NCA 36C – AUSTRALIA’S ULTIMATE OFFSHORE RACING CATAMARAN
Supercat Performance • Offshore Capability • One-Design Racing
The NCA 36C represents the pinnacle of Australian high-performance catamaran design.
Developed for sailors seeking true offshore racing performance, the NCA 36C delivers the excitement, speed, and capability normally associated with much larger and significantly more expensive international racing catamarans.
Capable of speeds exceeding 30 knots, the 36C combines advanced construction, modern sail plans, and refined hydrodynamics into a platform designed to perform at the highest level.
With a crew of only 3–4 sailors, the NCA 36C delivers breathtaking performance while remaining manageable, efficient, and practical to campaign.

Key Features
The Supercat Experience
The NCA 36C delivers a level of performance rarely found in production catamarans.
Designed from the outset as a high-performance offshore racing machine, the 36C combines speed, balance, and control across a wide range of sailing conditions.
Whether racing offshore passages, coastal events, or high-speed inshore races, the platform remains stable, predictable, and remarkably efficient.
Few racing catamarans offer this combination of speed, capability, and value.
Comparable offshore racing catamarans often cost several times more, placing them beyond the reach of many sailors.
The NCA 36C delivers genuine supercat performance at a fraction of the cost.
Designed for Speed
Every aspect of the NCA 36C has been designed around performance.
The large square-top mainsail, self-tacking jib, and gennaker package provide power across all points of sail.
High-aspect daggerboards and shark-fin rudders deliver exceptional lift, tracking, and control at speed.
Large-volume hulls allow the platform to be driven hard in demanding offshore conditions while maintaining stability and confidence.
The result is a catamaran capable of delivering sustained high-speed performance while remaining manageable for a relatively small crew.
True One-Design Racing
The NCA 36C is more than simply a large catamaran.
It is a true one-design racing platform.
This allows crews to compete on skill, preparation, tactics, and teamwork rather than equipment advantages.
The one-design concept helps control campaign costs while creating close, competitive racing between identical boats.
Few catamarans of this size offer genuine one-design competition.
