The 2026 Seawind Moreton Bay Rally brought owners together for a weekend of sailing and celebrations, hosted by the Royal Queensland Yacht Squadron, sponsored by Seawind Catamarans and supported by Multihull Central, Seawind’s Australian dealer.
From Moreton Bay to Thailand
A New Adventure for Tillman and Jana
Tillman Rasche won the major lucky dip prize: a free Seawind 1160XL charter in Thailand, provided by Seawind Catamarans.
Tillman and Jana, owners of the Seawind 1160 Deluxe Tonic in Australia, will have the opportunity to experience the latest evolution of the 1160 series while enjoying a new cruising destination.
Congratulations, Tillman! We look forward to welcoming you and Jana aboard in Thailand.
From Light Breezes to Lively Sailing
The weekend began with a VIP viewing of a new Seawind 1170, welcome drinks and a skippers’ briefing at RQYS.
Light winds made for technical sailing before lunch at Horseshoe Bay. The breeze then strengthened, with gusts reaching 22 knots for the sail to Canaipa, where dinner and the awards presentation rounded out the day.
Congratulations to Andrew Stevenson, who won the rally aboard his Seawind 1160 Lite. Other lucky dip winners included Fergus Christie of Y-Knot, receiving Paper Sailor Rock Safety at Sea training, and Daron Hodder of Wind of Change, receiving Bundaberg Rum from Signature Yacht Services.
Thank you to Warren, the organisers, supporters and every owner and crew who joined us. With Seawind’s 45th anniversary celebrations approaching in 2027, we look forward to more opportunities to sail and celebrate together.
