Thank you for the tour of the Seawind 1260. More boat than I could ever handle but it is beautiful. Randi looks fantastic. Looking forward to the first appearance of the new crew member. Take care you two. Have a great week ahead.
Thanks for the tour and review of the Seawind 1260! Yes, the fire port is to send extinguisher material into the engine compartment without opening the engine cover hatch. Never open the hatch on an engine that's on fire as that feeds oxygen and makes the fire much worse. Shoot it with the extinguisher first. Bigger boat, but the newer Seawind 1370 looks like a nearly perfect design to me. Only things missing are daggerboards and electric drive. It takes all the best features of the 1260 and makes them better IMO.
Hey Guys, stay safe. I enjoy the channel and congratz. If you ever get a chance I would be interested in seeing you tour one of the various silent yacht models. I know its not a sailing cat but with almost all solar power and even an optional kite sail, I think its a spiritual successor to the classic sailing catamaran. But that is just my personal opinion.
I have looked into these two boats extensively as I plan to retire onto a cat. Yes, there is a difference in "luxury" in the two boats, and the 1260 will perform a little better (slightly faster) because of the extra length, etc., but like anything, it comes down to affordability. 100K (around 1/3 the base price of the boat) goes a long way in your add ons (all the things you will want, like the screecher pole, downwind sails, etc.) and cruising budget. If your budget is tight, you will be limiting your cruising lifestyle, and when repairs are necessary (and they will be,) you will feel crunched. Remember, the 1160 has an equal living space to an almost 50' monohull, and will still sail faster in general than most cruising mono's. So the 1160 is no slouch, as you expressed in your 1160 review. As in your review of the 1160, you talked about the transom bench. I am sure Seawind can remove the grill and give you a long bench, or customize that seat. Tables are an easy purchase. The space on the bow deck is noticeably larger, but the cockpits are not that different, nor is the interior space aside from the 1' width. And the bow cushions are available for the 1160 as well. So yes, it comes down to the 100K: Is the additional 3' length/1'width and standard accessories worth 1/3 the boat price? Both can be circumnavigated, and have records of doing so. If you have the extra funds, then you will love the 1260. If your budget is tighter, the 1160 is still an awesome boat that will take you wherever you want to go.
Всегда был противником катамаранов, но с вашей подачи с интересом посмотрел этот обзор. Не хочу сказать что поменял мнение о катамаранах но интерес появился. Удачи в делах и мир вашему дому.
Congratulations on the new addition. I have missed several of your videos, due to work. Randy, you look awesome, but ready to pop. Thank you for your videos. I cant make the Key West event, thats a 2 day drive for me. Hope it's awesome.
If I was in a similar situation as far as expecting a child I'd be looking at the best & most interior room I could find. Remove your I can upgrade in the future mindset & buy like your never going get another chance 🤔😉 Not saying that's the case. Just saying plan ahead for the (didn't see that coming) events that happen to everyone 😲👍 Keep up the great work.
As a 'starter' home for new parents a '3 bedroom, , naturally compartment-ed, multilevel (well engineered) human habitat with a 360 degree view of life and sky (plus storage everywhere) seems roomy, like it could span generations as a family 'go-to' boat as they came aboard or went ashore for school or who knows* what as the years go by. Just have enough kids so there'll always be a skipper on board. *teaching the inner ear about alternate physical rules: static gravity & horizon. Like being out in space, it probably infers some lasting changes over time. **And Poseidon forbid! You should give birth to a landsman! ;) ***Sailing a family... is kind of like starting a cult (the good kind) :)
Wow, I think this is the first time I have ever seen anyone open that forward hatch in the starboard hull! Every time I've seen someone do a walkthrough I always wonder "what's behind that dooooooooooooor?" So THANK YOU for opening it :)
Dual alternators on both of the engines. My guess would be one for engine starting battery charging and the other larger one below for house bank charging. No sweating anybody throwing the switch between starter and house bank with the engines running causing issues.
I'm a little worried about something. As you do these boat tours, you've got a very pregnant Randy pointing out and saying "Here's a birth, . . . and here's a second birth, . . . " All along she's about to give birth! I'm worried that it could be like putting someone's hand in water while they are asleep. I'm worried that on one of these upcoming tours Randy will say "Here's the main birth, . . . Oh no!" and have her first contraction begin. 8 - 0 Besides me having such worries, this was a nice boat tour of a nice boat. I'll have to go for an older monohull, myself, if I ever get a bigger boat that is blue water capable. A low budget is the deciding factor for me.
I don't have to tell everyone that I was using a play on words as a joke, do I? : - ) Oh and I have a sailboat with 4 berths. So that obviously means I was one in a set of quadruplets! . . . . Honest! lol
Having sailed on both boats multiple times, I don’t think the 1260 is worth the extra $100k. Interior is essentially the same. You get more fuel storage on 1269, but at a significantly heavier displacement. The extra 3’ on the 1260 is mostly just for the nicer cockpit.
It feels very haphazard with systems stashed here and there. The vessel felt very unrefined. Great tour. Personally speaking would like a little more discussion of safety systems on the vessels you tour.
I garnered the same feeling with regard to operational systems 'scattered in disparate locations throughout the 'Cat. 1260' contrasted with other 'cats.' the systems of which seemed more centralized, proximal to one another, concentrated. As to a NAV station, facing forward, not to a side, ALWAYS (port or starboard sides. Last: No Wet Heads, shower enclosure needs distinct separation for cleaning ease and much less area to require cleaning to keep MOLD and MILDEW at bay. Truly final, one needs separate freezer and refrigerator compartments for the sake of true blue water, long distance sailng, in my view. Thank you fot your patience!
Light sensible design at a reasonable price and quality. The biggest complaint I have is that many systems are distributed around the boat inefficiently taking up most convenient storage space. Cruisers will undoubtedly be tempted to store things where they fit and eventually damage something expensive and or important far from civilization. If you don't store anything in with equipment this is an expensive small boat. Quality cruisers have smartly designed mechanical rooms -one look to see all is well. This looks like every system is an afterthought.
Comparing the glazing on this boat, and the Lagoon before, you can feel the practicality of upright or vertical glazing. Not only is solar radiation greater on sloped glass, but visibility can be impacted too. Especially where you have a helm situation which has to look through two layers of glazing and might have had tint on it to reduce thermal effects. I think it might be possible to reduce these effects with sloped glass, by having a fixed peak over the windows to provide shade, with vents on the back to exit air trapped beneath
Nice boat, at a great price but it’s hard to find the prices of a nicely equipped model, I’m guessing there is another 100k added here with the options, being batteries, solar, water maker, electric winch, electronics nav autopilot radar etc,
I've seen some listed around 610. I'm going to assume those are basically fully loaded... or heavily marked up due to the hype seawind has been getting. It's hard to imagine a 50% increase without it being pretty nicely equipped though.
They cannot talk of something they do not know. They are just one of many examples of people presenting themselves as connoisseurs by adopting the language but in fact they are only impostors by adopting a behavior that presents themselfs as, quite falsely, credible.
That one is one of the options I am looking at, though at the moment I am leaning towards a monohull again - mainly because I do also want to sail Europe, and catamarans aren't exactly suited to many EU harbors, let alone if you want to do any channels/rivers.
There are a few major benefits to monohulls: 1) Monos are cheaper to buy, maintain and store (harbor, yard, etc). 2) Monos point better on average than cats (trimarans are different). 3) Monos are less affected by weight. If you overload a cat or tri, it can drastically reduce it's performance and safety. In just about every other category, multihulls have the advantage: 1) Cats win on space for living, solar panels and dinghy/toy storage. 2) Multi's on a beam reach or downwind are faster 3) At anchor (or moored), multi's are superior. 4) Shallower draft opens up alot more areas to go on a multi. 5) Most multi's are unsinkable - Huge safety factor if you hit something. 6) People are less likely to get seasick on a multihull. But it still comes down to mostly personal preference (and affordability). Some people swear by their preferred hull type. I've sailed alot on all 3 (monos, cats and tris) and each is a compromise. I have a tri. I want a cat. I might have to settle for a mono $$$.
@@steveturansky9031 All good points, and all on my radar too. Right now, my thinking is: catamarans are just more comfortable for an old gal like me, and they provide better onboard workspaces (I telecommute). The price difference is a bit hard to swallow. While I could afford a cat, it'd seriously hit my savings - both in the short run (purchase) and long run (maintenance). On the other hand, a decent-sized, wide-hull mono might be plenty of room for me. At first I'd only spend summer months on the boat anyway, until retirement, then it'd be fulltime.
Good Vid as usual. I think I would go for something else for the money. While 41'cat can cross oceans. In cat category I would want 50' to 54'. Day cruiser would be great @41' . Just my thoughts.
Just for price comparisons. A new loaded Leopard 50 is around 1,2M and up. It is also a much bigger boat. You can't really compare as the 1260 is a performance cat (600,000 fully loaded). It is a being used for serious cruising and has proven safe ocean crossing capacity. Also it keeps its value as no other cat I know about.
the 1260 looks a lot nicer than the 1160, and seem better in every way if you can afford the slight increase in price. Out of interest have you looked at the 1370 that Seawind is making with input from Ruby Rose
I could never get comfortable stepping on the that trampoline net on them cats I always had nightmares of stepping on and hitting the water and by the time I surface I'm watching the boat headed down range
Yes. On the sides of the hulls the opening ports are escape hatches. It's a much better location than most cat manufacturers who put the hatches near the waterline and if they leak they could sink the boat...
Don’t make her an offender for a word, you don’t come off as an expert for correcting her, she is perfectly genuine in all she does, and on my boat it would be an ELECTRONIC window.
My Nieces & Nephews with babies wont respond to my question. How old do they have to be before you can throw them in the air & catch them? They haven't invited me over either.
your nieces and nephews are probably a little too old and big to be thrown in the air (difficult to catch). the babies? thats a whole other discussion.....................👍
shnboardman1 - this is a design feature that favors performance for the boat. Having the raised berth into the bridge deck allows the hull to be narrower (for performance) while offering a good size bed. Unfortunately you sacrifice the headroom.
In general, I like the vessel, but sisaprove this arrangement. It appears that the Aventura 37 has better spaces and usability than this Seawind. Also, a much better helm station. Unless is a monohull or a 60 footer, no reason to have two posts.
On paper the Aventura 37 sure looks nice. I look forward to seeing reviews when it comes out. But the 1260 is a proven cruiser that just keeps its value. For cruising the 1260 helm setup seems pretty good. Safe/protected for ocean crossing, helmsman is in the middle of the social activities and docking from either side should be a breeze.
@@pierre.a.larsen You're right about the need to be proven, but I have a friend who owns a beaten Aventura 43 and loves it. As per the helm, I know is personal, but I prefer the higher position and never had problem docking either side. Also, galley up feels better, although tightens the saloon. Seawind's configuration may be better for a liveaboard couple who rarely receives guests.
This being a 41 foot performance cat with narrow hulls combined with an owners hull and down below galley leads to certain restrictions compared to the floating mansions. It is still a great boat for a couple or a small cruising family with the occasional guest.
A big turn off for me on this boat is the heads access on starboard hull, when a guest in the aft cabin. Through another cabin!!!! Unless you never plan to have guests in that cabin........
Dont stop opening doors drawers etc.. really like your methods of shows vessels Great job.....Ruby Rose will be closing on the deal 2021 on a 44/45? I believe .... should be interesting to see this . I think that the sailing channels on Utube some how impregnated all these women through some type of APP. There got to be 10 channels all having or had babies in the last two years ...... Congrats it's a boy and he likes sailing Nice name would be Diesel lol Fairwinds from the @captains.chair
Ruby Rose collaborated on a version of the new Seawind 1370. It looks like a great design to me. See: th-cam.com/video/6AsQEg-7oks/w-d-xo.html and: th-cam.com/video/QaemPoISvUI/w-d-xo.html
Boats are such odd things. They cost as much as a house, and can be used as a house. However the don’t appreciate like a house, in facts they depreciate quickly in value after the first few years. More like an RV or a Car. So your committing huge sums of money you know your going to loose. As such I would say keep it as budget friendly as you can, but not so much you feel that you cheap’ed out. In a house I always say go bigger or better if your budget can take it as you will get it back when you go to sell. The same is just not true on a boat.
No but your boat can take you around the world. You can wake up to a new view every morning. If you're writing about depreciation and extensions ect then buy a house.
Hey an open letter to all the channels I watch (@Sailing La Vagabonde, @Sailing Millennial Falcon, @Expedition Drenched, @Sailing Nahoa, @Sailing Parlay Revival, @Sailing Ruby Rose, @Learning the Lines, @Gone with the Wynns, @Tula's Endless Summer, @SAILING into FREEDOM, @Sailing SV Delos, @Sailing Nandji - Frothlyfe, @Sailing Uma, @The O'Kelly's, @MJ Sailing, @Sailing Zatara, @Sailing Popao - Underwater Ally Adventures) Yep I know there are going to be some haters out there and maybe I should not include other channel names in this letter but here goes. As people that are probably making money (some more than others granted) out of the environment and locations you visit AND quite a few of you now have young ones (or on the way) and should be thinking about the planet you are leaving behind for your family. Could you (as a combine group of TH-cam Channels) get some sort of movement going to help save the ocean (and indirectly then the planet). In your years of travel you must have seen the negative effects, whatever they may be (plastic, coral bleaching, lower fish stocks, changing weather patterns etc). Just throwing it out there for discussion. Just think if every sailing channel could rally their audiences into one combined voice how powerful (and global) that could be.

That door design is insane!
Thanks for posting and sharing. Very roomy looking and still very practically designed it looks like.
Congrats on the baby, hopefully all three of you will go sailing shortly

the little things in life ''''''''''😁👍
Dual alternators on both of the engines. My guess would be one for engine starting battery charging and the other larger one below for house bank charging. No sweating anybody throwing the switch between starter and house bank with the engines running causing issues.
Adding a foot of beam means a substantial increase in volume. Foot for foot, beam impacts space more than length.
Love your hair, Randy!
Or is it Randi? Either way, cute hair :)
Have you looked over the Leppard ?
When speaking about cats
That one seems nicely designed
They certainly do.
Would love to see a video as to why you chose the 1160 over the 1260 🙏🙏 and how it would accomodate for your new baby and potentially a second
Cheers
Beautiful boat!
I'm a little worried about something. As you do these boat tours, you've got a very pregnant Randy pointing out and saying "Here's a birth, . . . and here's a second birth, . . .

@balls bag Yeah, that makes sense.
Can you talk more about the performance differences. I am very interested in cruising speeds say at 15 knots and 1 to 2 foot waves. Thanks,
They cannot talk of something they do not know. They are just one of many examples of people presenting themselves as connoisseurs by adopting the language but in fact they are only impostors by adopting a behavior that presents themselfs as, quite falsely, credible.

Great looking cat with lot’s of storage everywhere! Can you tell me if This the model Billy & Sierra have ordered?

I'd take either for sure and be super happy, but if you give me a 1260, slightly more happy.
Have you guys reviewed a Gemini Legacy 35?
Does this cat have a washing machine and /or a dishwasher? I would think a washing machine would be a necessity for a live-a-board especially.
Do the catamarans have an escape path if you find yourself inverted?
Yes. On the sides of the hulls the opening ports are escape hatches. It's a much better location than most cat manufacturers who put the hatches near the waterline and if they leak they could sink the boat...
@10:34. Not "electronic" window, just electric.
Something more to break, which would be super inconvenient at sea too...
Don’t make her an offender for a word, you don’t come off as an expert for correcting her, she is perfectly genuine in all she does, and on my boat it would be an ELECTRONIC window.
What’s with all the Catamarans?
Great video guys! Not thrilled with Seawind Helm position though.
My Nieces & Nephews with babies wont respond to my question.
How old do they have to be before you can throw them in the air & catch them?

your nieces and nephews are probably a little too old and big to be thrown in the air (difficult to catch).

"Length: The 1260 is 3 feet longer.
"
What's the length of the 1160 so that I can add 3 feet to that . What a terrible description .
Nice boat but the lady is amazing! My best to all y'all.
1260 all day. Do it right the 1st time.

@@pierre.a.larsen You're right about the need to be proven, but I have a friend who owns a beaten Aventura 43 and loves it. As per the helm, I know is personal, but I prefer the higher position and never had problem docking either side. Also, galley up feels better, although tightens the saloon. Seawind's configuration may be better for a liveaboard couple who rarely receives guests.
Just watched Ruby Rose talking about their new Seawind. Build starts next year.
👍👍👍👍👍👍
I dont understand why the VIP berthing has its own head and the Owners cabin shares with the aft berth. Strange.
This being a 41 foot performance cat with narrow hulls combined with an owners hull and down below galley leads to certain restrictions compared to the floating mansions. It is still a great boat for a couple or a small cruising family with the occasional guest.
A big turn off for me on this boat is the heads access on starboard hull, when a guest in the aft cabin. Through another cabin!!!! Unless you never plan to have guests in that cabin........
Forward visibility on cats is always bad, but literally zero would be a deal breaker for me.
This guy looks like Peter Parker god dam spider man
Nice but worth the extra 100g's? I'd be good with the lil sis.
I like this Cat but the head room over the master birth seems very Claustrophobic.
Dont stop opening doors drawers etc.. really like your methods of shows vessels Great job.....Ruby Rose will be closing on the deal 2021 on a 44/45? I believe .... should be interesting to see this .
I think that the sailing channels on Utube some how impregnated all these women through some type of APP. There got to be 10 channels all having or had babies in the last two years ......
Congrats it's a boy and he likes sailing Nice name would be Diesel lol

Ruby Rose collaborated on a version of the new Seawind 1370. It looks like a great design to me. See: th-cam.com/video/6AsQEg-7oks/w-d-xo.html and: th-cam.com/video/QaemPoISvUI/w-d-xo.html
how about all the nav equipment....and desalination and redundancies and sails compliments.........NOT BLUE WATER.
I offer 170K
Money pit......
Boats are such odd things. They cost as much as a house, and can be used as a house. However the don’t appreciate like a house, in facts they depreciate quickly in value after the first few years. More like an RV or a Car. So your committing huge sums of money you know your going to loose. As such I would say keep it as budget friendly as you can, but not so much you feel that you cheap’ed out.
In a house I always say go bigger or better if your budget can take it as you will get it back when you go to sell. The same is just not true on a boat.
No but your boat can take you around the world. You can wake up to a new view every morning. If you're writing about depreciation and extensions ect then buy a house.
lave never say sink
No
Hey an open letter to all the channels I watch (@Sailing La Vagabonde, @Sailing Millennial Falcon, @Expedition Drenched, @Sailing Nahoa, @Sailing Parlay Revival, @Sailing Ruby Rose, @Learning the Lines, @Gone with the Wynns, @Tula's Endless Summer, @SAILING into FREEDOM, @Sailing SV Delos, @Sailing Nandji - Frothlyfe, @Sailing Uma, @The O'Kelly's, @MJ Sailing, @Sailing Zatara, @Sailing Popao - Underwater Ally Adventures)
Yep I know there are going to be some haters out there and maybe I should not include other channel names in this letter but here goes.
As people that are probably making money (some more than others granted) out of the environment and locations you visit AND quite a few of you now have young ones (or on the way) and should be thinking about the planet you are leaving behind for your family. Could you (as a combine group of TH-cam Channels) get some sort of movement going to help save the ocean (and indirectly then the planet).
In your years of travel you must have seen the negative effects, whatever they may be (plastic, coral bleaching, lower fish stocks, changing weather patterns etc).
Just throwing it out there for discussion.
Just think if every sailing channel could rally their audiences into one combined voice how powerful (and global) that could be.
But is a Seawind 1190 well built enough to handle rough seas? This video gives a clue:

Double helm not necessary
Not until one breaks or you need visibility on that side while maneuvering in tight quarters, especially while docking.
