Excess 14 catamaran – Toulon

Yacht Overview

We’ve guided many guests through French sailing, and the Excess 14 catamaran built in 2025 is one of the smartest choices we can recommend for a smooth, comfortable holiday afloat. Based in France, this 13.97 m long, 7.87 m wide cruising platform is designed to feel stable at anchor and confident underway—especially when the breeze shifts. Actually, we’ve noticed that its layout works very well for groups who want privacy without losing togetherness.

On board, there are 6 cabins. For sleeping capacity, it offers 8 berths in the cabins plus 4 additional berths, which makes it practical when friends travel together or families bring extra company. With 4 toilets, morning routines stay calm and efficient. Our guests often tell us the same thing: “We don’t feel squeezed!”

We state with certainty that the electronics and navigation suite are a strong point. The GPS plotter, VHF radio, autopilot, AIS, and wind instruments help you plan and monitor passages with clarity. For safety and situational awareness, that combination matters—especially around busy coastal areas in France.

Comfort is equally well handled. There’s a cockpit shower and teak in the cockpit, and the cockpit table creates a real “outside living room.” For provisioning on longer days, the refrigerator and freezer are genuinely useful. When you want quieter evenings, the sound system and Bluetooth player come into their own.

From our experience, the watermaker is the detail that changes everything for charterers: you can stay out longer without constant stops. Add the electric anchor windlass and electric winches, and handling becomes effortless. And yes—the davit and tender arrangement make day-to-day operations simple!
