CAT 56

This new model, now in build at the Austin Parker shipyard, should be followed by other projects to be unveiled over the next few years. In terms of design, the CAT 56 stands out for its sporty character, copying the visual codes of its superyachts. The deck features a cockpit with direct access to the sea. The flybridge is home to a spacious sundeck, wet bar and the helm station.

The interior features spacious, well-lit spaces, such as the saloon, which houses an open-plan galley and lounge area, both open to the outside. The finishes are advertised as superior to those of yachts in the same sector. In addition to the living area, the CAT 56 offers an owner’s cabin that occupies the entire available width in the forward area, with a dressing area and desk, two guest cabins with dedicated bathrooms and a crew cabin.
