Worth knowing
Technostrat; cover, cost and conditions
Technostrat appears in our records as a supplier of compact motorboats. We hold no verifiable details on where it is based or how it began, so this page describes the brand through its range alone. That range is made of small open boats between three and just over five metres, split into three lines: Catcher, River and XTS. The number in each name tracks the length in centimetres, from the 3.62 metre Catcher 360 to the 5.3 metre Catcher 530.
Our model records list nine motorboats. Catcher is the broadest line with five models: the Catcher 360, 440, 495 and 530 carry the Technostrat name, and a 4.8 metre Catcher 480 appears without it for build years 2003 to 2015, the earliest entry. The other Catchers start in 2005, the 440 not until 2013. The 3 metre River 300 follows in 2010 and the XTS 300, 360 and 440 in 2018. Eight of the nine are recorded into the latest build years, and lengths run from 3 metres (River 300, XTS 300) to 5.3 metres (Catcher 530).
Boats this size are made for lakes, rivers and sheltered coastal water, for fishing, as a tender or for short runs. They are light enough for a small car trailer and fit in a garage, which keeps them out of the weather. Before launching, check the transom where the outboard clamps on, the drain plug and the trailer lights; after salt water, hosing down hull, engine and trailer adds years.
