Benefits of a Powercat

The basic design of the catamaran boat goes back thousands of years.  The stability of the catamaran’s twin hull design allowed people and cargo to be transported safely across the Pacific Ocean.  These are some of the benefits of the catamaran design and of powercats:

  • Twin hulls focus buoyancy around the outside of the boat, creating greater stability.

  • When you fish from the side of a powercat, there is less listing than with a monohull.

  • The wider footprint of a powercat makes it roll less in heavy seas.

  • The expanded deck of a powercat allows a greater load capacity.

  • Two hulls offer more below deck space for storage and living quarters.

  • Additional berth privacy is available with twin hulls.
