Zapcat Facts
Zapcats are:
- seriously FAST and can safely reach speeds of up to 60 mph
- very light and can be carried by two people
- built for racing with a tough aluminum transom and composite Kevlar spoiler
- capable of handling rough seas – wave large enough to break over the boat won’t cause the boat to flood and the water runs out the open transom
- a jaw dropping thrilling ride for any extreme sports enthusiast
- stable – they will not tip over to the side when alighting – the catamaran design keeps the boat stable when stationary
Zapcats have:
- a better Power to Weight ratio than a Ferrari Testarossa
- no wake so they won’t annoy others in the marina and are therefore also great for slalom skiing!
- excellent fuel efficiency
- compact – they can fold down to less than two cubic metres
The Zapcat Experience
You will be wearing lifejackets and helmets on this high speed exhilarating adventure, pushing the limits for an experience that you will never forget. Zapcats jump the waves in spectacular style, the design of the zap cat enables it to reach extreme speeds and out-manoeuvre any other craft on the water. Its 50hp outboard engine will fire you across the water with the acceleration of a formula one racing car, feel the adrenalin rush, not as a passenger but as a co-pilot – it is your responsibility to ensure the boat makes the 90 and 180 degree turns at 40+ mph.
The response is instantaneous as you spin through 180 degrees and accelerate hard up the face of an advancing wave. The engine noise becomes a high pitched whine as the propeller leaves the water and you take off, momentarily flying ten feet above the water before bouncing back down with a crashing jolt. A thrill ride that will leave you adrenaline-fuelled and with a giant grin washing over your face.
