S/V Plot Twist is an Australian-built 2005 Seawind 1160 Deluxe catamaran, for sale by owner. She was built for fun and built out for long-term adventuring. With 900ah of LiFePO batteries, 3000w Victron inverter/charger, 1600w of solar sitting atop a brand new custom arch, and a custom OC Tender 330, you can spend weeks exploring secluded anchorages or partying with your new cruising friends. The Seawind 1160 is an award-winning catamaran, and the brand has only increased in popularity as cruising influencers like Ruby Rose and Tula's Endless Summer have commissioned theirs, recognizing the vessels' thoughtful features and blend of performance and comfort. Already an easy cat to sail short-handed, we've added a permanent 3rdreef, avoiding the necessity of removing the first reef and transferring lines in rough weather. With a wait time of 18-24 months for a new Seawind 1160, this may be your best chance to get a fully-equipped model at a fraction of the price. Step aboard. Sail away. We've got everything you need. https://www.catamaransite.com/catamarans-for-sale/seawind-1160-deluxe/
