20 metre Superfast Patrol Boat

The Bobkat 2013 has been developed as a specialised SUPERFAST catamaran. This patented twin stepped tunnel design is the latest state of the art member in the 40 ton Bobkat range.
A combination of innovative catamaran design and advanced Hydro Supportive Foil technology - two South African inventions not available anywhere else - makes this craft a leader in its field, capable of exceptional stability, sea keeping and manoeuvering at exceptionally high speeds and under the most demanding conditions.
Allday cruising at 45 knots gives a range of 350nm with unbelievable economy on only 5 000l fuel tank capacity. V16 MTU/DDC 4 000 Dieselpower is commercially rated at 2 720 kW @ 2 100 rpm for a longlife of 9 000 hours between overhauls.
