Twenty five knots at cruise, forty at the top, and remarkably settled getting there.
Twin Mercury Verado 300 outboards come as standard, with twin Yamaha F300 or twin Mercury Verado 350 available for owners who want more top end. What sets her apart is not raw power but how she carries it: Seakeeper’s Ride system, fitted as standard, uses gyroscopic control to manage pitch, roll and yaw at speed, flattening the ride through chop that would unsettle a conventional center console. A 0.6 metre draught keeps shallow water within reach, and 700 litres of fuel give her a 250 nautical mile range, enough for a genuine day out and the return leg without a second thought.
Her sheer line runs backwards from almost every other boat on the water.
A high, confident bow tapers down toward the stern, a reversed profile that gives her a planted, purposeful stance at rest and at speed. The stern finishes in a structural bracket built to carry the outboards cleanly, with an integrated swim platform below. Above the midship helm sits an aerodynamic composite hardtop, its wing like contours shaped to shelter the crew without disturbing airflow or blocking sightlines, and built in to the windshield rather than bolted on top of it. Teak accents run through the deck, and a magnetic bow sunpad with contoured, stitched cushioning turns the foredeck into genuine lounging space rather than an afterthought.
Walking her deck underway is the point, not an afterthought.
The midship helm position is deliberate: it frees the rest of the boat for movement between bow and stern even while she is running, something a conventional console at the back of the boat does not allow. The aft cockpit folds away into open deck space when guests want room to move, with storage hidden beneath rather than left on show. Wireless charging pads and USB and USB-C ports are built into the deck furniture, a small detail that matters on a boat meant for full days away from a marina. She is rated for up to 12 day guests, putting her sociable capacity ahead of her sister models in the Catalina range.
A single cabin below deck turns a day boat into an overnighter when the moment calls for it.
Accommodation is modest by design, sleeping two and supported by one crew position, enough for an owner who wants the option of staying out without building a yacht around that need. The electrical system below deck is where the real engineering shows: a CZone digital distribution system replaces conventional switches and fuses with a controllable, fully monitored network, run from lithium iron phosphate batteries chosen for their safety, longevity and low weight. Together they keep systems such as refrigeration and lighting running quietly at anchor, long after the engines have stopped.
Flagship of the Catalina range, and priced to match the role.
Built in house by Chris Craft’s own design and engineering teams, she measures 9.5 metres in length on a 3.1 metre beam, with a draught of 0.6 metres and a displacement of around 5,000 kilograms. Twin Mercury Verado 300 outboards are standard, with twin Yamaha F300 or twin Mercury Verado 350 available as options. A new price of 300,000 euros places her just above her smaller sister model, reflecting the extra size, the standard Seakeeper Ride stabilisation and the fully digital electrical architecture she carries. For an owner moving up from a smaller center console without yet wanting a flybridge motor yacht, she is a considered next step.
