Company History
Incat Crowther was formed by the merging of Incat Designs and Crowther Design, with the origins of the firm dating back to the 1970s.
Incat Designs – Sydney, with Phil Hercus at the helm, built an industry leading design firm that has produced over 170 boats for worldwide service. Many of these designs were industry firsts, including the revolutionary Wave Piercing Catamaran.
Crowther Design has its roots back to Lock Crowther, who was a pioneer in sailing catamaran design, later applying his efforts to high-speed catamaran ferries and work boats. Derivatives of his bulbous bow catamaran hull form are now used extensively in the industry. Crowther Design became well known for its large range of successful commercial vessels which number in excess of 130.
