Worth knowing
Ameracat Inc (dba); cover, cost and conditions
Ameracat is a yard in Fort Pierce on Florida's east coast, in business since 1994 and registered under the name Eastward Fiberglass Tech. It builds glassfibre power catamarans, above all for inshore and offshore fishing, but also for public agencies: boats from the yard serve with the St. Lucie County Sheriff's Office and the Fort Pierce Police Department. Every catamaran is fitted out to the owner's wishes. Dealers describe the second generation of the 27-foot model as built entirely without wood. They are easy to spot by their twin hulls and an open deck laid out for fishing.
Our model records hold two designs, both listed as power catamarans. The Ameracat 27 Gen II measures 8.28 metres, the Ameracat 31 9.44 metres. Both start in 2018 and run into the most recent build years, so the yard is still building them. According to the source, the range goes from 27 to 39 feet, though the larger boats are not in our records.
Twin-hull fishing boats are worked hard, so a used one deserves a careful look. Check the tunnel between the hulls for impact damage, the transom around the engine brackets for cracks, and the deck for soft spots, even on a wood-free build. Ask for the engine hours and service records of both outboards. Rod holders, livewells and electronics are often added by owners, so see how neatly the wiring and plumbing were done. A well kept Ameracat is a dry, stable platform in a chop.
