\"\"TOMCAT 9.7 \u2022 <\/strong>The new TomCat 9.7, the big sister to the original 6.2, is an entry-level performance cruising cat from Canada that combines fine sailing characteristics with an innovative interior plan. From the outset the builders envisioned a cruising cat that would be light, fast and fun to sail. But it also had to have reasonable living accommodations and the ability to make longer coastal or offshore passages.<\/p>\n

The hull design shows hull TomCat 9.7 shapes that are fine forward but given enough volume to prevent too much pitching. The builders have integrated a unique single daggerboard system that lowers into the water through the bridgedeck and provides lift on both tacks.<\/p>\n

The Seld\u00e9n rig comes standard with a large fullybattened main and a small working jib. As an option you can upgrade to a larger genoa with adjustable track and a spinnaker package that includes a snuffer.<\/p>\n

The 9.7 uses two 9.9 outboards, one in each hull, to power the boat. This is a simple system that will make the engines easy to maintain. The accommodations plan offers a large owner’s double berth forward and running athwartships; this can be made private with curtains at either end and darkened with shades over the forward windows.<\/p>\n

Two guest cabins are tucked into the aft end of each hull. The head is in the port hull while the in-line galley runs fore and aft in the starboard hull.<\/p>\n

The TomCat is built on a semi-custom basis so you can work with the builders to come up with the boat you want. An affordable way to get started in catamaran cruising, the new 9.7 offers a lot in a small package and has all the capability you will need for coastal cruising and voyages farther afield.
