New Seawind 1160XL – Available for Gulf States Buyers
Performance Cruising. Redefined.
Introducing the Seawind 1160XL, one of the most exciting new models from Seawind Catamarans. Building on the legendary success of the Seawind 1160 platform, the 1160XL delivers the perfect balance of performance, comfort, safety, and value for sailors seeking a capable cruising catamaran without the seven-figure price tag.
Designed by sailors for sailors, the 1160XL offers exceptional sailing performance, practical systems, and Seawind's renowned indoor-outdoor living concept. Whether your plans include weekend cruising along the Gulf Coast, island hopping in the Caribbean, or extended offshore adventures, the 1160XL is designed to take you there comfortably and confidently.
Why Choose the Seawind 1160XL?
Unlike many production catamarans that prioritize volume over sailing performance, the Seawind 1160XL remains true to Seawind's heritage as a genuine sailing catamaran. The result is a yacht that is faster, more responsive, and more enjoyable to sail than many similarly sized cruising cats, while remaining significantly more affordable than the highest-performance luxury catamaran brands.
The innovative open-plan cockpit and saloon create a seamless connection to the water, while the efficient hull design delivers impressive speed and fuel economy under power.
One of the most underrated features is the twin outboard configuration. As a former charter captain and delivery captain, I appreciate the simplicity and reliability this provides. In the unlikely event of a major mechanical issue, an outboard can be removed and replaced quickly and affordably—something that simply isn't possible with traditional inboard installations.

We had an outstanding experience working with Andrew Hodgdon to find our dream boat, an Outremer 52.
We were actually referred to him by several different people—clients who had been very happy working with him, as well as boat owners who were planning to use him to sell their own boats. After working with Andrew ourselves, we completely understand why he came so highly recommended.
We worked with him for several months, and from start to finish, he was exceptional. Andrew is incredibly knowledgeable and truly an expert when it comes to performance catamarans. He took the time to understand exactly what we were looking for, was always responsive and organized, and never made us feel pressured throughout the process.
Andrew went above and beyond to arrange showings for us in multiple states and even traveled to another state to be there with us for the sea trial. His expertise and guidance gave us tremendous confidence as we evaluated such a significant purchase.
The entire process could have been overwhelming, but he made it remarkably smooth. He was on top of every detail and made the paperwork and closing process easy, working seamlessly with his team at The Multihull Company.
What impressed us most was that he genuinely had our best interests in mind. And his support didn’t end when the sale was completed. He has continued to stay in touch and has made it clear that he is still available to help us if we ever need him. That kind of follow-through is rare and speaks volumes about the kind of broker he is.
Buying an Outremer 52 was a huge decision and a major investment, and having someone with his knowledge, experience, responsiveness, and integrity made the entire experience so much easier and more enjoyable.
We couldn’t recommend Andrew Hodgdon more highly. If you’re looking for a yacht broker—especially if you’re considering a performance catamaran—we would choose him again without hesitation. The fact that so many people recommended him to us was the reason we called him, and after working with him, we would be one of those people recommending him to others.
I highly recommend Andrew Hodgdon. He served as our buyers broker. He is responsive, highly knowledgeable and very experienced. He is also an excellent guide and counselor before, during and after the boat purchase process. If you are looking for a good-sailing cat, he seems to collect most of the available boats on the better-sailing side of the market. Top marks.
Andrew did an excellent job getting me started on my new adventures. Worked with my conflicting schedule. Is very knowledgeable in the catamaran industry. 😎
I recently sold my Lagoon 450 with the Multihull Team. I would highly recommend their services. The professionalism and personal treatment I received was greatly appreciated.
Great Service, Great People
Helped me through the process.
I would go through them again in a future purchase.
