World Cat 265DC-X (2026-)
2 x 400-hp Yamaha F150XSA2
Brief Summary
Emerging from the world’s largest builder of power catamarans, World Cat, this model carries forward a legacy of North Carolina craftsmanship focused on the "Vectorflo" hull design. The 265DC-X is purpose-built as a multi-mission platform, intended to satisfy both the serious offshore angler and the luxury-minded family. By utilizing twin hulls to slice through waves rather than pounding over them, it provides a level of deck space and steady footing that traditional single-hull boats simply cannot match.
The interior arrangement is centered on a wide-body walk-through that connects a plush bow lounge to a massive, social cockpit. Tucked within the starboard console is a surprisingly roomy changing area and a private, lockable head, while the port side offers a dedicated storage compartment for gear or a compact sleeping space for children. Owners can tailor their craft with a premium entertainment center featuring an electric grill and refrigerator or opt for a heavy-duty hardtop equipped with rocket launchers and specialized outriggers for deep-sea excursions.
- Ultra-Stable Platform: The dual-hull architecture significantly reduces rolling at rest and eliminates jarring impacts while cruising through rougher inlets.
- Convertible Social Zone: A clever aft bench that tucks away completely to open up a wide floor for activities or fishing.
- Sheltered Comfort Station: An integrated private restroom and dressing room hidden within the console for convenience during long days away from the dock.
- Shallow Draft Capability: Designed to navigate skinny water with ease, allowing you to reach secluded beaches and sandbars that other large boats must avoid.
