We are Ziggy and Nat, a couple who not so long ago knew nothing about sailing. Fast forward few years and we are proud to say we know a thing or two about sailing, we bought a boat and now we are refitting that boat with a plan to leave the life we know behind. The RYA Start Yachting was our first course. We loved it and wanted more. At that time we had no idea how big the community of boaters is. We met fantastic people on each and every course we did. For the first time since we moved to the UK we felt like we were part of something. The sailing community was welcoming, friendly and so inspiring. We found a lifestyle we knew we wanted for ourselves. We bought Squalo a 1981 Oyster 39”, the day after our Yachtmaster Offshore exam. She ticked so many boxes of things we wanted from a blue water cruiser. But she was neglected, and although we had no experience in boat refit, “surely, it can’t be that difficult.” we thought. So here we are. Putting blood, sweat and at times even tears into our yacht Squalo. Because not only she will be a vessel taking us to the most remote places on earth.. she will become our floating home for many years to come. We are documenting our experiences during the refit and sharing this journey with others.

It is powered by twin 25hp Yanmar high-thrust outboards that provide instant power, smooth low-speed handling, and quick acceleration to 10+ knots that could amaze any real sailor. These engines feature large displacement props, enhancing close-quarter maneuverability and low-end torque. The lightweight engine setup improves handling, reduces drag while sailing, and offers superior fuel efficiency compared to larger diesel engines. The boat is also capable of maintaining a respectable speed on a single motor. Ultimately, the 1160XL delivers refined, easy-to-maintain, corrosion-resistant performance without compromise. 👉 Contact us today to learn more, request a consultation, or reserve your build slot. #Seawind1160XL #SeawindCatamarans #BluewaterPerformance #shorts
