Gulf of Mexico sunsets and tropical shores of Sarasota are at the heart of Florida's premier boating community and home to Defiant Catamarans Corp. Founded in 2002 Defiant has been researching, engineering, designing and building the finest power catamarans available in their class. Defiant Catamarans are manufactured in a clean and modern 27,000 sq. ft. facility in the Wetstone Center for Industry. The founders realized that there was a void in the offerings of the catamaran market that needed to be filled with a new high-end vessel. This would not simply be a high performance boat but a new high quality handcrafted multihull. Defiant envisioned a craft that blends precision craftsmanship, high performance, unique styling and uncompromising attention to detail resulting in a level of refinement previously unavailable in catamarans. At Defiant we believe you don't have to sacrifice styling or beauty to obtain the benefits of the catamaran. Defiant Catamarans Corp. is committed to providing the boating public ongoing reseach and developement to bring to market the industry's finest catamarans. Safety, economy, performance and styling will always be the focus of our mission.
