YOT 36

The first model in a highly ambitious range...

In deciding not to market a power version of the Bali Catsmart, the Catana Group was keen to develop a concept and soon a range totally disconnected from the sailing culture built up by Catana and Bali.

The very first 36-foot YOT is presented as a weekender - a big toy with a metallic gelcoat that you’ll just love... in fact, YOT sounds like a childish version of “yacht”, and also, it’s TOY in reverse. YOT/TOY, in a way, like NEEL/LEEN: two metatheses with the same “marketing mission”, and yet a completely opposite end goal - to stand out from sailing for YOT, and to draw inspiration from it for LEEN. Nevertheless, this first YOT 36 is a real eye-catcher. Devilishly attractive, this model should appeal to single-hull powerboat enthusiasts and first-time buyers alike. The outboard-powered range is set to expand rapidly before being completed by inboard models. These new powercats are built in Portugal, and the Catana Group makes no secret of its ambitions for its new brand: the aim is to match the sailing market by 2030, with no fewer than 400 YOTs built every year...
