Boat Review: Invincible 40 Catamaran

• By Jim Hendricks
• Updated: September 6, 2018

In my youth, sleep did not come easily on the night before a fishing trip. Now, decades later, on the eve of my Fish Trial of the Invincible 40 Catamaran, I felt the same nervous excitement.

The crew from Invincible Boats —Bill Cordes, Tim Gallagher, Jonathan Lipworth and Zack Powell — had hatched an ambitious plan to depart from Key West at sunrise bound for the Dry Tortugas some 60 miles due west, fish the deep ledges just south of this remote outpost, then return in the afternoon.

Such a trip often requires an overnight stay to provide sufficient fishing time, given the relatively long transit. But Team Invincible was bent on proving that one-day adventures to distant waters are imminently possible, provided you have the right boat. For this reason, an increasing number of anglers are considering big, powerful catamaran hulls, and Invincible is on the leading edge of the cat craze.

Room to Roam

As Sport Fishing Group Publisher Scott Salyers and I stepped aboard the 40 Cat in the gray light of dawn on that warm, clear morning in early June, I was immediately struck by the immense aft cockpit afforded by the 12-foot beam. Interior width measured more than 11 feet wide by 5 feet 4 inches long. Our crew of seven would have plenty of room to maneuver here without bumping into each other in the event that we experienced multiple hookups. (Spoiler alert: We did.)

Loaded with ice and provisions, we headed out from the marina at the Ocean’s Edge Resort on Stock Island. As we left the no-wake zone, Gallagher accelerated through the narrow, ­meandering channel. The 40 Cat banked gracefully inward while turning at speed.

Pete Morrelli of Morrelli & Melvin, the Newport Beach, California-based marine architectural firm that designed this running surface, credits the semi-asymmetrical cross-sectional design of each sponson for the comfortable handling. “This asymmetric shape allows the boat to lean inward while cornering, versus cat hulls with symmetric cross-sections that tend to turn flat or lean outward in turns,” Morrelli explains.

On the Atlantic side of Key West, Capt. Veach pointed toward his pinfish traps on a shallow flat. We idled into 2 feet of water to pick up the traps. The Cat easily floated and motored about in the shallows without touching bottom. With 26-inch-tall gunwales in the aft quarters, it was fairly easy to reach the traps using a short gaff. We transferred the bait into the twin ­pressurized 55-­gallon transom livewells. We also used the 72-gallon livewell under the aft cockpit sole for several blue runners caught the day prior.

Gallagher motored out to deeper waters, turned the 40 Cat westward, and punched the throttles of the quad Mercury 350 Verado outboards. The double-stepped hull lifted onto plane quickly, and within 10 seconds reached a cruising speed of 55 mph at 5,000 rpm, where the quad 350s burned 60 gph for 0.91 mpg.

Using computational fluid-dynamic computer software, the design team at Morrelli & Melvin, which specializes in catamarans, tested lots of running surfaces before actually building this Invincible, Morrelli says. “This allowed us to refine the design of the twin steps to maximize speed and efficiency,” he explains. Morrelli & Melvin is one of the few firms that utilizes such software, which was originally developed by NASA, for recreational hull designs.

Calm winds and a slight west swell did not pose much of a challenge for this boat on test day. Yet as we crested the wakes of passing shrimp boats, I gained of sense of its seakeeping ability, which is different than that of a V-hull.

“Notice that there is very little bow‑to-stern rocking motion and virtually no deceleration when meeting the waves, as you might experience with a V-hull,” Gallagher points out. A pod between the sponsons helps split the water that rushes between the hulls to further soften the ride. All of this results in a high level of crew comfort, whether seated at the helm, in the aft foldout jump seats or in the forward console seat.

Twin flush-mounted Garmin GPSMap 8617 (17-inch) multifunction displays help guide the way offshore. The 40 Cat’s center console melds with the hardtop thanks to integral, ­powder-coated aluminum uprights, which frame the thick acrylic windshield and side windows that protect the helm.

My test boat came with a leaning-­post-style helm seat with tackle stowage underneath and room for three people, but you can option this boat with three-across bucket helm seats with fold-down armrests and flip-up bolsters. Abaft the helm seats is seating for three in an aft-facing bench.

Time to Fish

We reached our first fishing spot — a hard-bottom ledge in 165 feet of water 60 miles from Key West — in a scant 80 minutes. With the historic Fort Jefferson barely visible to the north, Veach took over the helm to zero in on the hot spot. Powell walked forward to the massive anchor locker in the forepeak. The 40 Cat characteristically carries its wide beam all the way to the bow, and this affords plenty of foot room aside the console and the extra‑large coffin box on the foredeck.

The optional 960-quart coffin box is super wide with dividers inside to separate cold-storage items. Each side of the box is lined with seven vertical rod holders, and the top doubles as a ­padded lounger.

Just minutes after the boat settled back on the anchor, I was hooked up. As I battled the fish, I appreciated the coaming pads that completely encircled the interior to cushion my legs. A 15-pound mutton snapper soon rose from the depths and was deposited on ice. The 40 Cat has plenty of room to keep fish: two fish boxes below the aft cockpit — 268 gallons to starboard and 414 gallons to port — and two 158-gallon boxes forward. I also found two 8-foot-long dry lockers forward.

The action accelerated ­throughout the morning; nonstop catching ­highlighted by a number of multiple hookups. From amberjack, black grouper and blackfin tuna to kingfish, mahi and mutton snapper, this deep ledge produced a cornucopia of game species.

After three hours, we experienced a slight lull in the action, and Veach decided to try a new spot in 170 feet of water about 2 miles from the first. While en route, we cleaned up the deck using the freshwater washdown (there’s also a raw-water washdown) fed by an 82-gallon freshwater capacity. Veach quickly found the second spot using the Garmin GSD26 chirp fish finder, and action turned full speed again for another three hours.

Numbers Game

By 3 p.m., everyone’s arms were too sore to pull on any more fish, and so we headed back. By 4:15 p.m., we were off Key West, where we paused to collect performance data on the cat with the real-world load of seven crewmembers, 400 gallons of fuel, 45 gallons of fresh water, 500 pounds of fish, 300 pounds of ice, and 180 pounds of livewell water. Even with this load, the four Verado 350s propelled the 40 Cat to 30 mph in 8.7 seconds and rocketed to a top speed of 71 mph at 6,400 rpm, while burning 138 gph for 0.51 mpg.

Best fuel efficiency occurred at 3,500 rpm and 33 mph, where the quad outboards burned 32 gph for slightly over 1 mpg, resulting in a cruising range of more than 600 miles.

However, as indicated earlier, the beauty of this boat lies in its ability to reach distant fishing spots quickly and return home the same day. So you’ll probably want to run well above the 33 mph, up toward 55 or 60 mph.

If the prospect of such trips keeps you up at night with nervous excitement, perhaps you need to think seriously about adopting this big, fast cat.

We take pride in our happy customers

My wife and I want to take a moment to recognize Cynthia Wummer for her amazing work during the purchase of our first boat, a 2018 Lagoon 40 (SV Southern Wild). We were so incredibly pleased with Cynthia and the way she handled this difficult and complex process with ease! She gave us the “white glove” treatment every step of the way. She was extremely proactive in setting up multiple virtual meetings, she expertly and personally handled our survey abroad, and she even guided the sellers throughout. She was a bulldog when we needed her to be during the negotiations (we honestly felt sorry for the sellers!) but she was also eloquent and used a gentle touch when we hit her with many questions. We can’t say enough about this outstanding experience with Cynthia. She reflects outstanding credit upon The Multihull Company and you guys are lucky to have her on your team! Thank you all so much for making our first boat purchase not only a success, but a treasured memory.

Your team delivered on every mark. You’ve got an amazing broker in Mark Wattrus and I’m confident you will have continued success moving forward together. He was available 24/7 whenever I had questions. We had a great initial visit on the boat and his marketing plan and photos were superb

I bought a yacht that I had never seen. I did this because I trusted my broker Andrew Holland. It was not an easy job for Andrew, as I am an experienced boat builder and owner of previous yachts, but work in West Africa. Imagine how hard it was to communicate what I was looking for. Andrew came up with exactly what I wanted. He dealt with time delays, all my questions at odd hours, and was there for the survey. He reported honestly and professionally. After buying the yacht, I arrived at the boat on a Sunday night, after dark, after travelling from West Africa to the Caribbean, and found it was better than expected. He never pulled punches and made me aware of shortfalls. I expected to spend my one month leave working on the boat, but actually spent less than one week, and was able to spend 3 weeks sailing – wonderful bonus.

Thank you Andrew for putting up with all my questions, all my worries and all my crazy out of the time zone concerns – you were totally professional, but also I know that if and when we meet up, it will be like a friend finally meeting. You are always welcome on Aseka.

— Beverly Cory

Outstanding company with professional subject matter experts. If I were to buy or sell cruising sailboat, particularly a catamaran, Andrew would be my go to broker.

I have been sailing since I was a child and attended Massachusetts Maritime Academy. But when my wife and I began the process of purchasing an ocean cruising/racing catamaran, I realized that this is a world unto itself. Obviously, we needed to find someone knowledgeable to help us make an informed decision. More importantly, we needed someone honest and willing to put our interests before his or her own. I was lucky to work with Phil Berman at The Multihull Company. He repeatedly shunned the fast buck, choosing instead to work the long road to connect us with the “perfect boat”. I would be glad to recommend Phil and his company to anyone planning to purchase or sell a performance sailing machine.

Invincible Boats 40 Cat Boat Test

• By Jim Hendricks
• Updated: November 13, 2018

Power catamarans seem to be making a new charge on the saltwater fishing market, and one of the latest to emerge is the Invincible 40 Cat. Our testing revealed a boat that runs fast, rides smooth and affords an immense amount of deck space.

The aft cockpit interior width measured more than 11 feet wide by 5 feet 4 inches long. The 26-inch-tall gunwales offer plenty of security in rough seas. Wide walkways aside the center console and level deck throughout offer easy access to and from the forward cockpit, which maintains its width thanks to the characteristics of the cat design.

The 40 Cat banked gracefully inward while turning at speed. (For more on the ride ­qualities, see “Another Take.”) Pete Melvin of Morrelli & Melvin Desin and Engineering, Inc., the Newport Beach, California-based marine architectural firm that designed this running surface, credits the semi-asymmetrical cross-sectional design of each sponson for the V-hull-like handling. “This asymmetric shape allows the boat to lean inward while cornering, versus cat hulls with symmetric cross sections that tend to turn flat or lean outward in turns,” Morrelli explains.

If you’re looking for a comparison boat, check out one from South Carolina-based Freeman Boatworks. The 42LR Freeman ($575,000 with quad Mercury Verado 350s) multihull center-console offers 2 more feet in length, but 3 inches less beam than Invincible’s 40 Cat.

Our 40 Cat was equipped with twin flush-mounted Garmin GPSMap 8617 (17-inch) multifunction displays to access the Garmin radar and fish finder, as well as chart plotting. The 40 Cat’s center console melds with the hardtop thanks to integral, powder-coated aluminum uprights, which frame the thick acrylic windshield and side windows that protect the helm

While our test boat came with a leaning-post-style helm seat with tackle stowage underneath and room for three people, you can option this boat with three-across bucket helm seats with fold-down armrests and flip-up bolsters. Abaft the helm seats is seating for three in an aft-facing bench.

For fishing, the 40 Cat features twin pressurized 55-gallon transom livewells, as well as a 72-gallon livewell under the aft cockpit sole. The insulated 960-quart XL coffin box in the foredeck of our tester offered dividers inside to separate cold-storage items. Each side of the box was lined with seven vertical rod holders, and the top doubled as a padded lounger.

The 40 Cat has plenty of room to keep fish: two fish boxes below the aft cockpit — 268 gallons to starboard and 414 gallons to port — and two 158-gallon boxes forward. I also found two 8-foot-long dry lockers forward. To clean up, the 40 Cat has a raw-water washdown, as well as a freshwater washdown fed by an 82-gallon freshwater capacity. Powered by quad Mercury 350 Verado outboards, the double-stepped hull reached 30 mph within 10 seconds. With a load of seven crewmembers, 400 gallons of fuel, 45 gallons of fresh water, 500 pounds of fish, 300 pounds of ice, and 180 gallons of livewell water, the 40 Cat reached a top speed of 71 mph at 6,400 rpm. Best fuel efficiency occurred at 4,000 rpm and 40 mph, where the quad outboards burned 41.8 gph for about 1 mpg.

Another Take Anyone who has ever driven a boat in New York Harbor, where the Hudson and East Rivers converge at the southern tip of Manhattan, knows a thing or two about rough-water handling. All it takes is one or two passes from the local fast ferries and the whole area is churned into one giant confused sea, with rollers that can rival any inlet’s. So this proved to be the perfect place to test the Invincible 40’s offshore mettle, and it passed with flying colors.

With its asymmetrical hull design, the boat popped onto plane with negligible bow rise and, despite having a tall center console with a fully enclosed windshield, no loss of vision at the helm. In fact, while at the wheel, I noted the boat’s excellent all-around visibility, an important plus when playing in traffic in a place like New York. We took on huge ferry wakes that mimicked head, quartering and following seas — sometimes cleanly and sometimes in a confused state — and the ­Invincible handled everything with aplomb. No matter what waves we took on, our passengers felt secure thanks to the high freeboard and ample grab handles around the boat. I especially liked the ergonomic handles on the T-top supports near the helm that accommodate passengers who wish to stand near the captain underway.

With eight people on board, a full fuel load, plus a full water system and a full arsenal of offshore fishing gear, we hit a top speed of just under 70 mph. Jim was able to eke out an extra few mph in his test, with a similar fuel load and seven aboard. Mercury testers produced speeds in the mid-70s. No matter, in moderate sea conditions this boat can run all day in the 4,000 to 4,500 rpm range, cruising comfortably along at speeds over 40 mph. Our tester came equipped with ­Mercury ­Active Trim, which took the guessing game out of finding the sweet spot — not that you need much trim to get this cat going anyhow.

If you’re looking for a boat that can run offshore all day without beating up your crew, the Invincible 40 Cat is a great choice. — Pete McDonald

High Points

• Asymmetrical design of each sponson results in V-hull-like cornering in turns.
• Smooth ride in choppy water with little or no deceleration when meeting waves.
• Immense amount of level deck space accommodates a large group of anglers.
• Nature of the catamaran design means that there is no step-down inside the console, which limits headroom.
• The 12-foot beam might create issues in finding dock space, such as along the canals with regulations limiting beam width.
