About the Excess 11

At 11.42 m the Excess 11 is in the most popular size class for cruising catamarans: big enough for a family or two couples, small enough for a couple to sail short-handed. Her beam of 6.59 m is typical for a cruising catamaran of this length.

Excess was launched in 2019 by Groupe Beneteau as a sportier sister brand to Lagoon, aimed at sailors who want more performance and helm feel.

Buying a used Excess 11

• As a current model she can be ordered new; demo boats and nearly-new boats with remaining warranty are worth looking for.
• Inspect both hulls, keels and rudders for grounding damage and check the bridgedeck for cracks.
• Many Excess boats come out of charter fleets. Ask for the full maintenance log and read our guide Ex-charter or owner’s version?.
• Always commission an independent survey with a haul-out – see our buying checklist.
