American Custom Catamarans
Strong. Smart. Stylish. A New Standard in American Boatbuilding.
Pier-1 Marine is proud to offer the full lineup of semi-custom center console catamarans from American Custom Catamarans — vessels crafted for boaters who demand performance, durability, and versatility on the water. Built on a pursuit of excellence, precision, passion, and innovation, each model is designed to deliver an exceptional experience, whether running offshore in pursuit of the day’s catch, drifting a dive site, cruising the coast, or spending a long weekend with family at the sandbar.
Handcrafted at the builder’s facility in Fort Pierce, Florida, American Custom Catamarans blends skilled American boatbuilding with advanced design techniques to produce vessels that meet the highest standards in the industry. The twin-hull catamaran platform is the foundation of every build, delivering the stability, dry ride, and confident handling that monohulls simply can’t match in chop and open water.
What sets these catamarans apart is that every boat is built around its owner. Each vessel is thoughtfully designed and handcrafted to match individual preferences — a hardcore offshore fishing machine, a comfortable sandbar cruiser, or a custom combination of both. From specialized deck layouts and premium finishes to custom rigging and high-performance features, every detail reflects the owner’s vision.
The result is a one-of-a-kind ownership experience, and Pier-1 Marine is your local source to make it happen. Discover a new standard in American boatbuilding.
The American 17: The Ultimate in Luxury Performance Fishing
Compact, capable, and built to punch well above its size, the American 17 is the perfect catamaran for near-shore and offshore fishing alike. This nimble twin-hull rig brings the legendary stability and dry ride of a catamaran to a trailerable package — easy to launch, easy to run, and ready for everything from inshore flats to a run beyond the inlet.
Buyers can power it their way with a choice of Honda outboard motors ranging from 140hp to 250hp, delivering reliable, exhilarating performance without compromising comfort or safety. The catamaran hull stays planted and confident in the chop, keeping the focus on the fishing rather than the ride home.
True to the American Custom Catamarans philosophy, the American 17 is built your boat, your choice — with the deck layout, finishes, and rigging tailored to the way each owner fishes and cruises.
The American 22: The Ultimate Luxury, Performance, Offshore Fishing Catamaran
Now available at Pier-1 Marine. When the fish are running offshore, the American 22 is built to get there and bring its crew home in comfort. Engineered for durability, functionality, and performance, this catamaran combines rugged strength with sophisticated design, giving owners the confidence to run offshore in conditions that turn lesser boats back to the dock.
Built on a wide, stable 8’6″ beam, the American 22 rides flat and dry while delivering the serious fishing capability offshore anglers demand. It comes outfitted for the hunt: dual rear 30-gallon live wells keep bait lively, while 1,200 quarts of insulated, macerated in-deck fish boxes keep the catch cold and the deck clear.
Power is matched to the mission, with Honda engines ranging from twin 90hp to twin 250hp — from efficient cruising to the kind of thrust that reaches the grounds first. This is the ultimate luxury, performance, offshore fishing rig, and like every American Custom Catamarans build, it can be customized to fit exactly how its owner runs.
