1995 Mares 58 Power Cat

Step aboard and the first thing you notice is how the beam carries forward, turning the salon into a true great room instead of a narrow passage. The catamaran hulls push the cabins outboard, so you get real separation and privacy between sleeping spaces rather than stacked berths on top of each other. Wide side decks and solid rail height make line handling and fender work feel secure, even when short-handed. Underway, the high bridgedeck and stepped sponsons mean less pounding and more of that soft, level catamaran run that keeps guests happy on longer passages. The cockpit is large enough to rig for serious fishing one weekend and host sunset cocktails the next, without feeling like you’re compromising either role.

A 58-foot power cat like this shines where waters can throw a mix of chop, tight inlets, and long stretches between fuel docks. The twin slender hulls and raised bridgedeck soften head seas while keeping spray down, so coastal hops and island channels stay comfortable instead of punishing. With impressive fuel capacity and efficient cruising speeds, you can plan ambitious runs without constantly hunting for the next fuel pier. Shallow draft opens up skinny coves and tucked-away anchorages that deeper monohulls pass by. At the dock, the wide stance and twin screws translate into confident maneuvering in tight slips, while the expansive salon and multiple cabins give family, guests, or crew real space to spread out during extended stays aboard.
