South African builder Current Marine launched this performance catamaran in 2021, bringing Schionning Design's proven philosophy to the 46-foot segment. The Cm 46 represents a modern approach to cruising catamarans, emphasizing speed and efficiency without sacrificing livability. Built with GRP construction incorporating carbon fiber reinforcement and closed cell PVC core, this twin-daggerboard catamaran achieves an impressive strength-to-weight ratio. The relatively light displacement of 14,330 pounds combined with generous sail area delivers a competitive SA/Displacement ratio of 33.4, indicating genuine performance potential that separates it from heavier cruising cats. Schionning's signature design elements shine through in the Cm 46's proportions. The fractional sloop rig provides excellent control across varying wind conditions, while the shallow 3.94-foot draft opens up countless anchorages typically inaccessible to deeper monohulls. Twin 30-horsepower engines ensure reliable auxiliary power. This catamaran excels in coastal and offshore cruising where performance matters. The daggerboard configuration allows for impressive windward ability while maintaining the shallow draft advantage when boards are raised. For sailors seeking a balance between cruising comfort and sailing performance, particularly in warm-water destinations, the Cm 46 offers compelling modern catamaran design.
