The Horizon Cat is a classic boat for the diehard traditional sailor — a real Cape Cod cat with a shallow fin keel for added stability and windward performance.
A high-aspect kick-up rudder is incorporated for convenience and extremely light helm. Quick, nimble, and comfortable, the Horizon Cat has a large cockpit and extensive accommodations.
In addition, the exclusive Mastendr™ mast raising system revolutionizes the trailer-boating experience.
The heritage of the Horizon Cat is the famous Cape Cod shoal-draft cat-rigged work boats that plied Nantucket and Vineyard Sounds during the 1900s, but the Horizon Cat is designed, built and outfitted as a weekender for the cruising couple.
