2025 Excess Campus: Four Days to Experience The 100% Excess Adventure

Excess Campus

June 3, 2025

This past May 14th to the 17th, 2025, Canet-en-Roussillon was abuzz with activity for the third Excess Campus, an annual event designed to support Excess owners in their new cruising life.

Designed as an interlude for both technical skill building and community support, Excess Campus brought together some thirty participants from locations around the world for a taste of the Excess experience, including training, cruising, and shared moments.

For four days, participants alternated between technical training (mechanical, electronic, electrical, as well as weather… ) led by our partners, Yanmar, RM Nautisme, and Garmin, and practical workshops focusing on docking maneuvers and catamaran maintenance.

This 2025 edition also placed an emphasis on safety at sea, with support from the SNSM of Canet-en-Roussillon, who came to train participants in the best practices in rescue and accident prevention.

Lastly, Excess owners were able to perfect their skills, heading to sea to cruise as a fleet along the Catalan coast.

EXCESS CAMPUS, AN EVENT FOR TRAINING, CONNECTING, AND WELCOMING ABOARD
At Excess, the relationship does not end with the acquisition of a catamaran. In this spirit, the Excess Campus was launched as an immersive and communal training experience, designed to offer Excess owners training and support after their purchase and to fully integrate them into the Excess family. This third Excess Campus was once again a success, already promising beautiful cruising adventures to share!


ABOUT EXCESS
Excess is a brand of catamarans owned by the GROUPE BENETEAU, combining savoir-faire and love of the sea. Launched in September of 2019, Excess offers a line of catamarans with a powerful, distinctive design, with models ranging today from 11 meters to 14 meters in length.

EXCESS: SEEK SENSATIONS
At Excess, thinking differently is not revolutionary. It is simply anchored in the culture of its crew. The Excess ambition is to reimagine the world of catamarans, and to design boats that are at once streamlined and simple, with a structure that merges comfort and performance.

Cruising catamarans with a unique style, a clever, powerful design, and a disruptive attitude characterize the brand.

Excess catamarans offer the pleasure of cruising without sacrificing comfort. Created by and for sailors, Excess catamarans are made for those who love the thrill of sailing, sharing unique emotions, and seeking sensations.
