2800 Series
Award-winning design, legendary performance, and unbelievable fuel economy.Proven Performer. Timeless Design.
Winner of the Queensland Transport Designer of the Year Award (1991), the 7.2 metre Kevlacat remains one of the most respected vessels in its class.
Renowned for its proven performance and reliability, this model continues to impress both professional and recreational operators alike.
No other vessel in its size range combines such exceptional fuel efficiency, strength, and offshore capability.
The Kevlacat 2800 Series stands as a benchmark in Australian boating — a balance of performance, efficiency, and versatility that continues to inspire confidence decades after its introduction.
Exceptional Efficiency
With twin 170 HP Yanmar engines, the 7.2 delivers incredible fuel economy — consuming just 11.5 litres per hour (combined).
This kind of efficiency is unheard of in a vessel of this class and makes the 2800 Series a favourite among commercial and serious game fishermen.
“Are you sure you’ve done your figures correctly?”
It’s the question we hear most often — until they see it for themselves.
For professional operators, this efficiency translates to more time on the water, fewer refuelling stops, and dramatically reduced running costs.
Tournament Proven
The 7.2 metre Kevlacat has proven itself time and again in the toughest conditions — including multiple wins in major Australian game fishing tournaments.
In fact, Reel Capture took out Mooloolaba’s Billfish Bash aboard a 7.2 Kevlacat — the vessel chosen by the Australian Champion himself.
No other power catamaran in its class comes close in terms of seaworthiness, stability, and ride comfort.
From professional sport fishing to commercial charter work, the Kevlacat 2800 remains the gold standard.
