That certainly was an impressive array of power catamarans at last
week's show in Annapolis!

From the sporty offerings by World Cat, Glacier Bay and Twin Vee to
the spectacular Cumberland 44, you could pick and choose models to
suit your cruising desires and your budget.

As the show highlights, I would have to list, in no special order:

-- MotorCat 30: an exceptional small cruiser that seems to have been
designed and built with care. Augurs well for what we can expect in
the 27-footer that will be introduced in 2006.

-- Highland 35: A new and worthy competitor for the popular PDQ 34.

-- Manta 44 PowerCat: A brand new boat that looks like a winner right
out of the gate.

-- Lagoon Power 43: Now, here is a master stateroom that is truly masterful.

-- ExciteCat 810: two staterooms in a 26.5-footer, simply amazing!
http://www.soundcats.com/FrameExcitecat.htm

-- Endeavour 40 TrawlerCat: Talk about a spacious two-stateroom
liveaboard cruiser!
http://www.endeavourcats.com

-- Livingston 7.5: is it the smallest production power cat for sale
in the U.S.?

-- Prowler 480 Powercat: You gotta love that sleek profile.
http://www.prowlercat.co.za/

-- Cumberland 44: A spectacular yacht that begs to be chartered with
a group of friends. Unless you can afford the $750K bite by yourself.

Question heard most often at the show: What happened to the CS 42 Power Cat?

Regarding the MotorCat 30, it's hard to consider her
as "trailerable" with a 3 meter beam!  Otherwise, it
looks to be a usable choice for those who choose
to select the smallest boat on which they might be
comfortable, rather than the largest boat they can
afford.
