39' Seawind 1170

The Seawind 1170 is the best sailing catamaran for part or full time cruising in the 41′ and under size range. LaurieSue has been well maintained and extensively upgraded. We have sailed LaurieSue over 10,000 miles and shaken out and addressed any and all bugs associated with a new boat. LaurieSue is bluewater-ready today without the wait times, commissioning costs, shipping hassles, or import duty fees and tariffs.

From the Eastern Caribbean to the Western Caribbean, up the east coast of the US, and all the way to the fjords of Maine, LaurieSue has been an incredibly safe and comfortable vessel for the past 2 1/2 years. We have cruised in calm, glassy conditions, stretched out on the trampolines watching dolphins swim off the bows for hours. We have also spent days at sea in weather we would rather have avoided, but through it all we always felt safe and secure.

LaurieSue has been the perfect platform for hosting our family and friends in some of the most beautiful places in the world. Her shallow draft has let us sneak into anchorages many boats cannot reach. Her large windows offer amazing ventilation, the trifold door opens up the cockpit and saloon into one inviting space (making for one of the best boats to host dinner or sundowners in the anchorage), and her protected helm stations have kept us warm, dry, and secure in even the most challenging conditions.

LaurieSue is our fifth cruising boat and one of the first questions we always ask is: Why are you selling?

The truth is, we want a bigger boat that we can specifically outfit for colder wind-less areas of the world. LaurieSue has an incredible amount of space for her size and has been roomy and comfortable even with guests onboard but as we consider growing our family and having longer term guests aboard we wish to upgrade to a larger overall footprint. Also, LaurieSue is ready to cross oceans or continue sailing through the tropics. She is capable and well-prepared, and we would gladly sail her across the Pacific ourselves tomorrow.
