Smart Cat S280 Sea Trial — Twin Yamaha 50HP High Thrust Engines & Genoa Sail Test

We took the Smart Cat S280 out on the water with the owner for a full performance test, putting both the engines and the sails through their paces. Under power, the S280 ran beautifully with twin Yamaha 50HP High Thrust outboards, smooth, responsive, and plenty of confidence-inspiring thrust for maneuvering and cruising. Under sail, the performance was equally impressive. This boat is rigged with a Genoa that's 50% larger than the standard jib, and the difference shows noticeably better drive and speed, especially in lighter air. If you're considering the Smart Cat S280 or just love a capable cruising catamaran, this one's worth a watch. At Smart Catamarans, we don't just sell boats, we deliver an experience. 📍 Follow the journey: 🌐 https://smartcatamarans.com 📸 Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/smartcatamarans/ 📘 Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/smartcatamarans/ 📞 Interested in a Smart Cat S280?
