Your New Top Cat is...

Congratulations to The Salty Beast , a 330TE, captained by Daniel Medina.

We'd also like to send a big THANK YOU to everyone who submitted their boat name, took time to vote for their favorite, and participated in the fun. We can't wait for next year's Battle of the Cats Competition.

Special Thank You and Congratulations also go out to our 7 other competitors this year: Anchor Management (2nd Place), Reel Mermaid, No Quarter, Carolina Cat'n, Catzilla, Wildcat, and Nauti Kitty

The all-new 235TE is the ‘Tournament Edition’ of our fan-favorite 235CC center console. Boasting a max horsepower of 300HP and a nine-inch draft, this game-changing 23-footer was designed with the ultimate fishing trip in mind. With two 60-gallon fuel tanks, higher gunnels, and more cockpit and bow space, the 235TE makes reeling in your next big catch easier than ever!

The new 235TE features standard port and starboard 150-quart insulated floor fish-boxes with an overboard discharge pump (aft), four gunwale-mounted stainless-steel rod holders, fresh-water shower in the transom, commercial-grade dive ladder and swim platform, saltwater washdown, four forward gunwale-mounted rod/cup holders, and a flip-up bolster leaning post with rocket launchers, tackle drawer, and a 45-quart Yeti cooler with a seat cushion. Also standard on the 235TE are the unique fold-down port and starboard forward bench seats for more casting room in the bow (without eliminating seating for the crew).

Add on the optional GEMLUX deluxe outrigger system with 18' collapsible hybrid poles, and you'll never want to head back to the docks!

Other optional features include four quick-release fender holders; deck-mounted windlass with rode, chain, and anchor; porta-toilet with deck pump-out, additional Yeti 45-quart cooler with a cushion for the aft cockpit or forward console seating; and on-board battery charger.

Essential Safety Tips for Boating with Children

Boating with kids? Put safety first! No matter how confident those little boaters are in the water, a properly fitted life jacket is non-negotiable. It's the ultimate lifesaver and ensures little ones stay afloat when the unexpected happens. In addition to wearing life jackets, the following are a few other important safety measures to keep kids safe:

The Lancasters

We could brag about our catamarans, but we’d rather let you hear from our incredible family of World Cat owners. Meet Brian and Sandra Lancaster, proud owners of a WorldCat 235CC. In fact, the 235CC is the very first boat they’ve ever had! They primarily operate their World Cat on the intercoastal waterways, but also take it out on the open water. Brian loves how it cuts through waves, and Sandra loves to relax upfront with her friends while the guys fish from the back. Join the Lancasters as they share their love of their 235CC and its unparalleled versatility for both relaxation and fishing.

Once you own a World Cat, you are part of an extraordinary family—a family that comes together year after year for our owners’ events. That's because World Cat events aren't just about the vessels; they're about human connection.

Imagine the sun glinting off the waves, the gentle sound of water against the hulls, and a community of World Cat enthusiasts coming together, where they build lifelong friendships that often sail far beyond the shores of the event itself.

Our gatherings are meant for water lovers, where shared experiences create instant connections. Conversations may start with the technicalities of different vessels, the best routes to sail, or the thrill of navigating rough waters, but they naturally transition into deeper discussions about life's adventures, shared sea stories, and a mutual appreciation for the freedom and tranquility of the open water.

For the World Cat family, our owner’s events are something special to mark on the calendar and look forward to all year long. See you there!

If you’re a boater, you know all about the pounding, slapping, exhausting ride of a monohull boat. With a World Cat power catamaran, you get a smoother, more stable ride. That means no more physical abuse – for you or your family and friends. You can stay on the water longer, and go so much farther. You’ll come back with more energy, and fewer bruises. And, along with that comfort, you’ll have the confidence to head out in conditions that keep other boaters on shore. Don’t take our word for it, take a sea trial and experience the World Cat advantages for yourself!
