DESCRIPTION
Seawind 850 XL from 1995 is now offered For Sale exclusively with DBY Boat Sales.
The Seawind 850 XL is praised as a great entry-level cruising catamaran, known for its simple, functional design, compact size, and ability to sail short-handed, featuring a versatile cockpit/saloon area, good accommodation for its size (sleeping 4-7), and solid performance with battened main, furling headsail and powerful 2008 model Honda 20HP outboard.
Reviews highlight its excellent space utilization, level sailing, easy handling, and robust build.
- Design: A compact catamaran designed by Scott Jutson, precursor to the popular Seawind 1000, balancing performance and comfort.
