Detailed Evaluation & Buyer Recommendation
Twin Vee Catamarans 22 ft. Dual Console Ocean Cat 2012 vs Twin Vee Catamarans 32 ft. Center Console 2011: Which Catamaran Boat Fits Your Needs?
Both the Twin Vee Catamarans 22 ft. Dual Console Ocean Cat 2012 and the Twin Vee Catamarans 32 ft. Center Console 2011 are catamaran designs, both built in fibreglass, so the buying decision usually comes down to a handful of practical questions: how many people are you putting on the water, how far do you trailer, and what does your tow vehicle weigh?
The power gap is worth calling out. Rated to 600 hp, the Twin Vee Catamarans 32 ft. Center Console 2011 has a 320-hp advantage over the Twin Vee Catamarans 22 ft. Dual Console Ocean Cat 2012's 280-hp ceiling - enough to notice on acceleration and at cruising speed, particularly with a full passenger load. Fuel capacity breaks the other way: the Twin Vee Catamarans 32 ft. Center Console 2011 carries 240 gallons versus 120 gallons in the Twin Vee Catamarans 22 ft. Dual Console Ocean Cat 2012.

Dual Console Ocean Cat 2012 is rated for 10 passengers, while the Twin Vee Catamarans 32 ft. Center Console 2011 caps at 9. If you're regularly pulling extended family or a group of friends onto the water, the extra seats on the Twin Vee Catamarans 22 ft. Dual Console Ocean Cat 2012 could be the deciding factor.
Bottom line: Choose the Twin Vee Catamarans 22 ft. Dual Console Ocean Cat 2012 if your priority is putting more people on the water - it handles 10 passengers and at 22,0 ft it has the deck room to back that rating up comfortably.
