28' Power Cat -

Power Multihulls

28' powercat in developed plywood or composite.

This 28' powercat was designed to be like an all weather pick-up truck on the water. The slender hulls, high bridgedeck and sloping cabin allow it to power through the worst weather. The wide beam reduces wave interference beteen the hulls. This design is very economical to operate and created very little wake. With two motors it will turn 360 degrees in its own length.

The vessel pictured above is a stretched version, about 10% larger than stock. Motors can also be mounted on the hull transoms. A pair of 50 hp outboards will push it to a top speed of 24 knots if weight targets are met.

Plans are available in both plywood/epoxy CM and foam/glass construction.
