2026 World Cat 280 DUAL CONSOLE

The 2026 World Cat 280 Dual Console is a 27-foot fiberglass dual console powered by a single Mercury 450 hp outboard with DTS controls and Vessel View display. The boat cruises at typical speeds around 30 mph and reaches over 45 mph at wide-open throttle. Key navigation and safety equipment includes a Garmin GPSMAP chartplotter with sonar, ICOM VHF radio, and an integrated windlass system with 300 feet of line and a stainless steel anchor.

The bow accommodates six passengers on deluxe seating with folding armrests, backed by substantial storage options including an insulated 180-quart compartment with overboard drain and a large starboard locker. Six rod holders are distributed across the bow and gunwales to support fishing tackle. The cockpit features a versatile double-wide seat that converts between forward and rear-facing positions and provides 360-degree bolsters ideal for anglers. Additional rod holders mount to the hardtop frame, and a retractable ski pylon is installed on the transom.

Onboard amenities include a spacious head with freshwater system, Corian counter, and 9-gallon holding tank. A fiberglass-lined console houses this compartment and offers an unobstructed helm view through a frameless windshield. Entertainment comes via a marine stereo with JL Audio speakers and Bluetooth connectivity. The cockpit is outfitted with a walk-through transom door, commercial-grade dive ladder, and fold-down seating for two at the stern. Storage throughout includes under-counter compartments, drink holders, and 6-quart personal lockers under the gunwales. A 20-quart cooler and optional 20-gallon insulated livewell complete the cruising setup. Fuel capacity is 220 gallons across two tanks, with 16.5-gallon fresh water and 9-gallon wastewater systems.
