The DevilCat 4.6m and 5.2m models are the same construction and
appear very similar. Both these models have full floatation with sealed
sponsons, flat floor, twin swivel seats, swim platform and live bait
tank built in, easy to tow and very versatile boats, with more usable
room that a 7m mono hull. Very stable at rest and extremely good in
rough conditions. These two versions are normally powered by 70hp or
90hp outboards, with twin 100 litre fuel tanks. Larger fuel tanks can be
fitted if required. The beam is 2.35m and the draft fully loaded is
300mm, with a freeboard of over 600mm. The overall weight on a tandem
axle trailer is approx 2 tonne.
6.6m DevilCat Boat
Next is the 6.6m DevilCat available as Open Runabout, Sportsman, Open
Hardtop or Fully Enclosed Hardtop. This is probably the most versatile
boat of all with plenty of room, coupled with great performance, good
sleeping facilities and long range fuel capacity. They are all 6.6m
long, with a beam of 2.5m and range in weight from 1400kgs to 1700kgs,
they come standard with 2x 200 litre under deck fuel tanks (larger fuel
tanks can be fitted if required), self draining cockpit, moulded rear
duck board and live bait tank facility. They can be powered with minimum
2x 100hp to a maximum 2x 250hp motors. This size gives you the same
usable area as an 8.5 mono hull, and is by far the most popular of our
range. This model complete comes in at under 3000kgs on the road. There
are some photos of a new one under construction.
7.5m DevilCat Boat
The 7.5m DevilCat is the largest legally tow-able size in our vast
range of boats, like the 6.6m, these come in Open Runabout, Sportsman,
Hardtop and Fully Enclosed Hardtop. These boats are 7.5m long with a
beam of 2.5m weigh from 1550kgs through to 1840kgs. They are very
popular with the professional divers , Abalone Divers, Cray Fishermen,
as well as many Government Agencies, including Tasmanian Police force.
The extra payload is vital for these uses as well as being able to
utilise the extra length for a longer fore deck and therefore a much
bigger cabin and sleeping quarters.
