Tigershark is a defunct subsidiary of Arctic Cat that produced personal water craft's (PWC) from 1993 until 1999. Tigershark PWC's were designed to be light, sporty and inexpensive, but early models have a reputation for poor build quality and the brand suffered, despite significant improvements with the introduction of the 1997 models. The line was introduced in 1993 as a singular Tigershark model. Across seven years, the brand would consist of 20 offerings between two unique hull designs, 3 various lengths, and two engines in various trim and sizes.
