The 2026 Shoalwater 23 Cat is a catamaran-style bay boat built for inshore fishing and recreational boating. At 23 feet 8 inches with an 8.67-foot beam, it combines the stability of a twin-hull design with the shallow-draft characteristics Shoalwater is known for. Power comes from a 250-horsepower Yamaha engine paired with a hydraulic jackplate for precise depth control.
The boat features a stainless steel console with integrated livewell, a hybrid hardtop with flush lids, and a tall T-top for sun protection. Angler-focused equipment includes a rear livewell, front and rear storage, bucket seats with slides, and a 61-gallon fuel cell. Trim and handling are managed via Lenco trim tabs and hydraulic tilt steering for responsive control in shallow water.
Standard rigging and construction details include a tall burn bar, Pro Air ventilation, custom aluminum wheels, and an aluminum trailer for transport. The hull is finished in white with seafoam accents. A remote fill and cylinder, livewell pump with screen, livewell overflow pipe, and battery switch round out the mechanical package.
