WAVE PIERCING POWER CATAMARANS

The Gold Coast Wave Piercer is best envisioned as a cost effective synthesis of displacement catamarans and SWATHs. The Gold Coast Wave Piercer series utilizes long elliptical wave piercing displacement hull forms, high under wing clearances and large hull separations to minimize the surface contouring habit (motion) experienced in conventional displacement or planing vessels.  The result is a remarkably smooth ride with greatly reduced pitch, roll, heave and pounding enhancing the documented fuel efficiency of displacement cats. Eight successful vessels are in daily service producing the database for a wide variety of sizes and uses. Contact us to experience a ride on this unique new craft and to discuss your application.
