The seller is open to reasonable offers! Bon Temps is a beautiful example of a Seawind 1160 Deluxe with the 3-cabin Owner's Version layout.  She is well equipped and ready to go cruising.  Built in Australia prior to the relocation of production to Vietnam, the Australian Seawind's have a reputation for quality and solid construction. The Seawind 1160's sharp styling and great sailing performance accounts for its renowned reputation as a tried and true liveaboard cruising catamaran.  It is the perfect platform to be operated by a couple but still has plenty of space to comfortably entertain guests.  Smart features like the tri-fold salon door, open layout, and raised cockpit seating give the 1160 a feel of livability like that of a much larger catamaran. Bon Temps is very well maintained with a comprehensive list of upgrade and updates.  Having suffered some minor damage and the lose of her rig while hauled out in St Martin during hurricane Irma, Bon Temps was professionally repaired and benefited from a full refit which left her in better condition than new.  She did not suffer any structural damage.  She came to the US in early 2020 and remained in storage on the hard until 2022, so has only been lightly used in the time since many of the modifications / improvements took place. Bon Temps is a fantastic example of this model.  Come see for yourself!  She is available for showings by appointment in beautiful St Augustine, FL.
