Invincible 35ft Catamaran arrives in Australia
by Boat Monster 9 Dec 2020 20:50 PST
Boat Monster was appointed as Invincible Boat's distributor for Australia and New Zealand earlier in the year with plans to launch the brand at the Perth International Boat Show.
The launch was quickly revised in light of the show's cancellation and a new plan is currently being rolled out in line with current restrictions.
The first Invincible delivered to Australian shores is the 35' Catamaran which landed at Port Kemblar, NSW, late last week. The boat went straight into the water and made its way to Boat Monster's new premises at Sydney's northern beaches with easy access to Pittwater and Broken Bay.
Boat Monster's principals, Sam and Lucy Wallrock*, tested Invincible's range of mono-hulls and catamarans at the Miami Boat Show in February. They decided that the 35' Catamaran was the ideal boat for the Australian launch and already have interest from a number of customers. Sea trials are currently being arranged. Sam Wallrock says, 'We're particularly excited about the Invincible catamarans and believe there's a huge gap in the market here that we are ready to fill.'
A launch event is scheduled to take place in December and the team at Boat Monster hope that now that cross-border rules are being relaxed a number of key industry players will have an opportunity to see and test the Invincible catamaran for themselves.
Sam Wallrock adds, 'None of us were expecting the COVID-19 situation to develop as it did while we were in Miami in February. We've had terrific support from Invincible's international team throughout the last few months. They see our markets as important to their long-term expansion plans and we are very happy be able to get started and to show off this first boat. We expect it to be the first of many now that we can let customers get onboard and see the quality finish for themselves and to experience the fast, dry ride which is a hallmark of the Invincible catamarans.'
'If the last few months have shown us anything, it's that time on the water with family or friends is more important than ever,' says Ian Birdsall, Invincible's VP International Business. 'The cancellation of so many boat shows world-wide has meant we've had to adapt and find new ways to reach customers. Happily we've seen no negative impact on demand as we continue introducing the Invinicble brand to new markets and increasing our recognition with customers who demand the very best in offshore performance. With Boat Monster we have a great partner to do just that.'
About the range

There are 10 boats in the range, five mono-hulls ranging from 33' to 46 and five catamarans which include the recently announced 33' Catamaran, the smallest in the range and the new 46' Catamaran, the largest in the range.

About the 35' Catamaran
The 35' Catamaran is a superior, stable twin hull fishing boat that performs better than a normal catamaran. It is their most compact catamaran, designed for maximum performance out of both twin and quad engine configurations. With a maximum combined horsepower of 1200, the 35 Catamaran is a versatile fishing machine with effortless manoeuvrability, a speedy, comfortable ride and unparalleled stability for a boat of its size. The patent pending twin hull design provides tremendous cockpit space only a catamaran can deliver.
Invincible focused on one objective in the design of their catamarans, sea-keeping ability and the Invincible 35 Catamaran has that in spades. It rides on a Morelli & Melvin hull designed specifically for the company. These distinguished architects delivered a 35-footer that will get you offshore to your favourite fishing grounds with speed and comfort in the most challenging Australian conditions. Think of the wide-open ocean anywhere around the country and this boat will handle it. The 35-Catamaran can tackle seas from all directions whilst still being able to manoeuvre turns at high speeds without the need to drastically pull back on the throttle.
The Invincible 35 Catamaran is a beautifully crafted, spacious and feature packed vessel. The 360 degree walk around deck provides excellent fishability with ample under deck storage for your equipment and catch. This layout is suitable as a trolling package yet maintains the nimbleness to also cast poppers and stick baits at reefs and bommies.
The cleverly designed helm station with hard top and windshield provide excellent protection from Australia's harsh conditions and you can option up with a rigging station or any number of fishing additions.
This compact catamaran provides a comfortable ride and unparalleled stability for a boat of its size and is simply one of the best fishing boats on the market.
