Awards and nominations for the Seawind 1160, with engineering and materials supplied by High Modulus

The Seawind 1160 catamaran made its US debut in September and now is touring the East Coast, picking up some coveted awards and nominations along the way.

At the Annual Newport International Boat Show, Rhode Island, the boat was presented with the award for the ‘Best Sailboat’. The judges commented on its ‘unprecedented interior light and space’ and ‘even the sleeping accommodations below deck offer incredible outside visibility’.

Next stop was Annapolis Boat Show, where the Seawind 1160 learned of its nomination for Cruising World magazine’s Boat of the Year, as well as SAIL magazine’s Top Boat of the Year list.

The Seawind 1160 has been built using High Modulus engineering consultancy and composite materials.
