2003 World Cat 270 EC - WORLD CAT FOR SALE

A superb platform for angling adventures and carefree family weekends, this World Cat 270 Express Cabin shows meticulous care, with the 100‑hour service completed less than 20 hours ago. Outfitted with a Garmin electronics suite and a new Fusion stereo, it’s genuinely turn‑key—fuel up and you can be chasing fish by the weekend in true Sportfishing and Express Cruiser style.

Purpose‑built to run when many monohulls stay tied up, this trailerable Power Catamaran rides on semi‑displacement twin hulls that smooth out sloppy seas. The broad, well‑organized cockpit is the star: a cavernous 300‑quart insulated fish box, a 27‑gallon lighted livewell, gunwale rod holders, fresh and raw‑water washdowns, cushioned coamings, and removable tackle storage keep every outing efficient. Recessed toe rails add confidence when working a fish, while twin ladder‑back helm seats sit atop aft‑facing jump seats with integrated coolers to keep crew comfortable and provisions chilled. Below, the cabin is inviting and practical, with a queen‑size berth, an electric head, a compact galley cabinet with sink, and smart storage for personal gear and rod lockers—ideal for a Weekend Cruiser or Offshore Fishing Boat.

Topside, a sturdy hardtop with rocket launchers and a radio box keeps gear organized, and the anchor windlass, folding transom bench, tilt steering, dual opening cabin ports, cockpit lighting, dive ladder, and bow pulpit speak to thoughtful design. A walk‑through transom leads to the center swim platform with boarding ladder for effortless water access. Fit and finish are first‑class for the category, and twin Yamaha 225s push this bluewater‑capable Sportfisher to about 40 knots, delivering range, speed, and confidence in a refined Family Cruiser package.

Celebrated as an ultimate family sport‑fishing machine, the 270EC elevates comfort and style without compromising fishability. It offers even more interior volume than the 270SC, providing a generous six feet of headroom, a plush queen berth, a porcelain electric pump‑out head, and abundant stowage for tackle, rods, and reels. Built to withstand the demands of the open ocean, it blends luxury with utility, making it a standout among deep‑water Express Cabin and Offshore Catamaran yachts.

Dimensions and capacities reinforce its versatile pedigree: 28'0" length overall on a 26'6" hull, an easily trailerable 8'6" beam, 12" draft, and an approximate dry weight of 6,800 lb, with 8'6" bridge clearance. Fuel capacity is 200 gallons and freshwater is 32 gallons, with up to 500 max horsepower available. Hull type: semi‑displacement catamaran—poised for coastal cruising, serious sportfishing, and elegant weekends away.
