Shipping is quite tricky and costly for catamaran boats because of the larger volume and added cost of shipping. However, we developed new way to assemble the boat so we could load the boat into two units of 40ft HQ container. We designed the boat as 28ft long in LOA so the boat can be loaded into container easily and kept the minimum size for user’s sailing convenience. In terms of LOA, Smart Cat S280 is 7ft shorter than other competing models which gives you excellent control and 17.4ft of beam will provide you very roomy cockpit.

Smart Cat S280 can be shipped anywhere, at a lower cost of shipping than finished product transportation.

A flat deck design and minimized equipment makes it easy for users to actively move around with extra space to put items. The forward deck features a 6 foot trampoline that can be used for adjusting the trim or lounging coupled with an wide step structure that can be used as comfortable seats and lounge. And there will be a targa made of pipes and FRP seats and cushions for sitting. The hard top can also be used to mount solar panels.

Smart Cat S280

You frequently see sailors on social media criticizing all the new boats they consider unsuitable for open seas in winds of over 50 knots... For us at Multihulls World, this kind of criticism makes no more sense than pointing out that an RV isn’t the thing for the twists and turns of a snow-covered mountain road...

The success of pontoon boats, despite not being the most seaworthy of craft, but great at anchor, shows that many boaters don’t necessarily want to set off on a round-the-world trip, and prefer the comfort of a platform on the water over its performance. With this in mind, we’d like to present the Smart Cat S280, a catamaran we saw alongside the HopYacht 30 at the Miami International Boat Show. This compact unit is based on the open cockpit/nacelle principle popularized on Edel Cat, Corneel 26 and Kat 28 from the 1980s - but also on the small Aventura from the 2000s. The galley is located in the starboard passageway. There are 3 berths and one bathroom, or 2 berths and 2 bathrooms. As the disclaimer preceding this presentation suggests, the S280 has no pretensions to performance under sail: it is relatively heavy, moderately canvassed and its hulls are reasonably beamy at the waterline. But this little catamaran has the advantage of being dismountable to fit into two 40-foot shipping containers. The S280 can be fitted with a variety of engines (inboard, outboard or electric), and can even do without a rig. Builder: S Com Tech - South Korea Length: 28’ (8.50 m) Beam: 17’5” (5.29 m) Draft: 2’10” (0.89 m) Displacement: 10,000 lbs (4.5 t) Mainsail: 417 sq ft (38.8 m²) Genoa: 344 sq ft (32.2 m²) Engines: 2 x 10 or 2 x 25 HP outboards or 2 x 21 HP inboards Fuel: 27 US gal (102 l) Water: 36 US gal (135 l)

Testimonials

John Dial The Smart Cat was such a pleasant surprise!  When I first heard of the boat, I was skeptical. When I saw the boat, I LOVED it!  I am an experienced boater with over 30 years hands-on with all brands of boats both sail and power.  I went on the boat alone with no salespeople and… USCG Master Captain / United Yacht Sales

Ben Kaminsky One of the most interesting boat exhibiting at 2020 Miami Boat Show. The boat handled very well. The ride was pretty comfy due to the high length/beam ratio. I was pretty impressed with how it handled and performance was good for this kind of catamaran range. Catamaran Review

Learning the Lines I think it’s a really cool boat. I think this boat would be good for coastal cruising, week-ending and fun all-around boat. For 28 foot boat, this boat has a ton of accommodation. There is a lot of living space even though it’s just a 28 foot boat. This boat is very beamy which is… Youtuber
