| PowerCat for Passagemaking I know many powercat design for coastal cruising but I can't find powercat design for offshore and trans-ocean cruising. Does this kind of boat exist? Do you know a good book on powercat design?

| Fountaine-Pajot has an interesting range of powercats, not sure about passagemaking ability but some have pretty impressive range: http://www.fountaine-pajot.com/sommaire1-fr.html We don't mind your English at all, JF; English is a nasty language to learn and you're not doing too badly

| There are any number of cats being designed and built as offshore passagemakers. Take a look at those by malcom tennant as a start... http://www.tennantdesign.co.nz/

| In order to attempt to avoid capsize the cat must be really large . Big boats are expensive! 75+ ft is still small for ocean service. FAST FRED |
