The Manta Ray is constructed of space age materials giving it superior strength yet it is lightweight and fuel-efficient. Aircraft grade core materials are sandwiched with bi-axial hand laid fiberglass using high tech resins, designed to hold everything together under the extreme punishment the hulls endure at high speeds.

     The Manta Ray is pound for pound, size for size, the fastest general-purpose utility catamaran ever built. The remarkable stability and smooth ride in beam seas, sets it apart from most deep-v mono-hull boats. The sure-footedness of two hulls is hard to beat in rough conditions. This is one of the primary reasons catamarans have become so popular with boat buyers today. It provides an extremely stable and dry ride, with speed and fuel economy that can't be matched.

     The secret behind the Manta Ray's wave slicing ride is its unique tracking concave skis, which are located on the aft bottom of each hull. This system ensures straight tracking and superior maneuverability that v-bottom mono-hulls simply can't offer.

     The Manta Ray deck design features an ergonomic and aerodynamic center console command center, surrounded by a huge working cockpit 40% larger than any other v-bottom of similar size. That is because the basic deck shape of a cat is rectangular. Probably the best comparison that can be drawn is to a v-bottom with a few feet of its bow chopped off. This logic places the Manta Ray up with 36 footers in terms of available deck space. The Manta Ray is a well designed functional package for inshore or offshore law enforcement work. It planes instantly and gets where it's going quickly with minimum discomfort to driver and crew, and provides a stable work platform once it arrives.
