If you have wanted a new Seawind but did not want to build new from the factory, this listing might be just what you’ve been waiting for!

This exceptional 2023 Seawind 1160 Lite is one of those rare opportunities that simply does not come along often. Offered in like-new condition and loaded with premium factory options and thoughtful upgrades, this yacht has seen remarkably light use. In fact, many of the onboard appliances have never been used, giving the next owner the opportunity to enjoy a vessel that still feels fresh from the factory.

Unlike most 1160 Lite models on the market, this yacht is equipped with reliable inboard diesel engines rather than outboards. The result is exceptional fuel economy, increased range, simplified weight distribution, and the confidence that comes with proven diesel propulsion for serious coastal cruising and offshore blue water adventures.

Even better, this yacht has already been properly imported into the United States,and all import duties have been paid. In today’s market, that represents a significant financial advantage, allowing the next owner to avoid the uncertainty and additional expense of current import tariffs.

From the moment you step aboard, it is obvious this yacht has been cared for to an exceptionally high standard. Every surface reflects meticulous ownership, while the extensive equipment list means there is virtually nothing left to add. Simply provision the boat, cast off the lines, and begin your next adventure.
