For New Zealand sailors, cruising is about more than the passage. It is about where the boat can take you: quiet bays, remote coastlines, offshore islands, and Pacific anchorages beyond the routes.
Available on the Excess 11 and Excess 14, the Riders’ Edition is designed for owners who treat their catamaran as a base for adventure. It retains the twin aft helm stations, responsive handling and sailing focus that set Excess apart, then adds a package developed for time on the water.
High-performance DCX grey sails, Pulse Line rigging, black deck hardware, Sunbrella upholstery, a water purification system, electric inflator and Garmin Quatix 8 watch are complemented by hull graphics from artist and surfer Peïo.
From the Bay of Islands and Hauraki Gulf to extended Pacific cruising, the Riders’ Edition delivers the space of a catamaran with a connection to sailing and exploration.
