Excess 11 & 12

Excess 11 & 12 - Bareboat Catamarans

From the Beneteau Group comes the Excess range of catamarans that first hit the water in 2021. This craft represents another reminder of just how far catamaran design and innovation has come in recent years. The Excess 11 is the smallest boat in the range, its flybridge-free design ideal for charter by a family group and couples. It is complemented in some destinations by the slightly larger (11.8m) Excess 12 from the same drawing board.

Length:
11.42m, 37'
Charter Type:
Bareboat
Guests:
8
Cabins:
up to 4 double + 2 child bow singles

In creating the Excess catamaran the designers sought to develop a sportier-looking range than the well-tried and tested Lagoon, which it effectively replaces at the lower end of the size range. There was also a stated objective to create a more direct sailing experience; a catamaran for sailors who like to feel the wind in their hair.

The big difference between the Excess 11 and the Lagoon 38 is the twin helm stations right at the back of the boat. This positioning serves to increase living space with the cockpit and saloon becoming one big platform. Without the flybridge of larger catamarans, as well as more headroom there's space for a larger mainsail area with lower boom for better sailing performance than may be expected of a cat. 

The Excess 11 has three or four double cabins with some including child singles in the bows. This model is a large-scale production catamaran made with modern materials to maximise space and performance, laid out so everyone can congregate together and enjoy the ride. Well worth considering if you're looking for an entry-level charter catamaran that's good to sail, easy to manoeuver and comfortable to holiday aboard.   

The Exess 12 simply has some extra space created by its11.8m length and 6.73m width. This boat is comparable to the Lagoon 40 but comes out signficantly lighter with application of the latest design concepts and production techniques. .
