Our Rogers designed Power Catamaran which was built from the ground up to have outboards on the rear making it a very unique cruising verssel. Her low-hours outboard engines offer excellent fuel economy as well as engineering simplicity. Â Bilgola is a displacement hull, cruising comfortably at 5-7 knots (using 5-7 litres total per hour at this speed). 5000 rpm will give you 11 knots.
Note 14 Feb 2026, New Props, Motors Serviced, Anodes added, Through Hull fittings and Antifoul completed.
Bilgola ("swirling waters") has been the perfect boat for us to foray into our 'big boat' dreams, from both a price-point perspective, as well as learning about comfortable life on the water. With 2 small doubles and 2 singles, and an incredibly-roomy port-side shower/bathroom, Bilgola also offers a lovely open saloon area on the main deck, with outside covers for her starboard, port and front windows. Her starboard-side galley is equipped with gas cooktop and grill, sink, and a Brass Monkey 65 litre fridge/freezer. Her gas hot-water system allows for lovely warm winter showers, and her recently-added watermaker - producing 25 litres per 17 minutes - allows for some extra shower indulgence for those chilly nights or extra-salty play-days.
Bilgola is very cheap to run and maintain, just drive to where you want, drop the anchor close to the beach and relax. If you are sitting for a few days out there just lift the motors up out of the water. From the water line down construction is fiberglass.
If you're after a power cat with a very reasonable entry price-point, or perhaps are considering downsizing to a smaller, simpler boat, Bilgola could be the one for you.
