C-Cat 56
This beautiful design comes from the hand of Enrico Contreas and Marco Amadio. Powerful lines and daggerboards that promise a lot of speed and a modern and light interior with all the comfort one could wish for. A great catamaran to stay on or even live on for a long time!
2 interior options are available on the C-Cat 56,
The standard owner’s version with the owner’s hull on the port side with a large bed in the rear and a large bathroom in the front and a hull on the starboard side with a spacious sleeping cabin at the front and rear and a spacious bathroom in between.
Or the charter version with 2 equal hulls with a spacious sleeping cabin at the front and back and a spacious bathroom in between.
In the bow a skipper/crew cabin can be installed
The saloon on the bridge deck between the hulls has a spacious seating area, chart table with optional steering option and a very spacious U-kitchen, because the saloon inside and the cockpit outside are on the same level, the indoor and outdoor space can easily be pulled together to form one large space.
Due to the vacuum injection of the laminate with epoxy vinyl ester resin and the use of carbon at the points where large forces occur, a very light and rigid construction has been created, it is also possible to build the C-Cat 56 entirely from carbon.
It’s been mentioned before, our C-Cats are fast. Speed is also safety, it is also easier to avoid or keep up with weather systems on long trips. But there is more security; both bows have a so-called “crash box” at the very front. This ensures that when hitting a hard object, water does not immediately run through the entire boat, but it keeps the damage in place.
In fact, there are 4 airtight compartments that make the C-Cat 56 unsinkable! The daggerboards have fracture surfaces so that they could break off under water in a (very) hard collision without damaging the hull.
We do everything for a comfortable and safe feeling on board!
The C-Catamaran yard is a relatively small yard, so we are flexible to accommodate owner’s wishes. Chartering or living on board gives you other wishes, just indicate these and we will make your C-Cat exactly the way you want it!
