World Cat 280 CC-X

“Flight Risk,” stands out as an exceptionally clean, lift-kept power catamaran that's been meticulously maintained. With only approximately 230 hours on the engines, it's currently completing its 300-hour/3-year service ensuring the next owner steps into a truly turn-key vessel ready for the upcoming season.
This model is a premium center console catamaran from World Cat, renowned for its catamaran hull design that delivers a remarkably smooth, stable ride—even in choppy offshore conditions—while offering superior performance compared to similar-sized monohulls. The twin outboard setup (typically Yamaha F200s or similar, totaling around 400 HP) provides quick planing, efficient cruising at about 29 mph (with excellent fuel economy around 2.0 mpg), and top speeds in the mid-40s mph range. The catamaran's wide 9'2" beam extends through the bow, creating significantly more usable space (up to 35% more than comparable monohulls), generous seating for up to 11 passengers, and a spacious, versatile layout ideal for multiple activities.

Key highlights include:
Versatile usage — Perfectly equipped for serious offshore performance, including long runs for fishing or exploration, yet equally comfortable for inshore angling, family cruising, sandbar days, snorkeling, or relaxed entertaining. The design excels in stability, dryness, and handling rough water with ease.
Low hours and service history — At just ~230 hours, this boat remains lightly used for its age, and the ongoing service adds extra confidence and reliability right out of the gate.
Warranty coverage — The Mercury factory warranty extends through June 2026, with an optional 2-year Mercury Platinum extension available for additional protection—ideal for peace of mind during extended offshore adventures.
Advanced electronics and safety — Factory-equipped with radar and FLIR thermal imaging, enhancing situational awareness and safety during low-visibility conditions like early morning offshore departures or late-night returns.
Stunning aesthetics — The ceramic-coated gray hull with sleek black accents delivers a sharp, modern, head-turning profile. It looks aggressive and premium both at the dock and while underway, setting it apart from more conventional boats.
This “Flight Risk” combines World Cat's signature catamaran advantages—smooth ride, efficiency, spaciousness, and durability—with thoughtful upgrades, low usage, and strong remaining warranty coverage, making it a standout choice for discerning buyers seeking a high-performance, multi-purpose offshore-capable center console that's ready for immediate enjoyment.
