Ever thought about 2 vertical planar surfaces, one on each pontoon of the catamaran?
The naval equivalent of adding explosive charges to the barrage balloons.

If that "explosive charge" is like Chobham armor, it might not be a bad idea.

Another strategy might be to incline the surface of the decoy to a very shallow angle relative to the horizontal, say, about 20 degrees. That might cause a ricocheting effect upward.
