Why buy a cat?

Powercats, or catamarans, offer clear advantages over monohull boats, especially for boating enthusiasts and anglers. Here are the top reasons to consider a Powercat for your next vessel:

More beam

More beam:

The wider beam of a Powercat gives you significantly more space, especially in the bow area. This provides ample room for casting decks, fishing, and storage, making Powercats ideal for anglers. Without the ‘pointed’ shape of the bow of a monohull, a cat gains considerable space forward where our casting decks are.  This gives a massive advantage when it comes to usable space and is why they can offer 360° fishability.

Powercats stability

Superior stability:

Powercats’ twin hulls create better buoyancy, reducing side-to-side motion and ensuring a more stable ride. No more worrying about instability in choppy waters.

Powercats HP

Less HP needed:

Thanks to their design, Powercats offer better fuel economy. With less drag and only 250mm of water displacement, they require less horsepower to get on plane, saving you money at the pump.

Powercats volume

More volume:

Powercats have a bigger beam and get up to 15% more volume. This translates into more space for gear, fishing, or comfortable cruising.

Powercats fantastic fishability

Fantastic fishability:

With wider decks and superior stability, Powercats offer exceptional fishability. The flat casting decks and spacious layout mean anglers can fish from all corners of the boat without stepping on each other.

Powercat's unbeatable ride

Unbeatable ride:

At high speeds, Powercats gain lift and cushioning between their twin hulls, providing a smooth, stable ride even in rough seas. This makes for a more comfortable experience, whether you’re cruising or fishing.

Cats provide significant advantages over their monohulled counterparts, smooth riding, more volume, better economy and unbeatable stability

  1. Jesper Colding,

    Great boats and website.

    I wonder if it’s possible to make the 570 more leisure and lounge friendly. As a fishing setup it looks awesome, but for those days where you just want to cruise and lounge and have a chilled day what is possible. Turn the casting deck at the bow into a sun deck with cushions? A table ? Mounting a small bbq on the rails? Extending the swim platform? Shades?

    • Laura,

      Hi Jesper,

      Thanks so much for the comment and feedback! We can do all sorts – I know of one customer who was planning to put a bean bag on the front casting deck to read a book while out! You could absolutely put sunshade extensions, tables, BBQ – get in touch and we can look into these options for you 🙂
