World Cat In Big Waves

- I was down at Manasquan Inlet yesterday during the storm and came across one bad-ass sea trial. The waves were breaking over the end of the jetty and these two crazies were seeing if they could catch air in a center console. The boat handled amazingly in the conditions.
That would be a bad place for the engines to cut out! I could only imagine what the Barnegat Inlet looked like on that day! Boat definately handled well!
Omg i didnt know you were into boats
Twin =]
WOW That boat looks very comfortable and dry in those hectic conditions. Very impressive!!
What a bait and switch thay turn around right at the big waves
That is awesome...........The boat tracks like it is on rails.
Looks like they were playing 'just the tip'.
fished my friends 27 worldcat many times, gotta say i think the boat handles much better in the slop than in a flat beam sea, not sure about the stress cracks though, ill leave that to the experts
Incredible and impressive video. Sign me up for a Cat.
Now, for an Albemarle/Carolina Classic video.
These boats are Great, the guys in this video are from PT. Pleasant it is the WC dealer and a Customer.
@deepsouthpoints Not sure what trash talk you are referring to, but there are other cat companies that make a much better boat. Would love to look the boat over in the video and measure the stress cracks. Bet there's tunnel cracks as well!!! JMO
Fucking WOW. Its barley even bobbing (bobing, bobbling?). Love it
Proud Deplorable but not as much as v hulls
Why did the boat go out just to turn around?
@expostfactum. Expostfactum, the WC diesel model has a defective hatch design over the engines & EVC boxes that allowed water to be sucked into the turbos and drain over the electronic controls. The hatch is a 90 degree angle hatch that is not even close to being watertight. These sit on the swim section.
wow we dont hardley go out in shrimp boats in that kinda weather
Ang Ganda nman dyan
So. About that part where he went in big waves. Where was that
at the 1.26 mark
The entire video .
I'm a very avid boat owner. Always wanted a big cat but always wondered what it would do riding broadside in 15 ft swells. Like plywood in big waves I think the pontoons would grab and cause it to flip. Where is ThAT video ?
Who’s fishing in 15ft swells? This isn’t the bering sea
@@cwill114 off the West coast my friend. Where I fish. 20 miles off shore. They hit 15 ft, ,!so you know.
@@gladheateher4now we fish the east coast and run 75 miles one way to the stream. Never have been caught in 15’ swells. You can watch the weather forecast
just a little choppy
Expostfactum, no the problem with the World Cat diesel model was a defective hatch design over the engines and EVC boxes that allowed water to be sucked into the turbos and drain over the electronic controls. The hatch is a 90 degree angle hatch that is not even close to being watertight. These sit on the swim section behind the rear bulkhead.
เอาดินปิดไว้
Those aren't big waves! That's a fairly calm sea in the Northwest. No question they ride well, but does the company stand behind their product?
Recently, met a guy from California who bought a brand new 2005 model diesel and he says he has had nothing but problems with the boat. He says his boat has been in the shop 10 times in the first 2 years, and WC has done near nothing to fix his boat, although he paid for the warranty. This guy says he can't take it out because it breaks down constantly. To me this is not a good situation, as I thought WC was a better company than that?
should of bought a freeman
MotoVisionTV Freeman’s are 600k lol this is 200 ..
Nothing impressive about going through wind and some big rollers.....

Found out that the company will NOT disclose to potential or current owners if a boat has had any major structural damage or service issues, this is "company policy" as the owner of World Cat puts it. Now, for anyone interested in buying a used World cat boat you will never get info from the dealers or the factory if there has been any major repairs or defects.....so BEWARE OF BUYING A USED WORLDCAT BOAT.
A reputable survey should suffice...
Since 2005 World Cat boats get stress cracks just sitting at the dock or on the trailer. Every one I have ever looked at had stress cracks everywhere. Phyllis Manning at WC headquarters said ALL fiberglass boats get stress cracks....I think she is smoking crack. Only lousy built boats get stress cracks all over them was my response.
+worldcat lemon You're a liar. You are the same dude that was stupid enough to buy a diesel inboard worldcat when almost no one buys them and they built so few of them. You spend your days writing crap about them anywhere you can. Why buy a boat that there was hardly any others to do research on and get feedback? You were stupid to buy a boat with no proven track record. They have a ten year hull warranty that they never have to pay on because nothing ever goes wrong with their hull. Time to move on. You got a bad design and it crapped on you, move on.
If you listen close you can hear the cracking sound of stress cracks forming :D
Glacier Bay is still better. Better built, better design, better gel coat...better all around.
Owned by same company.. displacement hull vs. Semi displacement/planning hull.. = different rides
개쩐다
The super Cat diesel that fished in the canyons of the Atlantic suffered severe hull damage due to the beating taken from ocean swells...and that was years ago too. Lessons were un-learned. The makers of pontoon boats warn buyers not to use their boats on the great lakes due to the degrading effects of large swells...take a hint! Limit their use on rivers and inland waters...an engineer talking.
So, have you actually owned or have had hands on experience with catamarans? I noticed I've come across 5 different videos and you post the same fucking thing every time. So, 1 fishing boat you heard about encountered hull damage? If it was a diesel driven cat, it was probably a Baja King Cat and those were junk.....concerned citizen talking.
No comment about being an engineer in this one?? What gives lmao
that was rubbish, didnt even go past the heads and punch into it for a while, weak as piss as it proved nothing. The only decent true Shark Cats are made in Australia and nothing else is anything else but an inferior copy.

This is an embarrassment to all people who love cats, this video should be banned from TH-cam, Australia makes the best cats period, sharkcat 23 will smoke anything in its way
@@samlucaspazz Why do Australians all have such small boats?
@@Eric-zs6rdin australia we build our boats to handle big seas, not run from them
I would like to see the owner of World Cat, Andrew brown, take one of his diesel model boats out in a rough sea. I bet he wouldn't have the guts to do it because they are a death trap. How about it Andrew let's take a diesel ECS model out. We both know a guy in California that has one........I'll buy the fuel!Stay away from diesel model WC"s. World Cat warranty, in my opinion, is a worthless document that will cost owners even more money. Save money and don't buy the warranty.
Just for the record....NMMA CERTIFICATION IS A JOKE. WC pays the NMMA membership dues and wham! The boat gets this worthless marketing stamp, and the consumer thinks it ensures a quality boat........NOT TRUE! Beware builders who make a big deal about NMMA CERTIFICATION!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
