Seawind Catamarans going into voluntary administration

Discussion in ' Multihulls ' started by Corley , Aug 22, 2012 .

Noticed this article on Seawind over at Sail-world. Looks like the Australian arm of the company is going into administration but business as usual for the Corsair operation in Vietnam which builds the Corsair trimarans and the Seawind 1000xl and 1160 cruising catamarans. http://www.sail-world.com/Australia/Australias-Seawind-Catamarans-in-voluntary-administration/101190

What does the Australian arm mean, you mean the main factory at Belambi south of Sydney. And what does 'voluntary administration' mean,--bankurpt? It says Seawind has been taken over by a firm of accountants. The Director is an accountant.  

What is a voluntary administration? Voluntary administration is an insolvency procedure where the directors of a financially troubled company or a secured creditor with a charge over most of the company’s assets appoint an external administrator called a ‘voluntary administrator’. The role of the voluntary administrator is to investigate the company’s affairs, to report to creditors and to recommend to creditors whether the company should enter into a deed of company arrangement, go into liquidation or be returned to the directors. A voluntary administrator is usually appointed by a company’s directors, after they decide that the company is insolvent or likely to become insolvent. Less commonly, a voluntary administrator may be appointed by a liquidator, provisional liquidator, or a secured creditor.

Still sad because a lot of people will be looking for jobs soon. In my 35 years of business I have never seen one come right. Usually by the time the Directors pull this move they have lined their pockets and covered their tracks. It is always the staff and the creditors that pull the short stick. Anyway still sad to see another boat yard go down.  

The workers of Seawind will be delighted. I was there at the factory 3 months fitting engines to my boat before launch. They mostly had Fridays off to go surfing. Many days I could not get help as they did not have anyone working. Mondays were similar. It was an ongoing difficulty. Its an Australian thing. W_O_R_K a four letter word.

what does it say for the future of corsair marine in the long term to be sold off to some one else again.  

There is something about that in the original poster link.

I got a little concerned as to what was going on. I leaned over and asked a butcher frantically clearing his wares. He said " we shut at 4 pm --all of us do" 4.05 down town Woolongong far suberbs of Sydney on a Saturday afternoon and tumble weed blew through the town . Not one shop stayed open. I tell a lie Woolworths did. It was then that it all came clear and that I would not be applying for a residents Visa. Click to expand...

Those Aussie's really know their trade if they can work 4 days a week and still maintain a competitive position in the market. Although I’m curious to know if they even know what a monohull is, cause all Australian ships seem to be mulithull

Brand: Seawind

Since 1982, Australian owner and experienced sailor Richard Ward has built Seawind from the ground up, focusing on innovative designs that improve the safety and comfort of the entire Seawind line. They began with “off the beach” catamarans in the 9- to 12-foot range, slowly evolving into larger, cruise-worthy vessels. Their first, the Seawind 24, was a 24-foot cruising catamaran that sold over 350 boats.

Between 1991 and today, Seawind has built over 600 vessels, first in Australia. In the mid-2000s, after partnering with Corsair, they moved manufacturing to the Corsair factory in Vietnam. Models include the: • Seawind 850 • Seawind 1000, 1000XL • Seawind 1050 Resort • Seawind 1200, 1250, 1260 • Seawind 1160, 1190 • Seawind 1370 • Seawind 1600

Seawinds were built to allow couples and families to cruise in safety and comfort. The Seawind design philosophy can be summed up by its company-designated acronym:

Sails like a real sailboat Engineered to endure Anyone can operate Weather protected at the helm Indoor/outdoor living Natural ventilation Don’t waste space

Originally built to withstand the harsh coasts of Australia, New Zealand, and the South Pacific, Seawind catamarans can be found sailing the seven seas, either as a charter boat or decked-out cruising vessel.

What Makes Seawind Special? Catamaran designs have come a long way over the past three decades, so it isn’t much to say that innovation is the company’s unique hallmark. With that said, Seawind has distinguished themselves through thoughtful innovations not typically seen on more budget-conscious catamarans.

Construction As the Seawind line evolved, they moved from traditional hand-lay-up GRP construction to a high-tech resin infusion process that utilizes closed molds, vacuum pressure, and a controlled environment for curing. This process significantly improves the strength of the Seawind hulls and reduces weight. Additionally, all seating areas and shelves are integrated into the mold to increase strength and minimize squeaking and groaning while underway.

Living Space Even before the integration of the unique trifold door found between the salon and cockpit area of the 1160 model and beyond, Seawind put significant thought into the living spaces of its catamarans. Through the use of thoughtful design, the Seawind provides a more open layout so guests and crew aren’t sitting on top of each other. In addition, the places where you would normally congregate in the worst weather, like the salon or berths, are located along the areas of the vessel with the least amount of pitch.

Safety In alignment with their design and mission statements, the Seawind models provide safety features that include protected helm stations, three lifelines that stand 36-inches, the placement of sail controls that allow for reefing from the cockpit, and wide, flat decks for ease of movement in weather.

Sailable, Livable Vessels Overall, Seawinds are known to be solid sailing vessels that don’t compromise a lot of comfort for performance. With a wide range of models to take a beginning or seasoned sailor around the world, the Seawinds should not be overlooked in the search for your next catamaran.

SEAWIND 1370

Light and nimble through meticulous design and advanced lightweight construction - but crucially, capable of being heavily loaded with the minimum of impact on performance, this cruising catamaran brings about a generational step forward in catamaran design. the 1370 is built to a well-defined balance of sea handling performance and live aboard comfort demanded by modern cruising sailors., designed for shorthanded couples, the perfect balance of performance & ergonomics.

Seawind Catamarans deployed countless thousands of man-hours in hull design and optimization, and spared no expense in refining the crucial sailing ergonomics suited to a modern cruising couple. The new 1370 catamaran model has the high aim of striking the perfect balance between performance and comfort in a 45’ bluewater cruiser – this catamaran is designed to be the best go-anywhere, live-aboard cruising sailboat available today. Our rigorous design efforts have produced a hull capable of truly thrilling light air and heavy weather speeds and impressive pointing ability while being easy to handle shorthanded or single-handed.

BLUEWATER CRUISING IN UNRIVALLED COMFORT

The best of both worlds high specification with craftsmanship.

This all-new catamaran is equipped with all of the modern necessities, while employing true boatbuilding craftsmanship at every level. The 1370 catamaran model is fitted with exquisitely crafted carpentry throughout, complimented by a well balanced saloon that is bathed in bright natural light and ventilating airflow thanks to Seawinds famed tri-fold door and essential fwd opening window system. The comprehensively equipped galley comes standard with bar fridge, large 130l chest freezer, and an abundance of storage, making it ideal for extended cruising and responding to sailing couples with varying needs for toys and equipment on their own unique voyage.

THE PERFECT BALANCE OF PERFORMANCE & LIFESTYLE

Open-plan living, with saloon, galley, cockpit and helms all on one level, this catamaran boasts incomparable open living area. But not content with ticking all of the boxes, the 1370 catamaran model advances one step further with another Seawind first – the innovative new breakfast (or evening) bar with integrated seating. It will make taking that first rest after a day of fast sailing a truly simple pleasure and serve as a coffee area in the morning when you’re ready to get going. The 1370 includes an integrated cockpit BBQ and sink, as well as foredeck and cockpit lounges.

SAFE & PROTECTED HELMS

This single-level cruising catamaran boasts Seawind Catamarans’ indispensable twin protected helms which offer skippers complete protection and 360 degree visibility. Sheets, reefs and halyards are all led aft to electric sheet winches at the helms making rough, offshore passages more comfortable and achievable from the safety of the dry and protected cockpit.

FAST & EFFICIENT HULL DESIGN

The perfect balance of performance & safety.

For this new catamaran model, striking a balance between performance and safe, comfortable sea keeping has been of utmost importance.  The lightship boat weighs in at only 11 tonnes – incredibly light and nimble for a significantly spacious 45-footer, but crucially the 1370 is capable of being heavily loaded with only the minimum of impact on sailing performance. Countless hours have been invested in Computational Fluid Dynamic (CFD) studies in order to discover the best balance of speed, and comfort under sail enabling Seawind to favor robust systems such as mini keels and spade rudders whilst not sacrificing on cruising performance.

THE BLUEWATER CATAMARAN FOR ADVENTUROUS SAILORS

Adopting all of the best advances made in the last decade of catamaran designs, and incorporating countless innovations in hull dynamics, structural engineering, exotic composite materials and manufacturing methods, where other Seawind Catamarans have been built tough - the 1370 will be bulletproof.

We have taken the feedback of hundreds of existing catamaran owners and sailors, and combined them with the practical experience and build principles of our senior shipwrights, to create a sailboat design and structure that perfectly merged these two perspectives.

The impressive reverse bows on the Seawind 1370 aren’t just a show piece. They are central to this catamaran design, by way of targeting the wave-piercing aspect to their effectiveness in reduce pitching, this hull design provides enhanced sailing comfort and safety through a smoother and more stable ride.

Seawind 1370 ticks all of our boxes

A performance-oriented, safe, bluewater-capable catamaran that is large enough to carry a payload for extended cruising but manageable by two people... The Seawind 1370 ticks all those boxes..." - Sailing Yacht Ruby Rose on the announcement of the new Seawind 1370

We take pride in our happy customers

Your team delivered on every mark. You’ve got an amazing broker in Mark Wattrus and I’m confident you will have continued success moving forward together. He was available 24/7 whenever I had questions. We had a great initial visit on the boat and his marketing plan and photos were superb

I bought a yacht that I had never seen. I did this because I trusted my broker Andrew Holland. It was not an easy job for Andrew, as I am an experienced boat builder and owner of previous yachts, but work in West Africa. Imagine how hard it was to communicate what I was looking for. Andrew came up with exactly what I wanted. He dealt with time delays, all my questions at odd hours, and was there for the survey. He reported honestly and professionally. After buying the yacht, I arrived at the boat on a Sunday night, after dark, after travelling from West Africa to the Caribbean, and found it was better than expected. He never pulled punches and made me aware of shortfalls. I expected to spend my one month leave working on the boat, but actually spent less than one week, and was able to spend 3 weeks sailing – wonderful bonus.

Thank you Andrew for putting up with all my questions, all my worries and all my crazy out of the time zone concerns – you were totally professional, but also I know that if and when we meet up, it will be like a friend finally meeting. You are always welcome on Aseka.

— Beverly Cory

Outstanding company with professional subject matter experts. If I were to buy or sell cruising sailboat, particularly a catamaran, Andrew would be my go to broker.

I have been sailing since I was a child and attended Massachusetts Maritime Academy. But when my wife and I began the process of purchasing an ocean cruising/racing catamaran, I realized that this is a world unto itself. Obviously, we needed to find someone knowledgeable to help us make an informed decision. More importantly, we needed someone honest and willing to put our interests before his or her own. I was lucky to work with Phil Berman at The Multihull Company. He repeatedly shunned the fast buck, choosing instead to work the long road to connect us with the “perfect boat”. I would be glad to recommend Phil and his company to anyone planning to purchase or sell a performance sailing machine.

— Eric Boutiette

Andrew Hodgdon was our broker when we bought our 2018 Lagoon 450F in Antigua in April 2922. He provided great service and was very attentive to our needs. We would highly recommend Andrew and the Multihull Company.

• Seawind Catamarans

About Seawind Catamarans

Why a Seawind – Design Philosophy

Seawind’s range of cruising catamarans are designed by Australians, uniquely for the purpose of allowing couples or families with limited or no cruising experience to safely and comfortably explore the bays, coastlines and islands and between Australia, New Zealand, Asia and across the Pacific. The following design principles have been followed to offer the best experience at sea onboard what we think is the Perfect Pacific Cruiser:

Our Seawind Catamarans

Sail like a Sail Boat

A decisive choice was made early to put sailing performance before pure volume, which is not the case of many modern catamaran designers. By having the main beds above the bridge deck rather than in the hull, allows narrower hull design which cut through the water more efficiently and faster. The benefits of this are that you get to your destination faster and don’t become frustrated by the lag of performance after days at sea or in moderate to light winds. Shelter then Visibility. The only twin helm design in the world that offers unrivaled protection from the harsh southern sun, rain and wind by being located behind a major bulkhead. Add to this, panoramic windows gives you complete visibility in bad weather, and the flexibility to steer from either side of the boat when sailing so you can properly trim your sails, or dock with an optional twin engine control.

Engineered to Endure

The Seawind range is designed specifically to handle the toughest of offshore conditions. All Seawinds are engineered to category A offshore, a comforting thing even for weekend cruisers. All hull / deck joins, bulkheads and shelving are fully glassed for maximum bonding strength and longevity of your boat. In over 400 offshore cruising Seawinds, we have never suffered a major structural failure. No Seawind has ever suffered a mast failure, because of hull flexing or under engineered rig design. All this adds up to total comfort when sailing offshore in any weather. From the rig, to safety lines, to construction methods, the Seawind’s have always been slightly over-engineered for safety. These subtle features often go unnoticed, but ultimately mean you have a stiffer, safer and more reliable boat, including some of the following:

• Three safety life lines all the way around the boat.
• Forward front beam reinforced with carbon and glassed into the deck / hull to form a very stiff monocoque structure on Seawind 1160 LITE.
• Vinyl Ester Resins exclusively used throughout the hull to eliminate blistering (Osmosis). With over 400 large cruising yachts launched & sailing throughout the world, Seawind has never had a case of osmosis which is a claim that few manufacturers can make.

Anyone Can Operate

Catamarans between mid 30 to mid 40 feet are easier to handle, easier to maintain and easier to manage offering a good balance of comfort and low cost of operation without overwhelming the crew to operate. On Seawind’s, all lines and controls feed back to the cockpit and are optimised for one person to operate the boat and easy for novice sailors to use. This feature has enabled many of our owners to cruise as couples or single handed on countless ocean passages.

Weather Protection

The Seawind dual helm stations on all our models are designed to offer 360 degree visability yet protection from the sun and the inevitable bad weather that can occur offshore. The twin helms allows the helmsman to safely sail the boat in crowded conditions without the need to rely on a leeward spotter. The only twin helm design in the world that offers unrivalled protection from the harsh sun, rain and wind by being located behind a major bulkhead. Add to this, panoramic windows gives you complete visibility in bad weather, and the flexibility to steer from either side of the boat when sailing so you can properly trim your sails, or dock with an optional twin engine control.

Indoor/Outdoor Living

Enjoy the spaciousness and freedom of a clutter free cockpit without permanent furniture reducing the cockpit in size. When needed, add a foldaway cockpit table and deck chairs. Then use the cockpit as a work space for setting up equipment, or bring in fish to clean and wash away through the self training deck. You have the flexibility with an uncluttered cockpit to use however you need. Great for parties and larger guest numbers.

Natural Ventilation

No need for expensive air-conditioning and heavy generators with brilliant natural ventilation thanks to extra large opening hatches in the saloon, removable tri-folding door and cross flow ventilation. These boats are designed to handle tropical conditions.

Don’t Waste Space

The galley on a Seawind is akin to the Butler’s Kitchen in many modern homes – Cook your meals on the BBQ upstairs with ice box / drinks fridge close by, and then keep your mess out of your living space and away from guests by hiding it in the open Butlers Galley in the hull. This means you end up with a much larger galley with storage and preparation space comparable to catamarans of 46ft or larger, with the added bonus that your saloon lounge is huge and not impeded by a galley. You don’t end up with wasted space in the hulls filled by useless lounges or vanities. The open design of the saloon effectively makes the galley part of the living space. This unique feature of the SW1160 & SW1250 means that the meals can be prepared away from the living area but not at all isolated from the action. The end result is a living area / lounge equivalent to a 50 footer and a galley that makes cooking for many a pleasure.

Heartily approved of in Australia, best-seller in the USA, Seawind has now arrived in Europe, with a seaworthy and above all clever catamaran: the Seawind 1160.

An innovative concept

Each time it is presented at a boat show, or arrives in an anchorage, the Seawind 1160 attracts the attention of cruising boat enthusiasts, without fail. Why? Quite simply because it does not look like any other catamaran. Built in Australia by the company of the same name, the Seawind 1160 is the worthy descendant of the 24 and especially the famous 1000, which gave the builder its reputation and made it the undisputed leader of Australian construction. Created in 1982, by Richard Ward, the builder is today offering a coherent range, from the 10m to the 12.5m, via the 1160 we are interested in here. These are really liveable catamarans; comfortable, but also capable of taking their owners to the other side of the world.

Original lines, here is the cat from the other side of the world: the Seawind 1160…

Construction

The Seawind 1160 is classically built on female moulds for the hulls and decks, with exterior finishing in gelcoat and non-slip integrated in the decks. The hulls are laminated with vinylester (epoxy) resin between the gelcoat and the foam core. For the other elements, the company has opted for polyester resin. Everything is built to...

Designed by world renowned naval architect Reichel Pugh and backed by Seawind's 35+ years of experience producing high quality cruising catamarans, the 1600 is at the top of the world’s best performing high end luxury catamarans. Using advanced composite construction materials and techniques, this 52’ vessel is the perfect balance of cruising comfort, safety at sea, and performance, while still maintaining ease of operation. This blue water cruising catamaran sets the standard for offshore sailing.

Large Sliding Door Between the Cockpit & Saloon

The saloon & galley are on the same level with beautiful light-oak finishes & walnut flooring throughout, (teak interior option also available).  Floor to ceiling pantry, top-loading freezer and built-in wine storage (10 bottles) are among the elegant features within.  Separate shower stalls and vessel sinks fancify both heads.

Controls Near Each Helm Station

Fully recessed within the hulls, the infused carbon fiber dagger boards do not protrude through the deck leaving a clean flush surface without obstruction. When fully retracted, the Seawind 1600 draws only 2’ 1”, and when the dagger boards are fully deployed, it has a draft of 8’ 6” inches providing maximum windward performance. Dagger board controls, both up & down, are by a continuous line drive winch located near each helm position.

Three or Four-Cabin Layout

A wardrobe style closet and seated vanity area in the Owners cabin allows for greater storage and an enhanced living space.  The port side guest aft cabin has two twin beds or can convert to a queen size bed.
