Excess 14

Additional Information

Accommodation

This Excess 14 is the top of class Owners Version with a layout including the entire Starboard hull dedicated entirely to the masters cabin with a big improvement over common owners layouts in that rather than dedicating massive space to a shower stall ( a cheap way to use space is leave it empty!) the fwd cabin to Starboard is designed as a spacious open-plan walk-in storage closet  -- convertible to a cabin with two single bunks, a invaluable upgrade for serious cruisers!  The Port hull has forward and aft queen bunks, with ensuite heads including separate shower stalls.     The bridgedeck saloon with comfortable seating for lounging or dining both inside and out, while the galley provides ample counter for elaborate cooking when the occasion calls, but outfitted for easy simply meal prep while underway too.  Everywhere throughout you will see thoughtful touches and quality details setting this vessel well apart from the more common 'charter cats' that so many are dealing with,  for cruising today.   Each Cabin has ample ventilation with hatches, ports and fans making her comfortable for tropical cruising as well.

Owners Comments and Boat History 

Her owners chose Kweli after years of serious long-distance cruising, including many ocean crossings on previous monohulls, and she has already proven herself with a safe, comfortable Atlantic passage last season. Inside, the 3-cabin layout offers a true owner’s suite with central bathroom and generous storage—ideal for extended cruising. She’s also fully loaded with nearly every factory option plus major upgrades: a huge solar array, lithium power,  davits, watermaker, upgraded sails, tender package, and more—making her fully autonomous and turnkey for bluewater sailing. The owners are finishing their cruise and plan to sell Kweli by the end of this season - open to earlier offers.

Near new, but old enough to have the bugs worked out- fully spec'd and outfitted for serious cruising. Owners took delivery, learned the boat, crossed the Atlantic, did a season in Caribbean of cruising. Stored on land in Trinidad, Now commissioned for second season and plans were always to sell after this. Open to Offers.
