Our President is an exceptional offshore racer. He has won more than 75 races, including six World Titles and five U.S. National Championships. He was also inducted into the American Power Boat Association Hall of Fame—a rare honor, even more so for a non-American.

Racing as DNA, excellence as a method.

Canados remains actively involved at the highest level of racing with a 38-foot catamaran: 2nd at the 2023 World Championship and 1st in 2024.

This human and technological involvement shapes the shipyard mindset: rigor, precision, and an endless pursuit of better. In 2026, a new 40’ race boat will be built to compete on the American and World circuits.

A full-scale laboratory… for your boat

Beyond prestige, racing is the ultimate real-world test bench for validating new solutions.

Lessons learned aboard a boat exceeding 210 km/h/130 mph—in hydrodynamics and materials—directly feed the engineering choices behind our pleasure power cats.

Because ultimately, what we learn in competition becomes a tangible benefit for you: more efficiency, more reliability, more safety… and more pleasure underway.
