Seawind 1170 first look: 39ft passagemaking catamaran

  • Toby Hodges
  • February 8, 2024

The newly launched Seawind 1170 is smaller than many new catamaran launches but should still prove a capable passagemaking multihull

39 ft catamaran

Over the past few years Seawind has become increasingly well recognised for its quick cruising catamarans. This 39-foot Seawind 1170 retains key core elements, including relatively light displacement, plus twin aft helm stations with excellent protection and visibility.

There’s also a removable carbon sprit and a pair of windows in the hardtop to monitor sail trim. However, despite its potential to sail for extended periods at speeds above 10 knots, this is not intended as a boat that will be difficult or energetic to sail: a self-tacking jib is standard and the mainsheet traveller is mounted on the hard top, so doesn’t present a danger to anyone in the cockpit.

Despite being smaller than the existing 52ft Seawind 1600 Passagemaker and recent 45ft 1370 models, it’s still intended as a capable ocean cruising multihull , with bright and comfortable accommodation.

It’s easy to assume that all rugged metal yachts are very heavy. While that was the case at one time…

The owner’s cabin in the port hull benefits from a queen size athwartships double berth that creates much more of a feeling of space than many catamarans of this size. Equally, the starboard forward guest cabin has a queen size bed, while there’s a smaller double to be found aft. Unusually, the galley is down in the starboard hull, leaving space for a full-width saloon with navstation.

A pair of big opening hatches in the front of the coachroof are supported on gas struts, while a tri-fold door that swings upwards to sit against the underside of the hard top creates a wide opening between cockpit and saloon.

Stowage on deck includes three large lockers at the front of the bridgedeck, plus further space under the seating in the aft cockpit.

Tankage is also generous at around 500lt for both fuel and water.

The first two prototype 1170s are already afloat, with one of them having been tested in 30-35 knots of head winds and waves of up to 4-5m waves. “Even though we were pushing it hard to test its limits,” designer and Seawind founder Richard Ward reported afterwards, “it felt strong and safe and very dry, even as we crashed off the back of the short, sharp waves.”

Production boats will be built at Seawind’s new factory in Izmir, Turkey, with the first expected to be afloat in mid 2024. This location, a modern city of five million people on the eastern shores of the Aegean, reflects the yard’s desire to capture more of the European market.

39 ft catamaran

The precise moment I came to realize that the new Lagoon 39 was a special entry-level cruising catamaran occurred last February on a windy, 20-knot morning in a significant Atlantic Ocean seaway off the coast of Florida. As we clawed upwind in short, 4- to 6-foot waves in the pumping easterly, I made my way forward to check out the view from the windward bow-pulpit seat. And what I saw was a revelation, especially considering that my perch was aboard a sub-40-foot vessel.

The fine entries of the twin bows sliced through the chop efficiently and with noticeable buoyancy. There was no slamming on the bridgedeck whatsoever. Most surprisingly, as I was prepared for a good dousing, was that with the exception of an odd splash of droplets, I remained completely dry.

Making my way aft, I soon discovered that not only was the ride impressive but so too were the numbers. Hard on the wind, which fluctuated between 18 and 22 knots, and under the self-tacking jib and the square-topped main with a single reef in, we registered 6.1 to 6.4 knots. Cracked off to a close reach, the speedo shot above 7 knots, and eventually settled at 7.5 as we leveled away to a beam reach. As we fell off even more, with the wind on the aft quarter, the speed climbed to 8 knots. What’s more, with all the changes in heading and sail trim, the motion remained fairly smooth and appropriately balanced. It occurred to me that this was something I could get used to.

39 ft catamaran

Down below, the innovative layout also received favorable marks. I’ve long admired cats that reserved the entire starboard hull for an owners suite with a dedicated stateroom that can be closed off for privacy from the central saloon via a sliding door and that includes a king-size double berth aft, a midship desk/vanity, and a large en suite head and separate shower stall forward.

On the Lagoon 39, the builders took this very good, well-executed idea and doubled down on it: The port hull and stateroom is the mirror image of the starboard cabin. At face value, it doesn’t seem revolutionary, but it speaks to the way many owners actually use their boats, and it’s a smart, cool use of space. (And, of course, more traditional three- and four-cabin accommodation plans are also available.)

Yet thoughtful design and efficient systems and features are themes carried out over the entire Lagoon 39, from the top of the double-spreader fractional rig—which is located farther aft than usual, to maximize power and minimize pitching—to the tips of the twin mini-keels that promote stability and lateral resistance.

In between are all sorts of nifty items, including a generous cockpit, a raised helm station, centralized sail controls, and a very nice main saloon, which includes a fine, forward-facing navigation station, a well-laid-out galley, and a generous dining table around which to socialize.

How Lagoon managed all this in less than 40 feet may not be a miracle, but it’s close.

Leopard 39 Review and Common Problems

  • No Comments on Leopard 39 Review and Common Problems

39 ft catamaran

Leopard began their sailing catamaran line-up with a respectable 45-foot catamaran in 1997. Then, seeing a ripe opportunity in the charter industry, they next moved to the Leopard 38 in 1998.

In 2010, Leopard announced the 39 model and proceeded to build 126 hulls of that size through 2015. Crafted from the same hull molds as the Leopard 38, the Leopard 39’s main upgrades include the full hardtop over the cockpit and a raised helm station, also covered with a hardtop. It’s little wonder that the Leopard 39 won the ‘Sail Best Boats 2010’ Cruising Multihull award.

Robertson and Caine’s contribution to the catamaran market cannot be understated. In early 2012, Leopard launched their 1,000th Leopard Catamaran and to date, have launched over 1800 catamarans.

Designed by Morelli & Melvin to replace the Leopard 38, the Leopard 39 is widely used by world cruisers as well as the Sunsail and Moorings charter companies. Offered in an owner’s version with the entire starboard hull dedicated to owner comfort, and the charter version with 4 ample cabins for friends and family.

Here’s what you can expect from a typical Leopard 39:

  • Near 360-Degree Views from Salon and Cockpit. With the removal of the louvered portlights of the Leopard 38 and the addition of large, vertical windows and hatches forward, captain and crew can see far more than before without having to climb into the helm seat.
  • Standard Hard Top over Cockpit and Raised Helm. An improvement on prior models, every Leopard 39 comes with an integrated hard top to protect from sun and weather. There are also plenty of surfaces to mount full enclosures for privacy or simply protection of inclement weather.
  • Swiftness on the Water. It’s been said that the Leopard 39 can outpace her 40’ older sister. Polar diagrams show the Leopard 39 making 7.7 knots in 10 knots of wind on the beam. In 14 knots of wind, she increases to 9.7 knots with winds at the same angle. Heading downwind, she performs best at 135-150 degrees on a broad reach. In 12 knots of wind the vessel will move at over 8 knots.
  • Spacious, Warm Interiors . With 6’5” of headroom in the salon and galley and 360-degree views, no one can complain of “boat cave syndrome” on the Leopard 39. She feels particularly rich with warm wood appointments. As with all of the Leopard models, there is plenty of storage for clothes, provisions, and water toys.

Many Leopard 39 owners extoll her virtues as the perfect size catamaran for couples, small families, or those with extended families who like to visit when moored in exotic places. Her combination of speed, comfort, and ease of sailing contributes to this assessment.

According to John and Rena of SV Delios, “We looked at catamarans in the 38 to 42 feet size range for three years and when it comes to sailing characteristics, livability, and value, nothing even comes close to the Leopard 39. We love the very efficient and functional layout of the Leopard 39…She’s easier to sail and faster than our monohull of the same length. She’s very comfortable to live aboard. She’s ICW friendly. And, she’s easy and less expensive to maintain than other catamarans her size.”

The Leopard 39 is rigged for short-crew handling. With the halyards led to the mast and most other lines led back to the helm station, single-handing may be possible with skill and a system worked out. She also offers ample, flat side decks for ease of movement in rough seas.

What to Watch Out For

Like all Leopard sailing cats, the Leopard 39 is balsa cored, which opens the door to core rot and delamination, especially in vessels used in charter where impacts are high and maintenance is not a top priority.

The Leopard 39 comes stock with twin 21-horsepower Yanmar diesel engines, coupled with an SD20 sail drive. Given the weight of this vessel, some may feel the 21-horsepower engines are insufficient.

There is also an option for twin 29-horsepower Yanmar diesels, coupled with either SD20 or SD50 sail drives. More than a few users have complained about the cone clutches in the SD50s, so be aware of that potential issue if your boat comes with SD50 sail drives. With all sail drives though, vigilant maintenance is the key to long life.

From a comfort standpoint, one drawback to the Leopard 39 is the head size. They tend to be small, especially on the 4-cabin version. Some owners have also complained that the doors didn’t close properly, whether due to poor workmanship or catamaran flex. This can be an issue for guests wishing for a modicum of privacy.

Comfort may also be compromised in confused or rough seas on the nose, as you will experience hobby-horsing and some deck slamming on occasion.

The engines are accessible through hatches near the sugar scoops, making them easier to remove when the time comes. However, maintenance will require a significant amount of boat yoga.

The Bottom Line

A reliable vessel with well-thought out interior spaces, the Leopard 39 can take you across oceans in relative comfort for a cat of her size. Use caution, particularly when considering a former charter catamaran, by ensuring you assess hull and deck integrity. While core rot and delamination is not a death sentence, it is costly to remedy, so leave room in the refit budget if you think it will be an issue with your boat.

After months of design and planning the AmeraCat 396 has finally arrived and in production! Perfect for any offshore fishing, the AmeraCat 396 is sure to meet your every need. With the ability to be powered by 3 engines, up to 400hp each, the 398 is not only fast, it’s efficient and our smoothest riding catamaran to date. It’s unique center sponson gives it a smooth ride on the roughest days. AmeraCat is proud to have engineered this unique 3 sponson hull and we have spent years of research and planning to bring you this innovative hull design. The 25′ Single Engine turns and leans into V turns incredibly! Not only are you able to get all the benefits of a catamaran such as a softer ride and more stability, you get it at almost the same fuel efficiency as a mono hull of similar size! Here are some pics of the new AmeraCat 396 and the specs:
