Invincible 37 Cat Boat Review

• By Jim Hendricks
• Updated: April 2, 2019

In some eyes, Invincible Boats’ 37 Cat might have a tough act to follow. Its debut came on the heels of the much-anticipated rollout of Invincible’s first-ever multihull model, the 40 Cat, which I tested for the September/October 2018 issue of Sport Fishing .

But now, as the Invincible crew welcomed me aboard the 37 Cat at Crandon Park Marina on Florida’s Key Biscayne for a summer morning of offshore fishing, one of my first questions was, “Why would a customer choose the 37 instead of the 40?”

“Someone might want a slightly shorter length to fit in a slip or to dock along a canal in back of a home,” said Bill Cordes, Invincible’s director of sales and marketing. “The smaller size also helps when maneuvering in small, crowded marinas.”

Bait Mission We would soon test that theory — the first order of business was to squeeze into a narrow nearby channel to procure live pilchards from a local bait vendor. Equipped with SeaStar Solutions Optimus steering, controlling quad 350 Verado outboards, the 37 handled nicely in the tight confines. We easily sidled up to the stern of the bait boat in a spot where the 40-footer might not have fit. Cordes was right.

Invincible’s Jonathan Lipworth and I helped fend off as Cordes and Zack Howell, also an Invincible staff member, loaded bait. The 26-inch-high gunwales in the aft cockpit made it fairly easy to net the silvery baits from the floating pens. Between the 70-­gallon transom livewell and the 72-gallon well below the aft deck, the 37 hosted more than 300 live pilchards, and we were ready for action.

As we headed out, Lipworth explained that the 37 has the same 12-foot beam as the 40, but that the transom design is different. The transom interior is flat, despite the integration of the center livewell, allowing you to more easily work a fish around the outboard engines.

Bluewater Bound With 260 gallons of fuel, pressurized livewells brimming and fish lockers stuffed with ice, the 37 Cat rocketed past Stiltsville and Cape Florida at 52 mph, turning 4,500 rpm, where the four engines burned 55 gallons of fuel per hour, resulting in 0.94 mpg.

A pair of Garmin GPSMap 8617 multi­function displays — one set on sonar, the other on the chart plotter — helped guide the way. The powder-coated aluminum uprights for the hardtop meld gracefully with the center console and serve to frame the thick acrylic windshield and side windows that protect the helm.

This 37 sported a leaning-post-style helm seat with tackle stowage underneath and room for three people, but you can order three-across bucket helm seats with fold-down armrests and flip‑up bolsters.

We were headed to 200 feet of water to kite-fish for mahi and sailfish, and as we passed the shallower patch reefs, waves out of the south began to grow. This is where the design of the Invincible multihull really shines.

Smooth and Natural The Morelli & Melvin-engineered running surface features a semi-­asymmetrical cross-sectional design for each sponson. This shape allows the boat to lean inward while cornering. High-speed turns felt natural and comfortable, akin to a V-hull, versus turning flat or leaning outward.

The hull rode very smoothly through seas, with little bow-to-stern rocking motion and hardly any deceleration when meeting the waves, as you might experience with a V-hull. To help soften the water that rushes between the hulls, there’s a pod in between to diffuse the pressure.

We reached our fishing ­destination near Fowey Light, and deployed a sea anchor on the port side, securing its line to one of the heavy-duty pull-up cleats. We let the kite line out on the starboard side.

The hull laid in the trough, yet proved very stable, owing to its wide stance and twin hulls. The crew used the rigging station with its foldout shelf abaft the helm seating to rig tackle and bridle baits. Invincible has cleverly installed racks for spools of leader line inside the tackle-stowage ­compartment. A slide-out 105-quart cooler resides below the rigging station.

Space Ship While we waited for a bite, I explored the rest of the boat. The 37 Cat abounds with deck space, offering plenty of room for the crew to fish in the aft cockpit and move fore and aft between the console and gunwales. In addition, like all power cats, this boat carries its wide beam all the way to the bow, and this affords plenty of space forward, including room for a wide coffin box with five rod holders lining each side and a cushion on top. Dividers inside the box let you ­separate different types of cold goods.

A seat for two on the forward ­console gives crewmembers a place to take a load off. A companionway on the port side of the console offers access to the interior, where I stowed my camera gear.

Commotion in the aft cockpit drew my attention from the boat tour. A sailfish had attacked the bridled pilchard on the long kite line, and Cordes was up first. He wound the reel quickly to tighten the line, free it from the release clip and then secure the circle hook in the corner of the sail’s mouth.

As Cordes fought the fish, I noted the thick coaming pads that encircle the interior of the 37, cushioning his legs no matter where he followed the fish. The boat’s stability made it safe and comfortable to battle the fish from the bow as well as the stern. This sail was tough, staging a longer fight on the light tackle than we all expected and adding a few aerial flourishes to the mix. But eventually, Cordes coaxed the beautiful fish boatside, where Howell leadered it and removed the hook for a successful release.

Mutton, Honey We set the kite lines back out, but this time decided to fish an additional pilchard on a bottom rig as we drifted into shallower water. That turned out to be a smart decision. About 15 minutes into our drift, the rod bent double. Howell picked it up and fought the fish, which turned out to be a brightly ­colored ­mutton snapper.

On that successful note, our time ­offshore had come to an end. We headed in to the smooth waters of Biscayne Bay to gather performance data on the 37 Cat. Turning Mercury Revolution4 23-inch-pitch, four-blade stainless-steel propellers, the quad Merc 350 Verados powered the Invincible to plane in 4 ­seconds and 30 mph in 7 seconds from dead idle. We achieved a remarkable top speed of 74.1 mph at 6,500 rpm, burning 141 gallons per hour for 0.52 mpg.

Since this test, Invincible has changed the engine height and installed Rev4 24-inch-pitch pro-finished props. This helped the 37 Cat record a top speed of 77 mph at 6,350 rpm in subsequent tests, where the engines burned 122 gph for 0.63 mpg, ­according to Invincible.

Our best fuel efficiency occurred at 3,500 rpm and 37 mph, where the engines consumed 35.1 gph for 1.05 mpg. However, fuel efficiency at 4,000 rpm and 44 mph was nearly identical. During Invincible’s testing, the 37 Cat achieved it highest efficiency at 4,000 rpm and 45 mph, where the Mercs burned 42 gph for 1.07 mph. At any of these speeds, expect a cruising range in excess of 500 miles based on the 550-gallon fuel capacity.

Ultimately, the 37 Cat gives up little to its larger sister ship. The 37’s seakeeping ability is excellent. Yes, it’s a tad shorter than its sibling, but in some cases, that can be an advantage, especially when you need to squeeze into a narrow channel to load the livewells with bait.

Invincible 37 Cat

A freestanding coffin box style lounge pad stands apart from the console for relaxation under the sun.

The interior space under the lounge offers compartmentalized storage inside and rod holders around the outside edges. (Note the additional wide forward console seating.)

A thick ring bolster forward allows comfortable access to your ground tackle beneath three forward hatches.

This exceptionally roomy console interior will easily handle your dry storage needs for an overnight trip with room to spare for an electric head.

The Invincible helm layout is clean and functional with a crystal-clear view of the oncoming scenery.

Aft facing seating in the cockpit provides a view of the bait spread and a large, insulated compartment below.

Cockpit working space is in abundance on this 12-foot-wide platform and a pair of aviation style jump seats deploy easily when the need arises.

A pair of compartments in opposite corners of the cockpit deck provide access to your bilge accessories and hardware.

A 70-gallon live well in the deck joins this large transom height well to handle tournament quantities of live bait for the most serious anglers.

Matching high volume insulated fish holds to port and starboard flank the tackle center to ice even the largest catches.

This triple wide bench style helm opens to reveal a storage compartment below.

Dropping the cockpit seat back forward creates a rigging table and access to your tackle storage center.

A molded ledge for incidental item storage and hose caddy makes smart use of otherwise wasted space beneath the gunwales.

Fishability Test: Invincible 37 Catamaran

• By Alex Suescun
• Updated: February 10, 2019

The new 37 shares key traits with the 40-foot model that made a big splash in 2017, such as ­superb handling, seakeeping and fuel efficiency.

The layout is also similar. For ­starters, the deck is level, which makes following a hooked fish around the boat easier and safer. However, the transom, which houses an oval 70-gallon livewell with clear lid and high-speed pickup, is flat to accommodate two corner jump seats that fold away to fish in a roomier, ­uncluttered cockpit.

Twin in-floor hatches in front of said jump seats provide access to the bilge, while a similarly sized hatch to starboard opens to a second 70-gallon livewell. For gear storage or to ice down a substantial catch, two forward in-floor insulated boxes ­— long enough (90 by 36 inches) for big pelagics augment the two smaller boxes (57 by 43 inches) amidships. Ahead of the console, our test boat sported the optional coffin box with modular dividers, providing extra stowage for anything from tackle bags to safety gear, plus a cushion that turns the lid into a sizable sun pad.

Four cubbyholes in the gunwales serve to stash items you don’t mind getting wet. At the bow, a pair of symmetrical compartments keep life vests or dock lines handy, and bookend the dedicated anchor locker with space for lots of rode and a cradle for the anchor. Close all three hatches and the elevated platform can be used to stand and cast-net bait.

Ergonomically designed, the console has a forward seat for two with backrest and a cooler underneath, plus room inside for a port-a-potty. The helm is neatly laid out to keep the tilt steering, waterproof switches and electronics within easy reach, with mounting space for dual 17-inch multifunction displays, a pair of digital gauges, stereo, VHF radio, trim-tab switches and joystick control. For convenience, there’s a shelf for cellphones and valuables, dual charging ports, and cup holders to port and starboard. An integrated footrest with storage lets the skipper and crew lean back at the helm, while a bolster below the switch panel safeguards their knees in a chop.

An angled leaning-post-style seating module accommodates three at the helm, with a high, contoured backrest for maximum comfort, storage beneath the seat, hatches with tackle trays on both sides, storage drawers in the back, and a wide hatch that opens to leader and line-spool holders, and doubles as a rigging table, plus a cooler on a pull-out slide underneath.

The hardtop, designed as an integral part of the console, incorporates a three-sided, full-height windshield to ward off rain or spray. It’s solid enough to support a second helm station, and has the dimensions to accommodate a radar dome, spotlight and an infrared-imaging camera, in addition to outriggers.

There’s a portside door with retractable ladder for loading and boarding, and fresh- and raw-water washdowns that remain neatly coiled out of the way until needed. Rod storage on the Invincible is astounding. Four flush-mount holders come standard, but horizontal racks for three outfits on both gunwales are a popular option. Our test boat came rigged to ­carry 49 rods more, with six vertical rod tubes on the hardtop frame, 12 flush-mount holders on the covering boards, five on the helm-seat backrest, seven more on each side of the console, six on the transom, and 12 on the coffin box.

Invincible’s ­patent-pending 37 Catamaran hull is far from a copycat. Its ­hybrid semi-asymmetric design enables the boat to achieve high speeds while retaining stellar maneuverability, competently handling both quartering and following seas.

We saw firsthand what the epoxy-infused, dual-step hull does in open ­water off Miami, where we took the boat out for a ride. The turning radius on the 12-foot-wide cat proved better than ­expected; so did its responsiveness, and the counterintuitive outward lean typical of cat hulls was surprisingly absent.

Powered by quad Mercury 350 Verados, the boat posted a remarkable hole shot, yet its attitude remained flat throughout the takeoff, transitioning smoothly — without any squatting — into spirited acceleration to wide-open throttle, going from zero to 30 mph in 8.57 seconds, and reaching a top speed of 72.7 mph. Just as significant, the cat cruised handily at 43.5 mph, turning 4,000 rpm and burning only 36.6 gph, an efficient fuel consumption that yields a range of over 650 miles on a full tank.

Invincible’s new catamaran gets two thumbs up. The 37-footer is a complete offshore fishing ­machine.
