الحكم النهائي
The Excess 12 is a sporty cruising catamaran that prioritizes sailing feel over pure volume. It offers responsive handling, modest draft for shallow waters, and practical 3- to 4-cabin layouts, but interior space and tankage are less generous than on more comfort-focused cats.

- +Self-tacking jib and large sail plan suit easy short-handed sailing

السلبيات
- −Interior volume is more modest than roomier cruising catamarans
- −Standard engine output is modest for a 39 ft catamaran
- −Fuel and water capacities are adequate, not extensive
- −Best suited to active sailors rather than buyers seeking maximum onboard luxury
The Excess 12 is a 38'7"-class catamaran built around a more performance-oriented brief than many cruising rivals. Designed by VPLP, it uses a light displacement platform, wide beam and fractional sloop rig with a self-tacking jib, which supports easy sail handling and a lively feel under sail. The layout and proportions favor a more engaging sailing experience rather than the highest possible interior volume.
On the water, the boat is generally regarded as quick and responsive for its size, with the rig and sail plan designed to reward active trimming and efficient short-handed cruising. The shallow draft is a practical advantage for coastal cruising and anchoring, while twin small diesels are enough for maneuvering and moderate motoring, though not a strong point if heavy power is a priority.
Inside, the Excess 12 offers 3- to 4-cabin arrangements and a charter-capable guest count, but the tradeoff for performance is less space than on bulkier cruising cats. That makes it comfortable for its class, yet not especially voluminous. Overall value is solid if the goal is a catamaran that sails well, handles easily and feels more spirited than average; buyers prioritizing maximum liveaboard comfort may prefer a roomier alternative.
