The Lavranos 10.5 power cat

This is a really nice package,we have costed it and can do a ply epoxy kit to order,locally it can also be professionaly built.The boat is good for our local Cape waters and has a top speed of some 22 knots.


10.5 METER PLYWOOD POWERCAT


This Wright & Lavranos 11 powercat design is developed as a "cut file" kitset, so that the hull is CNC cut and delivered to the builder precut & labelled. She was built for a Motueka based client who uses her for a taxi service in the Marlborough Sounds, carrying twenty passengers as well as for charter fishing, with 8 passengers.
The boat has a top speed of 22 knots fully laden, and comfortably cruises at 20, with a pair of Volvo TAMD41P engines (147 KW each @ 3800 RPM), driving 560mm x 4 blade Henley’s Tiger props through a ZF 2.56 reduction gearboxes. She is an outstanding sea boat, soft-riding and with excellent wing deck clearance, and with good spray damping she is very dry.
The very large self draining cockpit provides excellent access to the motors and is equipped with a bait tank, pot hauler, bait table, rod holders, fish box, and lots of storage and seating. The shower and toilet compartment is accessed from the forward end of the cockpit. The saloon and galley area is around the helm station, and there are a pair of double cabins with berths for 6 down below. The saloon settee and table is also convertible to a double.
LENGTH OVERALL 10.500 METERS
BEAM MAXIMUM 4.550 METERS
DRAFT 1.100 METERS


Note the really good stern access for either diving or fishing.
