SILVERCAT HIGHLIGHTS THE REGIONAL CATAMARAN APPEAL AT ABU DHABI INTERNATIONAL BOAT SHOW

SilverCAT, the power catamaran brand of the Gulf Craft Group, is proud to take part in the Abu Dhabi International Boat Show (ADIBS) 2025, showcasing prime examples of its fleet and reaffirming its position as one of the region’s most progressive names in multi-hull innovation.

Drawing on more than four decades of Gulf Craft’s composite manufacturing expertise, SilverCAT power catamarans are engineered for stability, efficiency, and versatility. With a deep respect for the sea at its core, SilverCAT models are built to deliver an exceptional  experience on the water, while superior fuel efficiency keeps operating costs low and extends every voyage.

Expansive deck areas create a comfortable environment for fishing, family leisure and diving, and their all-weather capability ensures confident handling and consistent comfort across changing sea states.

As global demand for catamarans continues to rise and more owners and operators are turning to twin-hull designs for their comfort, versatility, and all-condition capability, SilverCAT’s appearance at ADIBS with 2 cats – 40 LUX and 35 CX – provides an ideal platform to connect with the Abu Dhabi and UAE residents as well as the dealers from key international markets.

The 40 LUX showcases the enclosed layout of the SilverCAT range, offering a fully protected cabin with generous interior comfort and all-weather capability – perfect for year-round cruising. In comparison, the 35 CX presents the open-layout option, designed for flexibility and active use. Its open deck plan, minimal structural enclosures, and streamlined cabin make it ideal for outdoor leisure, fishing, diving, and island-hopping adventures.

Abu Dhabi’s marine environment and unique geography make SilverCAT an exceptionally natural fit for local boaters. With its vast mangrove reserves, shallow coastal flats, and nearly 200 islands scattered across the emirate, the region rewards vessels with low draft, high stability, and excellent fuel efficiency – all hallmarks of the catamaran platform.

“SilverCAT’s twin-hull design enables smooth navigation through narrow passages and shallow waters, making it ideal for island hopping, mangrove creek exploration, weekend sandbank trips, fishing excursions, and family cruising. For clients seeking comfort, practicality, and year-round versatility, SilverCAT catamarans deliver secure handling, abundant deck space, and the ability to explore more of Abu Dhabi’s coastline with confidence and ease,” said Craig Rodgers, Operations Manager of SilverCAT.

Features

The All-New Nissan Patrol blends rugged styling, off-road capability, and premium comfort, making it a standout SUV for adventure and urban driving alike.

Upfront, the Patrol proudly displays its "Bold Presence" design philosophy, now enhanced by a wider, more pronounced V-motion grille that pays homage to the second-generation Patrol with its integrated horizontal bar. This commanding feature is paired with sharply sculpted lines and modern lighting elements, including the distinctive new “double-C” lamp design, which together forge a futuristic yet unmistakably Patrol exterior. The full-width rear light bar further accentuates this evolution, maintaining the vehicle's sense of power and prestige.

The side profile of the Patrol is marked by a gently sloping shoulder line that stretches from front to rear, projecting a blend of prestige and agility. This design is accentuated by a rising window line between the C- and D-Pillars, with blacked-out pillars that create a floating roof effect. The iconic Patrol emblem adorns the D-Pillar, enhancing the vehicle's identity. Stylish 22-inch alloy wheels underline the SUV's bold stance, while sleek LED accents modernize the overall design, achieving the perfect balance of aesthetics and functionality.

Inside, the Patrol’s premium cabin offers a glimpse into Nissan’s commitment to “Solid Dignity”. Emphasizing craftsmanship and user-centric innovation, twin displays dominate the console, while soft materials and carefully integrated components maintain an elegant, clean design. In keeping with the Japanese concept of Ma (Mastery of Space), each seating row is crafted with equal attention to detail.

Enhanced roominess and the premium quilted leather with precise stitching inspired by traditional Kumiko patterns, offer passengers a premium experience. Meanwhile, unique touches including the “Since 1951” badge on the center console honor the Patrol’s enduring legacy.

Practicality meets elegance in every detail, from Damping Acoustic glass that ensures a tranquil cabin, to a wireless phone charging mat textured to resemble sand dunes, echoing the Patrol’s natural setting. With increased cargo capacity and thoughtfully engineered seating, including first and second-row seats equipped with NASA-inspired spinal support technology, the all-new Patrol is designed to elevate every journey, whether within city limits or beyond.

The all-new Nissan Patrol, with its unmatched combination of powerful design and premium comfort, is an SUV built to inspire and empower drivers across the region. It offers an array of seven striking exterior colours, each developed to enhance its dynamic appearance. The addition of four vibrant two-tone options to the exterior color palette offers increased personalization, enabling drivers to express their unique style while evoking a sense of authority and elegance.
