@David Miorgan Only cat I know which uses centerboards is Gemini and they are...eh, I should make a video on them one day. It won't be too kind to em. Though you are right. A violent impact could also damage the actual trunks. Leopard used to make boats with breakaway keels for this reason.
I love the flat deck But am I the only person that thinks those helms are in a weird halfway house position with a big chunk of wasted curvy real estate in front of them. Id need to get on one to try and workout how they make sense 🤷🏻♂️
It's a boat with a lot of things going for it. The the layout is not really one of them. More like something you would accept to have a well built, quick cat that isn't over-the-top pricey.
There doesn't seem to be very much visibility of the sails from the cockpit. That is kind of a negative. isn't there more storage under the bunks? Are the burners on gimbals?
Yeah, the 1600 has a number of drawbacks relating to it being an older design, I'll make a video about it...maybe lol. Catamarans don't have gimbaled stoves, it's not necessary.

Also, I forgot to mention...the rudders kick up! Helps with shallow draft areas since she a daggerboard-er.

@David Miorgan Oh, McConaghy*, yeah, no you are right they do. My bad.
One of the nicest boats out there. Thanks for
the walk through.

I absolutely agree with you. In my opinion, it is a messy situation. All those different levels of floor in the aft deck area. Crazy stuff

If it helps i Have a new seawind 1600 and I am stuck in Vietnam
And Yes the beer is $ 2.00 a can
2 bucks?! Still seems kinda pricey IMO. Brand new boat and no where to go...sucks man! Just wait it out...better days will come.
Its all good the girls all look amazing no fat chicks hear
So many so little time
@@cougartpt793 how is that supposed to help anyone but you...?!
@@cougartpt793 whats wrong with fat chicks?
@@cougartpt793 I'm guessing your boat can go as shallow as you?
Awesome cat. Ticks a lot the boxes I have for a fast cruising cat.
Ben, nice walkthrough. Curious what the camera, lens, mic and muff you are using for this tour? Thanks!

@balls bag It's based on the Corsair 51...it's a long story
@@BigBensBoatBrokerage Please (p)review the new Seawind 1370. It looks like a great design to me.
@@LoanwordEggcorn In due time...gotta wait for it to be built first.
A wider angle lens would be nice.
