Haven't been on that particular Cat, but I can speak to the Leopard 47. That's what we chartered our very first trip and we had a great time.

Only complaint we had with the 47 was the fabric bimini. Hard top is much better. I have seen a number of 47's that have been modified though, so if it has I'd see no reason not to use it.

I prefer the 46 having been on one a few times now, since it actually seems more spacious and has some nicer amenities and access to the berths but the 47 is still a great boat and likely a lot more cost effective.
