Advantages of a World Cat Catamaran: A Smoother Ride is Only the Beginning
With a World Cat catamaran, you’ll experience just how smooth, exhilarating, and FUN boating can be. But a smoother ride is just one of the many advantages a dual-hull catamaran offers over a monohull vessel!
Chances are, you’ve experienced a monohull boat. And that means you’ve endured pounding, slamming, and slapping. Monohull manufacturers use deep ‘V’ designs to try to lessen the abuse, but the result is usually just more rocking and rolling whenever you stop or troll the boat.
We’re here to tell you that a World Cat power catamaran offers you a better boating experience without all the exhausting physical abuse. You’ll get greater stability, speed, and a smoother ride in virtually any type of water conditions. Why is a World Cat power catamaran superior to a monohull? Read on for all the reasons your next boat choice should be World Cat!

It all begins with our dual-hull design. And we’ve got two types. While each design shares the same major advantages of a power catamaran – a smoother ride, better stability, and shallower draft – our different hull choices can help you ‘fine tune’ a better boating experience.
Planing Hull
Planing hulls are used in all World Cat catamarans. If you’re looking for speed, you’ll find it with this design. By employing a flatter V-bottom surface, you get on plane quicker for maximum speed. This design delivers race car-like performance, and, while traditional monohull boats slam you hard when coming down, this action is greatly reduced in a World Cat power catamaran. Which means less abuse and more control for you.
Semi-Displacement Hull
Our semi-displacement hull is used in our Glacier Bay Edition boats. This hull design offers a softer ride, and has unique handling characteristics that thousands of satisfied owners swear by. Its unique design provides outstanding sea-keeping and a soft ride by keeping larger sections of the hull in the water for maximum stability while underway. Its balance of hull buoyancy and dynamic lift reduces drag and increases efficiency.
