Historical wise, I know Multihull Company for some time now. I sold my previous cat, a Catana 471 through the company. Years later, I was searching a catamaran again. I looked around, and among other companies came back to the Multihull Company. I got back in contact with Alexis. It was the start of several visits of boats (I believe 3 in the States). My contacts with Alexis were always great. I guess the fact that he loves boats, we are of the same age and could speak French together ? helped. But truly I like the guy as he was honest. if a boat was a bad buy, because for example it was not well maintained, he would tell me. In some cases he had to calm me down or on the contrary to shake me up. He always did that in a friendly but firm way, which I appreciate. If I would look for a another boat, he would be the first person I would contact. I bought the Catana 581 through the Multihull Company, and later when I knew I would sell it, Alexis and the Multihull Company were my first and only choice!
I’ve also met Phil when I was looking to buy the 581. The contacts there nice as well. He helped my out quite well when I bought materials and needed a delivery address. So, all the contacts I had with the Multihull Company were very positive!
Was it stressful to sell my boat through ‘you’? The answer is definitively NO. It was good to have Alexis being the “buffer”, or I would have let the possible deal go… (and I do believe Alexis had a hard time with this sell, although he did his uttermost best to keep relatively calm).
Would I recommend Multihull Company to others ?”, the answer is YES. I sold 2 boats through TMC, visited at least 3 other ones and bought one, so I think I might have an idea of how this company works. I’ve personally met Alexis and Phil and had several e-mail contacts with Sales Manager, Andrew Holland, who took good care of the closing and financial process when the time came.
It’s been a few weeks now and the dust has settled. We had a great experience with the Multihull Company and in particular our broker, Caroline Laviolette. Caroline was happy to share her knowledge of the market and the catamarans we were interested in purchasing. She was patient and thorough as we looked at several boats in SE Florida, helped us narrow our search and eventually purchase a beautiful 2017 Lagoon 42. Many thanks to the team at The Multihull Company!
We had a great experience purchasing our boat with Will Miller as a buyers agent. Purchasing our first large Cat is a daunting experience and Will was able to walk us through the process with ease. Will was very straight forward and constantly gave us honest feedback as well as finding and pointing out details on all the boats that we may not have noticed or thought about.
We had a great experience and would use them again.
I would specifically recommend a buyers agent when purchasing to help weed through a lot of problems and misrepresented boats on the market.
We have had great experiences with the Multihull company. We both sold our old boat through them, and bought our new boat through them. I have to say that Will Miller is top-notch, and Riley was great as our broker for selling our O day 39. when you buy a Salt or Boat through them, I feel like you are not only clients, but you are friends. The lines of communication were always open and we were always informed of everything going on.
Riley, and the entire staff at The Multihull Company, were incredibly helpful and responsive in helping me find and purchase my catamaran. I was a first time purchaser and had many questions about the process and Riley was very responsive in answering those questions. I would recommend The Multihull Company to anyone in the market to purchase or sell their boat.
