Qué cubre este vídeo
The Excess 11 catamaran features a low-boom design and lacks a flybridge, prioritizing a responsive, monohull-like sailing experience over the high-volume, flybridge-focused layout of larger Lagoon models.Watch The helm position is located aft, providing direct visibility of the sails and the water, which enhances the sailor's connection to the boat's motion.0:16 During test sails in 5 to 10 knots of true wind, the vessel maintains steady speed and remains maneuverable, with the low center of effort reducing sail movement in light air and waves.34:06 The interior layout maximizes volume through smart use of space, though some sharp corners require protection.3:46 The boat includes a well-executed solar panel installation over the dinghy davits, which provides shade and prevents water accumulation.2:14 The design allows for clear sightlines forward from the cockpit and saloon, keeping the crew engaged with the sailing process.36:58 The Excess 11 offers a more direct, tactile feel than larger cruising catamarans, making it suitable for those who prefer active steering and a closer connection to the sea.27:01
