Proper engine height is critical for a single-engine cat.
Single engine catamaran cavitation. Most single-engine outboards sport a propeller that turns clockwise or to the right as you look at the transom. Outboard very reliable economical 4 stroke outboard is mounted in a cockpit well safe from swamping and cavitation. Alternatively these cavernous hull rooms can be used for storage of particular value on long passages.
I was impressed by the boat and its special capabilities when I first jumped on board three years ago and nothing has been done to change that opinion only enhance it. The boat did exhibit some cavitation actually ventilation when traveling with a sharp following sea at planing speed. I was planning to add a jack plate to my boat but a.
Just to clarify my Skoota is not a planing cat cruising speed is 15 knots with a single 25hp I agree that for high speeds you need twin engines one behind each hull. It was a little unnerving at first as the engine rpm would rise and fall slightly but did not hurt the boats performance. The boat with twin Suzuki 115s and standard features with trailer can be had for around 65000-68000.
The handling of the 22 BaD Cat is awesome for a single engine cat and it flys and feels like driving a sportscar with no cavitation no ventilation turns on a dime and they really nailed it. The moulded removable cover doubles as a high seat or cockpit table. Raises clear of the water for sailing.
Extra hanging locker space is included. Both of the catamarans have a head in the console which is unusual in a center console catamaran and both self bailing which was really important to us. I have ridden in 2 other 18 catamarans and the Twin Vee was much better in handleing the cavitation problems associated with single engine catamarans but it will still cavitate easily.
The Carolina Cat 23 has the. No one that has seen those things can argue it. The Permatrim should be mounted as close to the raised section as possible without lifting the Permatrim off of the AV plate.
