Manufacturing Excellence

You start with the best design. You give it shape and form using the best materials. And you employ the best craftsmen in the business to transform those raw materials into a boat that doesn’t just endure, but excels, in the toughest of conditions.

Take a look at this brief overview of how the smoothest riding boats in the world are built, a process that typically takes 9-12 months from idea to water.

Customer Testimonials

“10/5 stars for this business. Mark, Bruce, and Lianne have made my experience buying a World Cat more seamless than I could have imagined. They’re extremely knowledgeable, accommodating, and friendly! If you’re looking for any of the boat styles they offer I couldn’t recommend them enough!

“

- John M. (World Cat 325CC Owner)

“The folks at 50 North are a delight to work with. They made buying our new WorldCat and stress-free and enjoyable experience. They are just great all around, from providing all the information needed to make a buy decision to managing the delivery outfitting of the new boat. Couldn’t have been better!”

- Rick P (World Cat 280DC-X owner)

“As first-time boat buyers, we had several questions. Tim was friendly and incredibly patient. He spent a few months helping us find the right boat. His advice was always centered on what was best for our family and our needs. We purchased a World Cat and are absolutely thrilled with our choice! The entire team walked us through everything from basic boat safety to purchasing the necessary supplies to renting a slip and everything in between. It was truly a white glove experience. We can’t say enough about the outstanding service 50 North provided and what a pleasure they were to work with.”

- Lisa G (World Cat 280DC-X owner)
