PerryCat 44.5

PURRFECT

The PerryCat 44.5 vessel Purrfect underwent a comprehensive repower and upgrade, replacing its original Yanmar 4JH4-TE mechanical injection engines with advanced Yanmar 4LV250 Common Rail engines. The upgrade resulted in a cleaner, quieter, and more fuel-efficient performance with multi-stage injection technology. Managed by top shipwrights and painters, the project included custom dash installation, engine bed modifications, a full vessel respray, and in-house antifouling at The Boat Works Marina. Post-repower, Purrfect achieved impressive performance — 25 knots at 3500 RPM and a cruising speed of 15 knots at 2500 RPM.
