6m SERIES     2.4m BEAM   Length: 6.2m, 6.9m

The original Cheetah catamaran was designed back in 1989 for beaching daily on a surf beach. Now, after 25 years of working from all around the U.K coast, the 6m series is recognised as one of the most successful work catamaran in the U.K. Cheetah Catamarans maintain a level trim at high cruising speeds in poor conditions. The advantage of this is a stable working platform and a more comfortable ride in rough seas. The 6m series available at a choice of lengths from 6.2m and is custom built to suit any inshore role.

Cheetah 7.9 or Kingfisher Powercat 800

• Add to quote

Hi thinking of upgrading to one of the above and just wondered if anyone had some performance and fuel usage say with a couple of 150 -175 Suzuki engines. Also any other cats I should be looking at ? The Kingfisher is an alloy built cat and looks quite smart and cost a bit less than the cheetah. Would be used for Fishing and pleasure use Look forward to your comments  

Personally I'd be going for the Cheetah, much easier to change things around on the structure and much easier to keep looking good! Something else to consider is that Ali boats will feel cold most of the time The added bonus is that should anything need sorting out they are based in the UK  

I would not have an aluminium boat if I was keeping it afloat,would worry about the corrosion,annode situation. In my marina I know of one aluminium boat amongst hundreds which must tell a story. I know the owner of that one boat and it is a pig to handle,blowing around in the lightest breeze.  

There is a cheetah in Bradwell , (I think it is) bright yellow called vodcat, it looks like an absolute weapon of a boat, totally fishing orientated. It is a big boat for the size of it if that makes sense. I'm not sure though at what size the double mooring rate kicks in for twin hull boats?

I have this 8.5m Cheetah. Fitted new 200hp Suzukis in the spring. Does less than 1 lpm per engine cruising at 22-23 kts. I previously had a 7.9m Cheetah which used about the same fuel at lower speeds as it had 90hp Hondas. Can't fault the sea keeping qualities of the Cheetahs.

Cheetah cat...... dream boat..... totally awesome Sea keeping, economic to run... Would love to get my hands on one but they are hard to find one secondhand (which tells you a lot about their abilities!)  

Yes have been looking for a secondhand one as it’s a 12 month waiting list for a new one. Anyone out their with a cat for sale ?..

how about this https://www.findafishingboat.com/cheetah-marine/ad-88470 used to belong to a member on here and i did lots of work on it making lots of grp bits in the wheelhouse. could do with bigger engines though.  

Hi Garry Did speak to the guy this morning and he’s reduced the price. As you say the engines are a bit on the small side. Did pass the details to a mate of mine and he may well buy it. The only strange thing is that he saying it’s only done 100 hours...on those orignel engines.  

Its just like I made reference to on another thread. Modern outboards can just be plugged in to know how many hours they have yet even on a 50k boat it's hearsay and no print out! Surely if it were low hours or even had a recent service, there would be a nice print out! Seems to me if it's low hours and regularly serviced then there is evidence and if not its an estimated figure. I just found this very frustrating when trying to source a new to me outboard.  

I have a 7.9 with twin 250 Hondas on. Can not smile wide enough when I am out on it. Not quite as efficient as Paul's but I hope to have a few extra knots at the top end : ) Any questions just ask and I will try and answer  

Wow! That's a lot of power. Reading the transom plate on that advert it implies max weight of people luggage and outboards is 1140kg which is pretty low. I think a Honda 250 is 290kg which only leaves 560kg for luggage and people. Also is the max power for both engines as it uses the same icon for both max power and max weight but I would assume the power one is per engine and the weight one is total amount? Just an observation, its not because I am jealous of your 500 horses!!! It could be rather costly in the event of an accident though.  

The boat was fitted out away from cheetah by the fella I bought it off. He added some big stainless transom brackets to add more support for the 250's. Sean at cheetah would not put a CE plate on as he thought they were a bit big and was worried about cornering hard at speed! Just got to handle it with care when the hammer is down. I have phoned Cheetah a few times for advice and they are spot on over the phone so it might be worth giving them a bell about loading weight.  

If it doesn't have a CE plate how have you insured it? Or has that now been rectified?  

Sorry to worry you but I'd be quite concerned if the guy at cheetah won't even back it. The 200 kw translates to 270hp. Is that per hull or total? I assume total in which case you are nearly double. If you could get a surveyor to say it's ok then they might be ok with that but I doubt you'll find anyone to put their name to it. The only people I think that would insure it is a specialist ski/power boat company. We have national speed skiing here and there are bespoke cigar shaped boats with twin 300 plus on the back that go along at 35 degrees until on the plane. These boats must be insured so I'd try and find out more. I would dread to think what the insurance would be though! Sorry to be a kill joy. Must be quite some boat. Dread to think what the acceleration is like  

If the manufacturer won't sanction your engines you can be sure your insurer will refuse any claim you make for anything remotely related.  

Mmmm my dream boat might have just become a nightmare : ( Sean at cheetah said he would do me a 7.9 with I think he said 2 x 225 Hondas on. I am sure he said the 250 is in a different housing so the weight is a little higher and the concern was centre of gravity at speed. I think there is only 10Kg difference between the 200/225 and the 250hp so I thought it would be safe. Me at 6ft7 and on the wrong side of 20st would make far more cornering difference at the helm height. Clinker the boat was finished by a man who runs a marine stainless company who makes fuel tanks and fittings for both large and small boat so I hope he knew what he was doing. When we are talking about a claim are you talking about me getting paid out if I flip it and sink at sea or if I put a foot long scratch down a 65ft sun seeker when my old friend Mr wind blow me off course entering the lock? I presume the latter would be ok to get a third party boat fixed but anything speed related would be a problem. Sorry Stiffer I have seem to have hijacked your post. I might have a boat for sale soon though if you want a overpowered uninsurable beast : 0  

Try talking to these people - when I wanted to check that everything was as it should be for the CE certification for the boat I bought, they were very helpful: http://www.ceproof.com Hopefully your builder did understand how his stainless structure would load into the GRP structure and spoke to to Cheetah about his plans - if you've had two great engines hanging off the structures and there's no signs of any stress on the GRP, I'm sure all would be OK - you'd have to think that if there were problems with such reinforcing, they would show themselves sooner rather than later.  

Worst case scenario then is you swap your 250s for 225s and get the manufacturer to issue a CE plate or written approval, providing he doesn't object to the other alterations. Is the guy who finished the boat in a position to issue the plate? Selling might be an issue without one. And your insurer might still prove 'difficult ' in the event of a claim.  

I have emailed the insurance to ask advice so will go from there. They had the top speed and power so they knew it was a fast boat. Fingers crossed all will be ok as I have just got them propped to rev out ha ha  

Fingers crossed for you :thumbsup:  

Another idea. I run the boat with one 250 but have a rather large auxiliary? Ha ha  

Why don't you sell both 250's and put 225's on instead then ?  

Gary do you not need a CE plate to sell it if made less than 5 years ago?  

yes but technically mine is 5 years old now but only been in the water 2 years.  

Which leads to another interesting point - how do they check when you built a self build boat? - Obviously with yours you have the very extensive thread on WSF - but is it 'built' when the hull is complete, the hull and superstructure are complete, or when the boat is fully fitted and ready for water?  

i got a 7.9 cheetah with 115 yams on the back,cruises at 19kts @3500 revs,have carried a ton on the deck and still cruised at 17/18 kts @3900 revs.totally awesome safe boat  

I have dealt a lot over the years with modified motorcycles. Structural work completed by a registered company has never been questioned (for me) but worst case scenario would be an engineers report. As you clearly purchased the boat, then had work done to fit uprated engines, the boat should have been supplied with a CE plate. Then the only question is the "mod" work, which if you supply photo's and details of who carried out the work, they may or may not require a report by an independant engineer. I would contact the boat builder again and request the CE plate for original build as they are legally required to do, then go back to insurers to discuss the modifications.

What the CE plate says seems to be a very unclear situation on quite a few vessels. For example.... I have been looking at a Sessa Dorado 26. CE plate says max engine power 140w. One is fitted with a 190hp penta d3 and the other had twin 150 yams !!! How's that work then ?? Both engine options are over the rated badge spec but both are factory built !! Does the CE plate in Italy mean different things as compared to the UK? Confused.com
