The ArrowCat 30, a power catamaran designed for family boating, was first introduced to the New Zealand catamaran world as an alternative to the larger power catamaran yachts that are so common in the   Cruising Cat “world”. Designed by acclaimed catamaran designer, Roger Hill, the ArrowCat 30 is a premium midsized family cruising catamaran.

All too often, when searching for a power catamaran, families have to compromise and exchange creature comforts for fishing features. Other catamaran manufacturers place an extreme emphasis on things like “fishability”, working cockpit, livewell size and quantity of rod holders. ArrowCat can give you these features, if you choose them.  More often, however, we give the family what they want.

While other catmaran manufacturers focus mainly on fisherman, ArrowCat focuses on family. With an emphasis on family cruising, the ArrowCat 30 creates a truly unique blend of family friendly features .  In keeping the rugged offshore catamaran design that guarantees the safety , performance and efficiency , most often attributed to  power catamarans hulls, our naval architects have worked together to create the most fuel efficient catamaran in its class.  The ArrowCat 30 is as much as 20% more efficient than similar sized boats, and can achieve higher cruising speeds.  This is truly a  performance cruising catamaran.  

With the ArrowCat 30 , it’s time for family boating. Our focus is not to include more rod holders, bigger livewells and tackle storage, but rather to provide the amenities that your family needs to spend a comfortable weekend together on the water. How about a relaxing over-sized seat with a beautiful “solid wood” table? Or a full topside galley with a stove, microwave and refrigerator? With more standard features such as Shore Power, hot water (2 showers, 2 sinks) and electric toilet, you don’t have to choose which features you can fit on your fishing boat, you only have to choose whether you will fish on your family catamaran.

With comfortable sleeping quarters for up to six and a fully enclosed, separate head compartment with full size toilet, shower and sink, the ArrowCat 30 really is a family Cruising Catamaran.     

These family friendly features have made the iintroduction of the ArrowCat 30 a success world wide.  With Dealers in New Zealand , Australia and the US, come see for yourself why the ArrowCat is the “Only family Catamaran in the Catamaran family.”
