Summary
Overview
Pure Joy is an outstanding example of the highly regarded Seawind 1600 Passagemaker, one of the most capable and well-balanced performance cruising catamarans in the 50-foot class. Designed by the internationally renowned naval architects Reichel / Pugh Yacht Design, the Seawind 1600 combines efficient hull design, advanced composite construction and thoughtful systems engineering to deliver a yacht that excels in both sailing performance and long-distance cruising comfort.
Extensively equipped for global voyaging, Pure Joy benefits from numerous significant upgrades including twin 80HP engines, a 22 kWh lithium battery bank, nearly 2 kW of solar generation, hydrogenerator power generation, dual autopilots, dual watermakers and a comprehensive communications suite including Starlink and satellite systems.
The yacht has successfully completed major legs of the World ARC circumnavigation rally, proving both the capability of the design and the robustness of her systems in real ocean conditions.
