Seawind 1600 © Seawind Catamarans Length overall: 16.10 m or 52 ft 8 in Beam: 8.10 m or 26 ft 6 in Draft (boards up/down): 0.60 m or 2 ft 1 in to 2.60 m or 8 ft 6 in Displacement: 14,400 kg or 31,700 lb Engines: 2 x 57 hp to 80 hp Fuel capacity: 750 L or 200 US gal Water capacity: 658 L or 174 US gal Mainsail area: 100 m² or 1,080 sq ft Cabins: 3-4 Berths: 6-10 persons The Seawind 1600 is the high-performance flagship of the Australian brand, designed by world-renowned naval architects Reichel/Pugh to deliver exceptional ocean-crossing speeds without compromising live-aboard comfort. Built with advanced vacuum-infused composites including carbon fiber and Kevlar reinforcement, this 52-foot catamaran offers the structural rigidity needed for blue water sailing. A defining technical feature is the fully retractable daggerboards and rudders, which allow for windward precision when deployed and a remarkably shallow 2-foot draft for beaching and thin-water exploration. The deck layout features protected twin helm stations that provide 360-degree visibility while keeping the skipper sheltered under the hardtop bimini. Unlike traditional open-concept catamarans, the 1600 utilizes a two-step transition into a cozy, light-filled saloon that features a forward-facing navigation station and a massive U-shaped galley. With a high-aspect fractional rig and all control lines led aft for short-handed management, the 1600 is engineered for couples seeking a fast, balanced, and safe platform for global circumnavigation. A new factory build typically starts at 1.5 million US dollars. #Seawind1600 #SailingCatamaran #BlueWaterCruiser #HarbourMasters

What do you get when you mix Cold War espionage, an 80-year-old warbird, and a pilot crazy enough to hijack his own airplane to escape communism? In this video, I fly Mira Slovak’s original Bücker Jungmann, a legendary German-designed WWII-era biplane with an unbelievable backstory. From Cold War defection to aerobatic stunts, this flight is packed with cinematic footage, vintage aircraft vibes, and a slice of aviation history you’ve probably never heard. Miroslav “Mira” Slovak was a Czech Airlines pilot who hijacked his own plane in 1953 to flee the Soviet regime, eventually becoming a U.S. citizen, air race champion, and aerobatic pilot. His story is straight out of a movie—and now, his historic airplane lives on. We took this 1930s warbird to the skies for a day of vintage aerobatics, tailwheel flying, and breathtaking air-to-air shots. Whether you’re into vintage planes, Cold War history, general aviation, or just love epic flying footage, this one’s for you.
