This is a unique equity partnership designed for experienced sailors who want the "big small cat" experience—more volume than older 42ft+ catamaran designs—without the burden of 100% of the costs and maintenance. The Vessel: July 2024 Excess 11 Owner’s Version (Hull #225) Launched in July 2024, this Pulse Line edition features a taller mast and larger sail area for genuine sailing performance. I personally took delivery in Les Sables and have cruised her to Croatia, Tunisia, and throughout the Med. She is in like-new condition and fully optimized for off-grid live-aboard life. Layout: 3-Cabin Owner’s Version (Private hull for owner). 1200W Solar array, 40GPH Water Maker, 7kg Washing Machine. 3m Aluminum Hypalon RIB with 25Hp Outboard + Custom outboard Lift Cockpit enclosure, exterior shades, interior curtains, and a premium "Pulse Line" finish. The Partnership Model: Transparency & Ease of Exit This is a shared, non-exclusive recreational use agreement through a structured LLC, offering a clear path to equity and a "no-haggling" exit strategy. The numbers bellow are rough estimates. Actual terms to be determined with serious candidates. Deposit: $15,000 (Covers vetting, LLC setup, performance upgrades, and a safety reserve fund - insurance deductible). Equity Payment: $1,000/mo (Owner-financed principal payments). OpEx: $500/mo (Covers insurance, winter storage, and routine maintenance). Exit Strategy: 60-day notice with a payout based on a Fixed Depreciation Table. No surveys or brokers required. You’ll get a check for how much equity you have in the boat plus your share of the safety reserve fund. Scheduling & Use Prime Season: One-month rotating blocks (June–Sept). Shoulder Season: Unlimited "Open Access" (April, May, Oct, Nov). The "Vessel Guardian": Stays over 30 days are encouraged for those wanting a live-aboard experience in exchange for basic upkeep oversight. About us I am an experienced sailor with 7 seasons on Lake Michigan (40ft mono) and 2 seasons on the Atlantic/Med on this very hull. We are a family with two preteen children and are looking for partners who value "owner pride," have cruising experience, and are open to a family-friendly sailing environment. We plan to explore the Med, Caribbean, and beyond. Legal Status The vessel is US Flagged (USCG Documented for private use). No VAT or import duties have been paid. We operate under 'Temporary Admission' in the EU, resetting the 18-month clock via non-EU ports (Montenegro/Albania/Tunisia/Turkey). This model is for private equity partners, not a commercial charter operation, so VAT remains unpaid. Try Before You Buy We are currently sailing Greece. Serious candidates are invited to join us this summer to experience the boat and ensure our families are a good fit before any commitment is made.
