World Cat Debuts New 400DC-X Island

World Cat launched its new dual-console 400DC-X Island catamaran at the 2024 Fort Lauderdale International Boat Show. The successor to the 400DC-X, the 400DC-X Island delivers big water capability paired with ultimate comfort package options for overnighting or relaxing on the water. 

Over 39 feet in length, the new catamaran offers 200 square feet of deck space, with a portside L-lounge, two bow tables, an aft deck with swim and dive platforms, rails and WC dive ladder. The entertainment center includes a refrigerator drawer, aft-facing seats with storage and air conditioning. Below deck, a spacious berth includes extra storage, a tinted overhead skylight, a convertible couch/daybed and comes standard with 16,000 BTY cockpit/below deck air conditioning. A freshwater head includes a hot water heater, sink, vanity and walk-in shower.

“When re-designing this unique model, we wanted to lean into what our current 400DC-X owners loved about their boat, and offer even more practical use amenities that allow the entire family to enjoy each adventure on the open water,” says World Cat Vice President of Sales and Marketing Chad Armstrong. “While this model still offers the smooth ride, expansive deck space, stability, and fuel efficiency World Cat Catamarans are known for, it also heavily focuses on the durability and comfort that so many consumers require for long hours on the water through the harshest of conditions. This new iteration of the 400DC-X offers so many possibilities, from cruising with your family, fishing with your crew, or spending a night on the water, this model can do it all.” 

The new 400DC-X Island boasts a max horsepower of 1200 HP and features twin Garmin GPSMAP 8616 screens, Garmin B175M transducer, remote Mic VHF radio and antenna. Optional are port or starboard insulated fish boxes; bait prep with freshwater sink and a 30 gallon livewell; a summer kitchen with a sink, electric grill, and fridge; integrated electric Sureshade; an overnight package that upgrades the standard lithium ship’s power to a Fisher-Panda 8kW generator; L-lounge filler and pneumatic table; molded in transom seats; and more.

The 400DC-X Island can be powered by Twin Yamaha V-8 450 XTOs, Twin Mercury V-10 Verado 400s, or Twin Mercury V-12 Verado 600s.
