US cat builder appoints Puerto Rican dealer

World Cat, a US builder of outboard-powered centre and dual console catamarans, has added Puerto Rico-based Wally Castro Marine to its current dealer roster.

“We are extremely excited about our partnership with Wally Castro Marine, and the ability to grow our brand further internationally,” says World Cat CEO Andrew Brown.

“The catamaran market is not only growing here in the States, but it’s also growing exponentially in the international market,” he adds. “Our goal has been to align ourselves with quality dealer partners in previously untapped markets to create opportunities for both companies, and Wally Castro Marine is the ideal fit in this space.”

Wally Castro Marine is a full-service boatyard in Fajardo, Puerto Rico. The company is one of the largest dealerships in the Caribbean.

“We’re excited about representing the World Cat brand here at our dealership located in Puerto Rico,” says company owner Wally Castro. “They are the strongest manufacturer in the growing catamaran segment with model offerings and quality ideal for our customer base.”

World Cat makes outboard-powered center and dual console catamarans from 23ft-40ft, including several Glacier Bay Edition models. The company is headquartered in Tarboro, North Carolina.
