The Cat-Boat, is a typical American boat designed and built in the first half of the 19th century. It was first used as a working boat and then for cruising and racing. With its distinguished profile, the wide beam and strong mast firmly positioned at the extremity of the bow, the Catboat is an integral part of the scenery of any North American bay from New Jersey to Massachussets.
The stories of the Cape Cod fishermen are a testimony to their passion for this excellent sailing boat : fast, easy to manoeuvre single handed and steady on course. All pictorial records dating from 1890 snow large flotillas of Catboats anchored in the harbour at Vineyard and Nantucket. Time has not diminished the appeal of these characteristic boats which have a large number of fans worldwide.

The most advanced technology and modern materials are intelligently combined with fine woods and exquisite finishes to offer to our clients an exclusive craft giving a unique experience.
