1st Vacuum Infused Hull - 320CC

At World Cat we are always trying to improve our products and build the best possible boat on the market. In designing the 320CC Center Console we went back to the drawing board to design a product from the hull up... this boat builds on our popular 290CC while giving the customer increased beam and length, as well as additional features.

Additionally, the hull for this boat is built using the best possible methods of boat production, vacuum infusion. As a company we are using this boat as our first foray into vacuum infusion... this will result in a product that is bulletproof, while reducing weight of the finished product. No other production catamaran builder is able to boast this advanced technology.

This technology allows us to meet our requirements of strength, rigidity, and low weight. Additionally, this boat will include a two-piece fiberglass stringer grid. This combination will result in product with superior strength for offshore use, while providing higher cruise and top-end speeds, and increased fuel economy.

By utilizing vacuum infusion we can ensure precise resin to glass ratios, and ensure perfect core and laminate bonds. The hull is infused with 100% vinyl ester resin which offer superior cosmetic and structural benefits.

We will continue to update our progress on the 320CC, and of integrating vacuum infusion into the production of our boats.
