A Thousand Ways to Have More Fun


The basic design of the catamaran vessel has been around for hundreds of years. But with todays upgraded technology and design, catamarans are a viable option for every boater.

 

With advancements in seaworthiness, safety, stability, ease of use, and fuel efficiency, your Twin Vee is your key to an ocean of opportunity for work, pleasure, and leisure. Whether you use yours for daysailing, chartering, fishing, or traveling the world over open oceans, our PowerCats are there for you.

 

If youre looking for a little inspiration, youll find a few of the most popular uses of our catamaran fleet below.



Until next time,

The Twin Vee Team

Fishing 

Fishing

With a wide and stable design, catamaran vessels make for excellent fishing boats. The two-hull design makes for a more maneuverable vessel at low speeds and a lower righting moment compared to monohull vessels, making them ideal for fishing for their maneuverability. As an added benefit, catamarans offer increased stability and a wide open deck that gives you, your family, or your customers plenty of room to move around as you vie for choice fishing on the water and in the open ocean.

Diving and Snorkeling

Diving and Snorkeling

Between an ultra-smooth ride and plenty of deck space, catamaran vessels are excellent for day trips to adventure for you and your loved ones or your customers. With plenty of deck and storage space and a shallow draft for shallow waters, diving, snorkeling, tubing, and more are at your fingertips wherever you go.

From Port to Port 

From Port to Port

For long-distance journeys across the ocean, the catamaran design cant be beat. Catamarans are considered much safer than similarly sized monohulls over oceans because the design offers increased comfort during motion, higher speed capabilities, and extra buoyancy. Catamarans can travel more than 200 miles in a day. But more importantly, their buoyancy, stability, and speed make it possible to navigate rough waters and outrun inclement weather as you travel across miles of open ocean. 

At the Sandbar 

At the Sandbar

Powercats are extremely easy to maneuver, making them perfect for anchoring and adventuring. You can take your powercat to the shallow waters at your favorite sandbar just as easily as you can take it to the islands, ports, or docks. With a sturdy, stable design, catamarans can handle deep, rough waters and calm, shallow waters with ease. Theyre perfect for day trips, picnics, and getaways to beaches and sandbars any time of day.
