Commercial & Fleet — Australia
Relocatable luxury accommodation. On water. On land.
Fully electric, self-sufficient, trailerable vessels that operate as overwater suites by day and off-grid land accommodation by night. A new asset class for resort groups, eco-tourism operators and developers.
The planning problem
Permanent waterfront construction is a permanent risk.
Conventional overwater or waterfront accommodation means development approvals, environmental assessments, years of delay and capital stranded in a single location. If conditions change — regulatory, environmental, commercial — the asset cannot move.
A Cat Cruiser deploys in days, not years. No DA. No permanent footings. No stranded asset. Move it between sites seasonally, or remove it entirely.
Built room
- Development approval required
- Years to revenue
- Fixed to one site, permanently
- Stranded if conditions change
Cat Cruiser
- No DA, no permanent footings
- Deployed in days
- Relocates seasonally or on demand
- Retains secondhand resale value
Days, not years.
From trailer to revenue-generating suite, without a single approval.
The economics
Suite-level nightly rates. Without construction cost.
Each vessel operates as premium accommodation inventory at nightly rates comparable to a high-end suite — and the model is already charter-proven. Unlike a built room, the asset can be sold on the secondhand market when your strategy changes.
Flexible
Structured finance through Aus Loans, with charter-backed economics to help offset repayments.
86%
Operators retain 86% of revenue above the repayment threshold. The remainder of the week is margin.
Liquid
A revenue-generating asset with a genuine secondhand market. Your capital is never poured into the ground.
The vessel
Three models. One platform.
Every Cat Cruiser is designed and built on the Gold Coast, and engineered to operate as a suite on the water and self-sufficient accommodation on land. Register your interest for delivery timing.
CC 650
6.5 mThe agile entry point. A self-contained electric suite suited to intimate sites, tight moorings and boutique operators building a first fleet.
CC 750
7.5 mThe flagship. Generous galley, full amenities and a deck built for long stays. The reference vessel for overwater suite operations.
CC 870
8.7 mThe grand tourer. Sleeps up to eight, configured for extended itineraries, family groups and premium multi-night programmes.

Zero gas on board
Electric hot water and an induction galley. No LPG, no gas compliance burden on site.
Starlink-ready
Provisioned for Starlink connectivity, so remote sites stay connected.
0.2 m draft
Beach-launch capable. Deploys from a ramp or the shoreline, no marina required.

Climate-adaptive assets
A portfolio that can be relocated cannot be stranded.
Floodable coastlines. Seasonal demand shifts. Site closures and lease changes. Fixed accommodation carries the full weight of every one of these risks — a vessel carries none of them.
When conditions change, a Cat Cruiser fleet simply moves: to a new shoreline, a new property, a new season. Your accommodation inventory follows the demand, wherever it goes.
Electric propulsion. Zero emissions on site. No gas on board.
