๐ OVER 30 YEARS OF CONTINUOUS PRODUCTION, PARTS SUPPORT AND FLEET RACING IN AUSTRALIA
Few catamarans can claim such a long and successful history. For more than 30 years, the NCA 4.5 has been continuously built, developed, raced and supported in Australia, giving owners confidence that parts, technical knowledge and fleet support remain readily available.
Today, NCA 4.5 fleets continue to race throughout Australia, with boats regularly competing at club, state and national championship level. The class has established a strong reputation for performance, versatility and close one-design racing across a wide range of conditions.
Built locally in Australia, the NCA 4.5 Mk2 remains one of the most versatile catamarans available. With the option of a front trampoline and storage box, it is equally at home racing, cruising, family sailing and adventure sailing.
The strength of the design is further demonstrated by its commercial heritage. Surveyed fleet versions carrying up to four people are still operating more than 30 years after they were first built โ a testament to the durability, reliability and longevity of the design.
Owners are supported through an Australian dealer network, together with local parts supply and technical support.

Throwback Friday
From early development days on the beach to racing today โ the NCA 16sq has been part of a long and active Australian sailing history.
Building in Australia since 1985, with the NCA 16sq introduced in 1987, the class has continued to evolve through generations of sailors while remaining an active one-design racing fleet today.
These boats have delivered decades of close racing, with ongoing support, available parts, and strong resale value still evident across the fleet.
From then to now โ still racing, still supported, still relevant.
Our legacy continues with NCA Catamarans โ built in Australia, by sailors for sailors

๐๐๐ A Busy finish for the year and an update from NCA Catamarans ๐๐๐
A new name, the same experienced team โ and a seriously busy end to the year.
In just a few short months since launching NCA Catamarans, the momentum has been building, and this week really summed it up. Weโve just delivered 5 boats across Queensland and NSW, while continuing to push forward with development, innovation, and growth under the NCA banner.
Built on 40 years of Australian catamaran manufacturing experience, the same team and facilities now operate independently as NCA Catamarans. This gives us the freedom to innovate, manufacture locally, and create new opportunities both here and overseas โ and the results are already showing.
๐ A Huge Delivery Week
This week alone, we delivered five boats to great homes and even better causes:
Sydney โ heading to a holiday house, ready for family sailing and summer fun
Mackay โ 2 boats delivered and ready to hit the water
Lake Samsonvale Water Sports Association โ 2 x NCA 350s heading to a sailing club, where theyโll help introduce kids to catamaran sailing as they step up from learn-to-sail dinghies โต๐
โ๏ธ What Weโve Achieved Since Rebranding
Since launching NCA Catamarans, weโve:
Completed a full rebrand including logo, signage, boat graphics, vehicles, and website updates
Sold multiple second-hand boats under the NCA name
Supplied parts and accessories worldwide
Continued strong support for existing fleets
Seen growing interest locally and internationally
๐ง Ongoing Boat Improvements
Weโve also been busy improving the hire/resort boats themselves, with recent upgrades including:
Shallow-draft rudders
Aluminium oxide hull protection
Mast floats
Improved, longer-lasting sails for the hire-market range
Behind the scenes, development continues with:
Australian-made rolling bearing systems
A new rear beam for the NCA 350
Optional black beams and mast on selected models
A Deluxe option package on selected models
๐ฎ Looking Ahead
Weโre also working on a brand-new 5.0m catamaran, aimed at club racers and social sailors, targeted around AUD $22,000 โ more to share on that soon.
Itโs only been a few months, but the progress has been steady, exciting, and incredibly rewarding. Delivering boats, supporting sailors, and seeing NCA cats spread across Australia reminds us why we do this.
๐ Wishing everyone a Merry Christmas and a fantastic sailing season ahead.
Thank you to our customers, clubs, and supporters for being part of the journey โ we canโt wait to see these boats out on the water.
