Scimitar Power Cats
A Brief History
Scimitar, an Iconic Australian Brand
A Star is Born
1997-2012
Scimitar Power Catamarans is a name synonymous with Australian ingenuity, efficiency, sea worthiness and practicality beyond its years, and well above its size.
Established in the mid 1990’s, the original Scimitar 1010 was developed by a team of experienced professionals and boaties who were chasing a seamless blend of efficiency, stability, safety, shallow draft, and large deck spaces, all in an affordable platform. Quite the quest.
What the team developed, the market loved, awarding it the Powerboat of the Year in 1997 when the first model was unveiled at the Sanctuary Cove International Boat Show.
Until 2012, under the stewardship of Bryan and Linda Bradford, Scimitar delivered 65 vessels to a range of clients across the world, developing a following and depth of respect, the envy of many much larger brands.
The active and passionate Scimitar owners group continues to extol the virtues of their beloved boats, and share stories of adventures and modifications among the community daily.
A Modern Evolution
2017 - BEYOND
After a few years of hibernation, Bryan and Linda entrusted the brand, the IP and the tooling to Tommy Ericson, a maritime industry professional of more than 20 years, to bring the Scimitar 1010 back to the market. The sale of Scimitar was completed with an unwritten level of responsibility to ensure that the next generation Scimitar becomes the new benchmark in Australian built power catamarans – and those that know the boat realise that is no easy achievement.
Since 2017, Tommy and his team have been working to modernise the look, improve the layout and onboard liveability, integrate new technologies, systems and equipment all whilst ensuring the functionality, reliability and soul of this heralded brand remains.
Now refreshed and relaunched with additional models and options, we’re proud to help bring back this remarkable Australian icon.
