excess 13

DESCRIPTION

The Excess 13 is a performance cruising catamaran designed for sailors who want the best of both worlds: exhilarating sailing performance and the comfort, space, and stability to truly enjoy life aboard. At 43 feet, the Excess 13 strikes an ideal balance between performance and livability, combining lightweight construction, asymmetrical hulls, generous sail area, and a thoughtful layout that makes the most of every inch.

Designed by Marc Lombard Yacht Design Group with interiors by Piaton Yacht Design, the Excess 13 embodies the brand’s philosophy of “Designed for sailing, crafted for living.” Direct twin aft helm stations, responsive steering, and an emphasis on sail trim keep the sailing experience engaging, while the catamaran’s wide beam and stable platform provide exceptional comfort underway and at anchor.

Life aboard is equally impressive. The Excess 13 offers expansive indoor and outdoor living spaces, panoramic views, an open galley and cockpit connection, generous storage, and flexible three- or four-cabin layouts. Thoughtful features such as fold-down transoms, dedicated watersports storage, natural ventilation, rainwater collection, and solar and hybrid technology options support a more independent and efficient cruising lifestyle.

ADDITIONAL INFO

The Excess 13 is a performance cruising catamaran designed for sailors who want the freedom to explore farther without sacrificing comfort, livability, or an engaging sailing experience. Developed with input from experienced sailors, owners, dealers, and the Excess Catamarans team, this 43-foot cruising catamaran represents a thoughtful evolution of modern multihull design.

At the heart of the Excess 13 is its innovative asymmetrical hull design. Fine underwater sections and carefully shaped hulls help reduce drag, improve efficiency, and enhance maneuverability under sail. The result is a responsive and performance-oriented cruising catamaran that delivers the stability and space expected from a multihull while maintaining a connection to the sailing experience.

The Excess 13 is designed for both coastal cruising and offshore adventures. Twin aft helm stations provide excellent visibility and direct access to sailing controls, allowing sailors to manage the boat efficiently even when cruising short-handed. Wide, uncluttered side decks and large bridgedeck windows improve visibility and make movement around the boat safe and convenient.

Life aboard is equally well considered. The Excess 13 features a bright, contemporary interior with increased natural light, improved ventilation, and generous storage. The open cockpit and saloon create a seamless indoor-outdoor living space, while the galley serves as a natural center for entertaining. The three-cabin owner’s layout provides a private owner’s hull with a large berth, dedicated work area, dressing room, and extensive storage. A four-cabin configuration is also available for families, guests, or charter use.

Cruising independence is enhanced by a rainwater collection system, 79 gallons of standard freshwater capacity, optional additional tankage, and efficient twin 40-horsepower diesel engines. With a 4’10” draft, the Excess 13 is well suited for Chesapeake Bay sailing, the Bahamas, Caribbean cruising, and extended bluewater adventures.
