The Excess 13 is making its first West Coast appearance at the 2026 Sausalito Boat Show in California. The 12.99-metre sailing catamaran is on display at Clipper Yacht Harbor from 25 to 27 September.
This is a regional debut rather than a claim that the model has never previously been launched internationally. It gives buyers in the San Francisco Bay region a chance to inspect a yacht that has already been introduced elsewhere.
A new West Coast viewing point
The builder's official announcement explicitly identifies the appearance as the first on the West Coast. That makes Sausalito a useful access point for owners who have previously seen the model only online or would otherwise need to travel much further.
Excess is inviting appointments with its team to review the boat and discuss broader cruising plans. The event dates coincide with the opening day of the three-day show.
The yacht's sailing-led arrangement
The Excess 13 measures 12.99 metres and follows the brand's philosophy of keeping sailing activity connected to the social spaces. Buyers interested in owner-operation can assess the relationship between helm and cockpit on the actual yacht.
Questions worth resolving include deck visibility, the route between steering and sail controls, and access to the hull accommodation. Published photographs are no substitute for observing the physical proportions.
Cruising on the Pacific coast
A buyer considering San Francisco Bay and longer Pacific-coast cruising will have specific questions about local sailing conditions, onboard heating and the availability of regional support. The builder's presence offers a chance to discuss those requirements with the dealer.
No unique West Coast production specification is claimed in the event release. Any prospective order should be based on a written configuration and delivery proposal.
Appointments at Clipper Yacht Harbor
The official invitation names Clipper Yacht Harbor as the display location and confirms 25–27 September 2026. Excess encourages visitors to request an appointment rather than rely on spontaneous access during a busy show.
The debut gives the US market another chance to compare a sub-13-metre catamaran directly with other sailing options. LYG will distinguish subsequent sales or deliveries from this currently confirmed exhibition milestone.
