56' C-Catamarans 2023

The new C-Cat 56 designed by Enrico Contreas and Marco Arnadio is the ultimate Bluewater family cruising catamaran.  She is a spacious modern design that is as much at home cruising the Mediterranean, as she is crossing the Pacific Ocean.

The exterior design is characterized by streamlined lines for a contemporary sportiness, enhanced by the steering positions.  The bulkhead mounted helm positions are designed as an integral part of the superstructure.  The expansive cockpit has an open and inviting feel, while still feel protected and enclosed.

The interior feels light, open, and airy thanks to her expansive windows with lighter tones throughout.  She is available in either a 3 cabin or 4 cabin layout.

Like all C-Cats this boat is custom built to meet the exact specifications of even the most demanding yachtsmen.
