The Fastnet is one of sailing’s most iconic and challenging races. This year’s edition attracted the biggest fleet to date as 388 yachts set sail on what would prove a record-breaking event as the battle for line honours went right down to the wire. Also in the Solent, the sport’s fastest fleet racing series made its European debut in equally dramatic style as SailGP broke both records and carbon out on the water. It’s been a busy few weeks in Japan as well as the 470s played out their world championships on the waters of Enoshima before all ten classes battled it out in the Olympic test event just a year out from the start of the Games. And the Olympic news doesn’t stop there, as World Sailing announced more details of an exciting new offshore class for the 2024 Games in Paris. Meanwhile back in Europe the Diam 24s concluded their own Tour De France in the Tour Voile, while the 52 Super Series was taking advantage of great conditions in Cascais, Portugal to put on another masterclass.

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/
