Seawind 1250 Owners Version

Imagine VII is a Seawind 1250, a highly sought after catamaran that, while an excellent coastal cruiser, is also purpose built for bluewater sailing. Building on the proven success of the Seawind 1160, she offers increased volume, enhanced performance and long range capability, making her equally suited for weekend getaways or serious offshore adventures.

As a larger, more capable evolution of its predecessor, the Seawind 1250 features several key enhancements tailored for extended voyages. These include higher bridgedeck clearance for smoother sailing in rough seas, a wider beam for added stability, increased fuel capacity, and a more powerful rig. Its longer 41ft waterline improves load carrying capacity, balance, and overall sailing performance, qualities that are essential for safe and comfortable offshore passage making.

Imagine VII is one of the final Seawind 1250s to be built in Australia before production shifted to Vietnam, making her especially desirable. She is the popular 3 cabin owner's version, offering excellent accommodation for liveaboard cruising or extended adventures.

The port hull is dedicated to the owner and features a spacious East/West facing island queen berth, ample hanging and storage space, and a generous aft bathroom with separate shower, excellent lighting, and ventilation.
The starboard hull provides guest accommodation with a double berth aft, a well appointed galley midships with excellent visibility and storage, and a queen berth in the forward guest cabin with an en-suited bathroom.

One of Seawind's most praised design elements is the ability to seamlessly integrate the saloon and cockpit into one large open plan space, perfect for entertaining or relaxing at anchor. This is achieved with Seawind signature tri-folding doors, which lift completely out of the way to create an unmatched sense of openness, uncommon in vessels of this size.

Under power, her well maintained 30hp Yanmar diesel engines (with rebuilt saildrives in 2023) provide dependable cruising at around 7 knots, and with a generous 480L fuel capacity, she offers impressive motoring range when needed.

Sailing the Seawind 1250 is both effortless and enjoyable thanks to her balanced sail plan and well thought out helm positions. All lines run through deck organisers back to the twin helm stations, allowing for easy control and short handed sailing. The fully battened mainsail and self tacking jib on a furler make handling simple and efficient, while the dual helms provide excellent visibility for sail trimming, navigating and docking, making the experience not only manageable but fun whether you are sailing solo or with the whole crew.

Imagine VII represents a rare opportunity to own an Australian built Seawind 1250 in the sought after owner's configuration. Combining true offshore capability with comfort, space, and an easy to manage sailing setup, she is ready to take you anywhere in comfort - whether it's coastal cruising, island hopping, or blue water sailing.
