2022 World Cat 280 DC-X

Step aboard and you’ll notice how the wide catamaran beam really opens up the cockpit and bow for entertaining. Deep, secure seating with high backrests makes it comfortable to run offshore or lounge at the sandbar, and the walkthrough windshield keeps the breeze manageable when the chop picks up. The hardtop offers generous shade and secure handholds, and there’s thoughtful storage tucked under nearly every cushion. Owners love the stable, level ride at rest—perfect for casting a line or serving lunch without drinks sliding around. Add in the convenient swim platform and ladder between the engines, and it’s just as easy to slip in for a swim as it is to step back aboard with a plate from the grill.

This 28-foot power cat shines in local waters where conditions can shift from calm bays to lumpy open stretches in a single outing. The twin-hull design softens the short, confused chop that’s common on windier afternoons, keeping guests drier and more comfortable. Shallow draft makes it easy to tuck into sandbars and backwater hideaways, while still having the confidence to run offshore when the forecast cooperates. The dual-console layout suits a full day on the water, from early fishing runs to sunset cruises, with plenty of protected seating and storage for beach gear, dive bags, and water toys. It’s a versatile match for boaters who want one hull to handle many different local adventures.
