2015 AmeraCat 31 CC

Step aboard and you’ll notice how the wide catamaran beam gives you room to move, even with a full crew working the cockpit. Gunnels are at a comfortable height, with coaming pads that keep you braced when the seas get lumpy. The forward seating and open bow let you switch from hardcore trolling to sandbar lounging without re-rigging the whole boat. High freeboard and a dry, soft ride inspire confidence when a breeze kicks up. At the helm, the line of sight is excellent standing or seated, and there’s plenty of shade from the T-top. Thoughtful touches like easy-access bilge areas and simple systems layout make routine checks and maintenance less of a chore.

Waters here can turn from flat calm to tight chop in a single tide change, and that’s where the AmeraCat 31 CC shines. The twin-hull design bridges short, confused seas, so you’re not pounding your way to the fishing grounds. Long runs offshore are more comfortable and fuel efficient, while the generous deck space makes it easier to work multiple lines and kite spreads. Shoal-draft passes and nearshore reefs are more approachable thanks to the cat’s stability and shallow running characteristics. When the bite’s close to the beach in the morning and out deep by afternoon, this hull lets you cover ground quickly, safely, and without beating up your crew.
