interior volume while maintaining a narrow, efficient entry at the waterline. Detailed technical specifications and the design ethos are maintained by the manufacturer at Seawind Catamarans.
