Getting Home Safely -- and Comfortably

Out for a fast ride: Jeff Platt, right, and Frank Whedon

I owned a smaller cat before my World Cat. Last season, I was caught out in the canyon in 8'-10'. All of the larger boats went up and over the seas at 7 knots, and I did 30 knots in the trough until I got closer to shore, then cut back flying over the 4 footers. I love the World Cat because it's safe. It doesn't dig in and it doesn't duck dive. In the old boat, I would have called the Coast Guard. In the World Cat I just picked up and went home.

It's fast, economical, comfortable. I have had guys on it that are hard core monohull boaters. After a fast ride in 3 footers, even they swear that the cat rides much better in chop that their monohulls, but they tell me they'd never say that on shore. When you put safety, speed, economy and luxury together, you have a World Cat.
