BUILT TO ORDER, HIGH PERFORMANCE, FISHING CATAMARANS

Tideline fishing catamarans combine the performance, function, and fishability of the newest, high-end offshore fishing cats on the market today with the classic lines and aesthetics of traditional, custom built, sportfishing boats. The North Carolina coast is home to some of the roughest sea conditions on the planet and as a result, the boat building industry in this area is known for producing some of the toughest, most seaworthy boats in the world.

Though the quality and toughness of Tideline Boats are second to none, it’s the comfort of the ride in less-than-ideal conditions that truly sets Tidelines apart from other boats in their size class. The ride is exceptional, but don’t take our word for it. Experience the difference for yourself!

Start fishing, schedule a sea trial, testimonials, 3rd party reviews, our commitment to our customers, quality, and warranty related issues.

As we are located in North Carolina and we sell our boats directly to the customer, and not through dealers, a lot of people wonder how we would a handle warranty claim if one were to arise.  If a customer has a warranty related issue, Tideline and the customer will typically agree upon a 3rd party service provider located in that customer’s area who is capable of doing the work, and then Tideline will cover the cost of the repair. If it’s a significant issue, which we hope never happens but has happened on a couple of occasions, then we’ll bring the boat back to our facility for the repairs.  We do whatever it takes to make sure any issues are handled in such a way that the customer is more than satisfied. You can’t put a dollar amount on your reputation and being a relatively small company as we are, we do whatever it takes to make sure that our reputation is solid and that our customers are happy. In today’s world, one bad internet review can tank business and we operate with that in mind. I think you can talk to any of our existing customers, and they’ll tell you that we truly care about our customers and the products we sell.

Best Catamaran Fishing Boat Brands

20th oct 2023 by lenny rudow.

Choosing the best catamaran fishing boats is no easy task, because in this day and age, you have plenty to choose from. This wasn’t always the case, but in recent years more and more power catamaran fishing boats have been hitting the market. The reasons are simple: Whether you’re looking at an offshore fishing catamaran, inshore catamaran fishing boats, or small catamaran fishing boats, foot-for-foot they tend to run smoother and more efficiently than their monohull brethren. While all the types of fishing boats are different and each has its own advantages and drawbacks, as a general rule, if you want to get to the fish fast in rough seas, nothing is better than a powercat for the job.

It’s tough to try to sort through various builders and nail down the best fishing boat brands , and the increase in the number of catamaran fishing boat manufacturers means choosing the top picks in this genre is as tough as any other. So, which brands are best? Here are our top picks in some of the most important categories and why we think they make the grade.

Catamaran Center Console Boat Brands

This will be a very short section, because virtually all of the catamaran sport fishing boats being built today are center consoles. Yes, some manufacturers offer pilothouse models or cuddy cabins, but those that don’t offer a lineup consisting mostly of center consoles are few and far between. So, keep on reading—the manufacturers we call out as tops for the more specific categories below all fall into the category of best catamaran center console boat brands, as well.

Offshore Fishing Catamaran Brands

Offshore boats need to meet some prerequisites: they have to be large and competent enough to run dozens of miles from shore, have the fuel capacity for cruising hours on end, and of course they need all the fishing accouterments to handle big game pelagics like tunas and billfish. 

In many ways, Freeman is partially responsible for the current wave of cat popularity, because their 34- to 47-foot fleet was quickly adopted by a number of offshore fishing guides after they splashed their first model in 2007. Their boats are known for hat-stripping performance, often cruising comfortably at 50 mph or more, even in a head sea, with top-end speeds sometimes exceeding 70 mph. Tremendous fuel capacity and utterly massive fishboxes are some other traits the Freemans are famous for.

Invincible Boats offers a lineup including both monohulls and power catamarans , with center console cats ranging from 33 to 46 feet plus a 46-foot pilothouse model. These boats post spectacular speeds with cruising in the 50 mph range and often they can break 70 mph at top-end, thanks to semi-asymmetrical hulls with near-vertical inside walls. Invincible is also known for its advanced and customizable livewell systems. On the 46, for example, the boat can be rigged with up to four livewells up to 70 gallons each, fed by a sea chest system with as many as six pumps. 

When judged by the number of hulls built, World Cat is one of the biggest powercat manufacturers in existence, and the company has a lineup that starts small but includes five models from 26 to 40 feet that are up to the task of offshore fishing. They have all the basic fishing features, plenty of range, and comparatively good performance, but what they’re known for when matched up against the competition is a healthy dose of family-friendly features. Unlike some angling-dedicated offshore fishing catamaran models, the World Cats feature lots of comfy seating, roomy head console compartments, freshwater showers, stereo systems, and similar touches that can take the edge off a long day of fishing.

Inshore Fishing Catamaran Boat Brands

Inshore anglers can be just as demanding as the offshore crowd, and when the weather is right many of them will head into the open ocean as well. So, the main defining factor separating offshore fishing catamaran boats from inshore catamaran fishing boats is simply size. And often, the line between the two gets blurred. As a result, you’ll see some newcomers here, but some of the best catamaran fishing boat brands we’ve already talked about could easily pull a repeat performance.

Caymas is a newcomer to the catamaran world, having built only monohulls up to the 2023 model year. Their new 34, however, is an impressive boat which has offshore abilities and will also make an excellent inshore fishing machine. It rides on a set of twin-stepped hulls with 18/22-degree deadrise surfaces at the transom and 50/55-degree entries at the bow, features a Hooker sea chest livewell system with 70 gallons standard and an additional 50 gallons optional, and plenty of high-end perks like lighted stowage compartments, a JL Marine audio system, and USB ports at the helm.

Tideline is a small, semi-custom builder in North Carolina, and their boats can be difficult to find on the market, but we need to mention them here because they build a 24-footer that’s well known as one of the finest inshore hybrid fishing cats around. With twin 200-hp outboards, it boasts 50-plus-mph performance, has an utterly massive forward casting deck for slinging lures to gamefish like reds and specks, and hull draft is a mere 14 inches so it can sneak into the shallows where few anglers tread.

Twin Vee does make some large models intended for offshore use but their 24- to 28-foot center console models are perfect for inshore angling. Better yet for many family fishermen who want a multipurpose platform, they also offer a pair of dual console 24-foot models. Twin Vees have a “compression tunnel” that packs air between the two hulls and compresses it as the boat moves forward, creating a cushion of sorts that makes for an unusually soft ride in choppy seas.

Photo credit: Twin Vee

World Cat is back as we discuss the inshore scene, thanks to models like their 235CC and 260 and 280CC-X. The 235CC is designed like a bay boat, with large fore and aft casting decks, while the 260CC-X features a very unusual drop-down transom design, with the livewell and fishbox shifted into widened aft gunwales. Like other World Cats, these boats have plenty of comfort features to go along with the angling perks.

Small Catamaran Fishing Boat Brands

“Small” is a relative term, and while 20- to 24-footers may seem like small catamaran fishing boats to some folks, they seem mighty big to others. However, the distinction is more or less moot because in the current marketplace, no major production builders drop down below 22 feet, seven inches of LOA (the World Cat 235CC). If you want a cat under this size, you can look for a custom builder or search the used boat market. Twin Vee made plenty of 19- to 22-foot boats in years past, Tideline made a 19, and when they were in operation, catamaran boat brands like Leader and Nautico made a number of powercats between 14 and 21 feet.

Choosing the Best Catamaran Brand For You

Are there some powercat brands out there that build a great boat, but we haven’t mentioned? Absolutely. Arrow Cat builds a pair of interesting cabin boats that aren’t 100-percent fishing machines, but do have semi-fishy cockpits that would work just fine for plenty of people. C Dory makes a 25-footer that falls into the same category. And Aquila , which traditionally built large cruising boats, has recently introduced a 28-foot center console billed as a fishing boat. Any of these, or others, could be the “best” brand for you, depending on your personal needs and tastes. But the power catamaran fishing boat manufacturers we’ve called out here are all arguably at the top of the heap—nd if you take one for a sea trial, we’re betting you’ll agree.

Sea Cat 260 Hybrid: 2021 Boat Buyers Guide

• Updated: December 11, 2020

Sea Cat merged the best of a bay boat and an offshore catamaran, creating the Sea Cat 260 Hybrid.

There is more than 100 years’ combined experience in building high-performance offshore-racing boats under their roof, and they use a lamination schedule formulated by one of the industry’s top naval-engineering firms.

Sea Cat 260 Hybrid

Catamaran hulls come in pairs, but so do other features in the Sea Cat 260 hybrid: two fuel tanks of 60 gallons each, two livewells at 25 gallons per, as well as a pair of Suzuki outboards—up to 600 hp combined—each served by its own fuel tank and battery.

We drove one, and the ride is exemplary. Draft is a shallow 14 inches, ideal for bay fishing while using a bow-mount trolling motor. It planes easily on one of its dual outboards and is happiest in a brisk chop, ably sliding through it, giving the passengers a terrific ride. Then while fishing, it’s as steady as a Falcon 9 landing barge.

It has at least two distinctive skill sets too: fishing inshore or heading offshore. Of survey respondents, 77 percent fished inshore species in the previous year, 54 percent offshore. That’s a substantial overlap.

An aft foldaway seat meets the needs of 44 percent of offshore CC anglers. It’s flanked by a pair of lighted 25-gallon pressurized livewells, enough to please 96 percent of those surveyed. Six gunwale-mounted rod holders match or exceed what 68 percent need.

The massive bow fishing platform tops cavernous storage compartments. In-deck fish boxes in wide passages between helm and gunwale are 7 feet long. One can become a rod locker with an added rack; the other can be divided for more-efficient ice use.

Fishing-friendly options include a fiberglass T-top, custom helm seating housing a custom tackle station, a (third) forward livewell, rod-locker seating with backrest, additional rod holders and T-top rocket launchers, and Llebroc bow cushions and bolsters, for the 40 percent who call it important in a CC fishing boat. Other options include MinnKota factory-installed trolling motor, Wet Sounds speakers, and Garmin or Simrad electronics.

With the twin Suzuki 300 hp motors that Sea Cat recommends, the 260 Hybrid tops out in the mid-60s mph.

Survey Says: On Target

• Massive and flexible storage for fish and gear
• Top-quality hardware, hinges, latches and cleats
• Good fuel efficiency for long range with dual Suzuki outboards
• There is a place for everything, and everything is in its place
• A dream come true for everyone involved
• A unique hybrid

Reader Response

• “Smooth riding in rough waters, roomy for fishing”

Fuel Capacity: 120 gal.

Dry Weight: 4,900 lb. plus power

Max HP: 600

Sea Cat 260 Hybrid Bay Catamaran Boat Review

Sea Cat 260 Hybrid Bay Catamaran

The Sea Cat 260 Hybrid Bay offers top speeds of 65-MPH with the 600-HP power option seen here but twin 140’s still pushes her along nicely.

The nature of a Catamaran deck cap offers additional square footage to move around on deck forward.

The ability to add a trolling motor to this 26-footer aids your fishing capabilities greatly.

From rod lockers to insulated fish holds to dry storage, this deck style offers all of it.

Black powder coating and gelcoat on the hardtop underside aid in glare removal on bright sunny days.

This deflector style wind screen frames in a pair of MFD units nicely at the helm face.

The trim work and upholstery on this tandem seat helm station is plush and extremely comfortable.

At the rear of the helm station is a super clean rigging station with tackle storage and a slide track cooler system.

The 260 Hybrid Bay provides plenty of comfortable seating as well during a break from the fishing.

More below deck space flanks each side of the console for fish or gear storage.

You will not find a cleaner more carefully laid out wiring scheme than this and a comprehensive diagram and index identifies each wire separately.

Flip the seat down and a casting deck opens up with matching 25-gallon pressurized live wells on either end.

Bilge systems access is available to port and starboard in the cockpit.

A comfortable riding spot appears by deploying this wide and deep convertible bench at the rear casting deck.

2023 Boat Buyers Guide: Catamarans

• By Karl Anderson
• December 27, 2022

The popularity of the multihull (aka catamaran or cat) fishing boats has never been greater, as more and more boatbuilders enter this growing segment of the market. The inherent stability of the catamaran design rolls less with the seas, making fishing offshore less tiresome and more comfortable. Available from 20 to 48 feet, catamarans typically offer a large fishing platform with generous storage and fishing amenities. They are available in a wide variety of deck layouts, including center-consoles, dual-consoles, and even pilothouse and express variants.

Big Picture

The large deck area of a catamaran enables many large underdeck storage lockers and insulated fish boxes in the sponsons. This gives anglers ample room for gear and the day’s catch. The catamaran’s stability, fishability, and smooth ride in rough seas make it attractive to anglers as well as day-cruisers. A center-console version adds 360 degrees of angler access to the rail. With the dual-console design, generous seating behind a beam-to-beam windshield makes for a great family fishing-friendly setup.

Live bait is one of the most popular types of fishing in virtually every coastal zone. To do it successfully requires optimal water capacity and proper flow. The minimum size of the outflow water plumbing should be twice the size of the inflow. The plumbing should have a drain at the bottom to shed scales at the end of the day, as well as a drain at the top of the well to adjust capacity and allow overflow. Above-deck transom-mounted wells should fully flood to the lids when running to keep baits from getting beat up. 

Tip: A sump box with multiple pumps in case a pump fails is the best setup for first-rate livewells. Conveniently located inflow and outflow valves make it easy to optimize the flow without tiring your bait from swimming too much in the well. 

Rod Storage

Having enough rod holders is essential to be successful for opportunity fishing. Look for vertical rod storage along the console and across the back of the T-top. Many models also have rod holders along the outboard transom wall. Having plenty of gunwale rod holders for drift- and kite-fishing is helpful. 

Tip: Placing adjustable swivel rod holders by Gemlux makes deep-dropping, lure-fishing and drifting even easier because they allow your rods to face the direction the baits are fishing, yet they can be swiveled back to keep rods from sticking out of the boat while running and docking. 

Manufacturers often offer multiple choices for horsepower, but whatever the choice, the engines must come in pairs. For example, you might order twin outboards (one for each sponson) or four outboards (two for each sponson), but single- or triple-outboard configurations are not common on a cat. Optimal selection should be made based on user load, weight of the boat, ride comfort , performance desires, and best case for resale. It’s a rare day when you can run wide open, but having more horsepower gives better torque at slower speeds and thus better control. Running larger engines slower gives better fuel efficiency too.

Tip: When possible, choose the highest horsepower offered because it typically leads to a better resale value with a shorter sales cycle. 

Power steering from engine manufacturer Optimus or SeaStar is essential with the higher horsepower required for larger boats, and it makes installing and operating the upper station in a tower far more practical and comfortable.

With the power demands of electronics, livewell pumps, stereo amps and more, it is wise to have at least two house batteries, and for larger boats, a third or fourth with a multibank charger for dockside. Each engine should have its own dedicated battery as well. 

Typically choosing the largest screen or multiple screens that will fit on the console is best-case scenario for ease of use, ergonomics, and visibility. VHF radios, stereo controller, and equipment switches for lighting, pumps, and accessories should all be integrated with greatest visibility and ease of operator reach. 

A Tale of Two Hulls 

A catamaran rides on pair of hulls, or sponsons, each thinner and sharper than  that of a similarly sized monohull boat. The narrow sponsons of the cat tend to slice easily through water to deliver a smooth ride, even in rough seas. At the same time, with the sponsons positioned out to the sides of the boat, cats tend to roll less, thus providing great stability to enhance crew comfort, security and safety. However, cats tend to corner more flatly than a monohull, and some hulls (but not all) tend to lean outward versus inward during a turn.

Experts Say

Newer designs such as Invincible’s Morelli and Melvin-designed semi-asymmetrical sponsons eliminate some of the negatives of the cat design, such as “sneezing,” where water sprays out the front of the boat when hitting a wave. They’ve also controlled the uncomfortable “outboard lean” ­sensation common in older designs when in a turn. Once transitioned to a ­catamaran, many become true believers and preach the benefits of the design.

Editor Says: Saltwater fishing cats not only offer superb stability and smooth ride, but some also display exceptional speed and range. I recall one trip out of Key West, Florida, aboard an Invincible 40 Cat with four 350 hp outboards to the Dry Tortugas. It was a 60-mile run, and we made it there in 70 minutes. We caught more fish than our arms could bear, and then dashed back to Key West, arriving in time for cocktail hour on the same day. -Jim Hendricks, Staff Editor, Boating and Fishing Group

With the ability to be powered by 3 engines, up to 400hp each, the 398 is not only fast, it’s efficient and our smoothest riding catamaran to date. It’s unique center sponson gives it a smooth ride on the roughest days. AmeraCat is proud to have engineered this unique 3 sponson hull and we have spent years of research and planning to bring you this innovative hull design. The 25′ Single Engine turns and leans into V turns incredibly! Not only are you able to get all the benefits of a catamaran such as a softer ride and more stability, you get it at almost the same fuel efficiency as a mono hull of similar size!

Shoalwater Boats - V Hull Flats and Catamaran Fishing Boats

Shoalwater fishing boats has earned a reputation as the premier fishing boat manufacture through hard work, attention to detail and quality control.

We manufacture many style and models of catamaran style fishing boats, from 19' to 25' Catamaran hulls. All of our fishing boats are center console, featuring tunnel hull design for extremely shallow water running. They perform equally well in deep water. We have had great success in marketing our 23' Catamaran as a recreational boat. It is designed after a racing boat hull and is very popular with the younger crowd as a play boat. It is also a favorite with fly fishermen and fishing guides for shallow water fishing.

Our Cat Hull series features include a dual shaped bow for pounding through rough seas while maintaining a nearly flat stern (from the console aft). This design is the best of both worlds, rough water and shallow running. Our rolled gunnels provide splash down for extremely dry ride and extra lift.

The 23' Catamaran suits the family boaters to the Fishing Guides. It is 8' 8" wide and will run about 60 mph with a 200 hp motor. It is a very smooth, stable and dry ride. It is excellent for skiing and family fun, but Dad still has his fishing boat. It will float in about 8 inches of water.

We Package all our shallow water fishing boats with Mercury Marine Motors. If you choose, our dealers will outfit your boat with any motor you like. Let us know what you prefer.

For serious fishing, family boating or just playing on the water, we have the boat for you. Please give one of our dealers a call for more information, brochures or to arrange a demo ride.

Catamaran Fishing Boats? Good or Bad??

• Thread starter RangerRob
• Start date Jan 1, 2007
• Jan 1, 2007

Looking at a 19 to 22 foot catamaran fishing boat for both lakes and bay fishing. I am considering these boats or any opinions, good and bad. I am only considering them because they can handle shallow bays from 8" to 10" and offshore fishing too. I understand the hul can handle rough water better than V-Hulls. Is this true? Has anyone rode in one? Twin Vee Baycat 19 http://www.twinveeboats.com/19cc.htm FastCat http://www.fastcatmarine.com/ SeaCat Comet 20 http://www.twinveeboats.com/seacat/20cc.htm I need some feed back on the ride, performance and etc.....I need advise on those that have compared the Catamaran and V-Hull style of boats. Thanks and Happy New Year!

Re: Catamaran Fishing Boats? Good or Bad?? There several party boats running out of San Francisco Bay and everyone try to get on them first so hard to get a ride. They are faster use less fuel and ride better but not cheap. Only time I would worry is when the swell are so big and close together that the area between the hulls hits the swells and lifts the boat. Fishermen like them for the ocean here.

Re: Catamaran Fishing Boats? Good or Bad?? The FastCat is a high performance design. Very different from the TwinVee. Be sure to get a demo and see for yourself how cats run. Some folks love 'em, some won't go near 'em. Kelly Cook

Re: Catamaran Fishing Boats? Good or Bad?? every boat has it's pro's and con's. look around and see what is the most used style boat in your area,  

Supreme Mariner

Re: Catamaran Fishing Boats? Good or Bad?? Rob, The "hype" on Power Cats is that when planing, air under the center part of the hull provides lift, thereby giving a softer ride than the mono hull. I find it hard to believe that a Cat will out ride a mono hull in rough water. I base this on the unlimited hydroplane boats on the ocean racing circuit. The cats are faster then the monohulls, so when the conditions are calm, the cats win. When it gets rough however, the monohulls win, because they ride better in the big waves.

Re: Catamaran Fishing Boats? Good or Bad?? Results on customer input for fishing catamarans as follows. All agree that the catamaran rides alot better than conventional V-hulls. Also can withstand 4-5 foot waves in the gulf and draft less than 10" on some cats. The manufacture list and links below are of the top performers that customers like the best. This list was compiled from five other forums.

Most said I would have to go to Houston for the FastCat C20 and Victoria for the SeaCat test drive. Again, I am looking for a bass and bay boat....I will post my results!

Re: Catamaran Fishing Boats? Good or Bad?? Rob, It is not that I don't trust articles published by Catamaran manufacturers, but "I'm from Missouri", when it comes to evaluation of performance, by people with interest in seeing you purchase one of their products. I am starting to see power cats bought by my neighbors. Perhaps one will take me for a ride, and I will have some first hand experience. However, good ride or not, they are IMHO, ugly boats! PS usually when you buy a cat, you need to buy two motors as well.

Re: Catamaran Fishing Boats? Good or Bad?? I've been doing research for over a year and I just decided to go ahead and buy a Prokat 26 dual console cat. I could not be happier with my decision. The boat is so versatil that I go to the same places my kids go in their Boston Whaler. At the same time, the ride offshore is even better than advertized. For those that still think that mono-hulls are better I suggest you go out on a very rough day a ride both a cat and a mono-hull and compare notes. You won't believe how much better the cat takes on the big seas.

Re: Catamaran Fishing Boats? Good or Bad?? You can't use the "what is everyone else using" trick in this case, because most people either can't afford them, are put off by their looks, or didn't know they existed. Besides, who cares what everyone else is doing. Just find out a way to run one in the conditions you expect to see, and make your decision based on your experience with it. Also, if you do talk to owners, make sure you talk to owners who actually use the boat for more than just putting around. Look for someone who uses the boat like you want to. To many people base their decisions on someone else and that someone else might not have a clue at all...

Re: Catamaran Fishing Boats? Good or Bad for water skiing?? Re: Catamaran Fishing Boats? Good or Bad for water skiing?? My husband is looking at buying a caracal or some other catamaran fishing boat...the kids and I don't fish, we water ski behind our boston whaler over 20 years old. Does anyone out there have information about water skiing behind a catamaran? We are on the Gulf of Mexico out of Florida. I need some help, advice and information. Thanks.

Re: Catamaran Fishing Boats? Good or Bad?? This is a 3 year old thread, start a new thread in the water-ski forum to get more answers. My guess is they would be no good for anyone serious about watersports, keep the whaler for that. There is no such thing as a boat that is good for everything.
