With an amazing surge of interest and popularity, the modern powercat stands on the edge of the new Millennium as the hull shape and design of the future. Just as the 'Deep V' became the standard of yacht design nearly 20 years ago, the catamaran hull shape, and derivations thereof, combined with modern, hi-tech materials, are now leaving previous hull shapes behind. In terms of a cat's speed, comfort, safety, unsink-ability, beach-ability, range and economy, there is no monohull-design in the 
world that can compete with a quality cat.
.....
Imagine a luxury powercat of 73' that can run non-stop San Diego to Hawaii at nearly 30 knots, carrying no extra fuel? Or burning 2 . 3 GPH at 8-9 knots on one engine, giving you a cruise range of 17,000NM!? (Twin 'Cat 600hp engines)
......
Or  a Sportfish cat which has a top speed over 40 knots, yet can cruise up to 800 miles at at 16 knots!  Yes, these cats do exist, and these incredible yachts are represented at C M I.
.....
C M I is proud of it's 30 year-involvement with catamarans, and now have a reputation of representing only the finest  designs and builders worldwide. We are a power cat design and development leader, and we consult to builders and designers on design and development.
