World Cat announces start of production of the all-new 260CC-X Center Console

by World Cat Boats 8 Nov 2022 15:46 GMT

World Cat Boats - the largest producer of power catamarans in the world - announces the all-new 260CC-X Center Console to its model lineup. Pre-launched in the spring of 2022, the 260CC-X is now available and in production.

The 260CC-X is the sixth model in the center console lineup. This 260CC-X model features a standard wrap around U-lounge bow seating area with a self-storing bow filler and casting deck; side console vertical rod storage; an integrated powder coated aluminum frame and windshield system with manual forward vent and a fiberglass T-top featuring two LED spreader lights, four LED recessed lights and red/white helm lights...just to name a few.

Also standard on the 260CC-X is a unique full transom with a fold-down 50" bench seat that converts to a flush, aft casting deck.

"When designing the 260CC-X we knew there was a market need within our own model offering for this new 260CC-X, but we also wanted this model to showcase the innovation World Cat is known for," said World Cat Vice President of Sales & Marketing Chad Armstrong. "With the popularity of our "X" hulls over the years, initially debuted with our 28' center and dual console models, we maintained the hull design for optimum performance and styling while loading the model with features topside. The convertible transom bench, combined with the rod holders in the gunwale and side console, fish boxes, livewell, tackle storage, as well as the leaning post with rocket launchers and 65-quart Yeti cooler also showcase the all-around fishability of this model. We are extremely excited for all that this new model has to offer."

The new 260CC-X also boasts a draft of 14", allowing customers the ability to fish inshore as well as having the performance, stability and safety offshore that World Cat models are known for.

Optional features on the 260CC-X include a T-top mounted LED forward light bar, removable/fold-away bow-seating backrests, quick release fender holders, an electric marine head with an eight-gallon holding tank and overboard discharge, T-top rocket launchers with a ski tow frame upgrade and a RGB light upgrade including courtesy, hardtop, cockpit, under gunwale, console accent and UW lights and speakers.

Headquartered in Tarboro, NC, with an additional production facility in Greenville, NC, World Cat manufactures outboard-powered center and dual console catamaran models ranging from 23'-40'. World Cat models are known for their versatility, legendary smooth ride, class-leading available deck space, and performance... A Better Way To Boat™.
