During our recent trip to Hainan, China, we met up with someone special. We crossed paths with Mr. Yu, one of our Excess 11 owners.

He shared his feedback with us following the sea trial organised by our dealers aboard this boat: “Easy to handle, ideal for novices, this boat offers solid performance for long-distance voyages”.

In his testimonial, Mr.Yu also compared the Excess 11’s comfort at the helm to that of a monohull thanks in particular to its twin helm stations, as well as the amount of interior space.
