Excess 13

Excess 13 – Newest in the range of Excess catamarans

The Excess 13 catamaran benefits from the 40 years of expertise of the Lagoon shipyard, where Excess models are built, as well as the close and longstanding collaboration between the Beneteau group, VPLP architects, and a brand-new partnership with Gilles Piaton for the interior.

The Excess 13 ushers in the new generation of Excess, while maintaining the brand’s distinguishing hull lines and window shape. A generation designed around the principle of “Less is more” with a series of improvements focusing on onboard functionality and comfort, including improved ventilation and foldable platforms at the rear that secure access to the sea.

Helm and cockpit on the Excess 13 sailboat

A sporty design and thrilling sensations

This new catamaran is captivating like others in the line, with its asymmetrical gray hulls, rear-mounted mast, and unmistakable long roof line. The Excess 13, like all the Excess family members, is a sailboat designed to deliver thrills to its crew. Not the thrills of high performance, but rather the pleasure of feeling a living sailboat responding well to the helmsman.

The helm is located as close as possible to the rudders, and is connected to them by lines rather than the more typical hydraulic steering. As a result, this design offers superior sensations, along with fine hulls with reduced wetted surfaces, and ultra-lightweight furniture. The aft-located cockpit creates a spacious foredeck perfect for relaxing at anchor. The Excess 13 guarantees you thrilling sensations and maximum comfort, wherever it takes you.

Smart new features

A lively cruising catamaran should be a relatively lightweight vessel, but also one that requires lower energy consumption and is capable of autonomy. The Excess 13 weighs only 300 kg more than the previous Excess 12, and it has a significant sail area, especially on the optional Pulse Line version.

To aft, the helm benches are extra wide, allowing comfortable seating for several people.

The efficiency of the systems has been meticulously worked on, including improved  ventilation allowing for smaller air conditioning units with lower energy use, as well as an intelligent rainwater collection system integrated into the roof! 

Excess 13 layout

The Excess 13 still features its two trampolines at the bow and a kitchen facing the cockpit.

All cabins have ample headroom and their entrance doors also serve as closet doors, a clever way to reduce the weight of this beautiful catamaran.

The shipyard offers the Excess 13 in two versions. In the 3-cabin version (with individual heads), the owner’s hull offers a dressing room as well as a desk area.

The 4-cabin version (all with individual heads) is particularly well suited to charter operations.

I’ve just come back from my Owner stay in Belize from the Placencia base with my family. It’s a base where I met staff who knew the whole fleet, and did their utmost to keep the equipment in good condition. The atmosphere is very family-oriented, and Yoan and Georges are very helpful, attentive and friendly. Georges knows all his boats by heart. We had a catamaran in very good condition and the pre-departure briefing on everything technical was detailed as never before. Yoan runs the base as if it were his own business, everything for DY, and that’s very rare.

I want to express my thanks and appreciation to your team. I was able to observe how professional and courteous each and every one of your team was to my wife and I – along with the other charter customers getting ready to depart for their sailing adventures. I also want to say thanks for taking good care of our boat. It has been an active winter and spring charter season for our boat and it still looks brand new and well cared after by your maintenance crew.

From identifying the correct vessel and arranging finance to organizing surveys and negotiating pre-sale repairs with the seller, you handled everything, while keeping me fully informed and feeling like everything was in hand. Over a year in and I’m still happy.

I’ve had a great experience working with DreamYachts in the purchase of my Bali catamaran. Being somewhat nervous in making such a large purchase, I found it to be pleasant and calming in working with you, taking the time to answer my questions and explain the nuances of ownership of a boat. Thanks for making a terrifying experience very enjoyable!

I had been thinking for a few years about buying a catamaran, after numerous rentals, so I went to the Grand Pavois and met Gerry Jacob at the Dream Yacht Charter stand. He explained to me perfectly the advantages of the different rental management/boat sales contracts, and I signed for an Astrea 42 the same day. Since then, everything has gone according to plan, I’m delighted and can’t recommend the company enough!

We recently bought a catamaran, and as new sailors, we did not realize the magnitude of how complex it would be. Not only did they make the whole process seamless, they made it educational and enjoyable. They mentored us and were adamant in making sure we were informed every step of the way. We’re deeply grateful for their help.
