Accommodations
The PDQ 41 offers the most spacious owner’s suite of any 41-footer on the market. The queen berth—complete with lift-up storage beneath—is on the same level as the salon, providing panoramic water views and easy access.
Descending into the starboard hull, you’ll find a beautifully appointed dressing area with two hanging lockers, four large drawers, and abundant cabinetry. Forward lies the owner’s head, featuring a Jabsco Quiet Flush toilet, freshwater system, and a generously sized stall shower comfortable for two. The suite enjoys its own dedicated air-conditioning unit and excellent ventilation through two hatches, three opening ports, a Hella fan, and two aft-opening windows.
Guest accommodations occupy the port hull, offering a cozy double berth with an opening hatch, portlight, and fan for comfort. Forward of the galley is the guest head, equipped with a shower, sink, and another Jabsco Quiet Flush toilet.
For additional guests, the salon table converts into a double berth with provided cushions—making the PDQ 41 ideal for family or friends aboard.
Galley
The galley aboard the PDQ 41 is thoughtfully situated in the port hull, just two steps down from the salon. Its open design keeps the chef connected to the conversation and activity above, creating a seamless flow between cooking and entertaining. With generous counter space, abundant storage, and two large forward pantries, this galley easily satisfies even the most discerning onboard cook.
Because it opens directly to the salon, the space feels bright, social, and inviting—perfect for extended cruising or entertaining guests. Magic also boasts a fully equipped outdoor galley on the flybridge, complete with a refrigerator, freezer, stainless sink, and propane grill—ideal for alfresco dining with a view.
The Galley features the following :

Flybridge
The expansive flybridge aboard Magic is a showcase of smart design and comfort, accessed easily by a staircase rather than a ladder. Twin helm chairs, a wraparound settee for six, and a dining table create an ideal space for socializing and relaxing underway or at anchor. An outdoor galley—complete with stainless sink, BBQ grill, freezer, and refrigerator—further enhances the entertainment experience. Ample storage keeps the space uncluttered, and visibility from the helm is excellent for both navigation and docking.
A generous open deck area aft provides the perfect spot for lounging in the sun. Magic features a full flybridge bimini (new in 2022) with matching cover, as well as a folding arch and bimini that reduce bridge clearance to just 15 feet. Additional touches include a Sunbrella helm cover, full side panels for complete weather protection, and a newly added cockpit bimini (2024) with a Textilene drop-down sunscreen—combining function, comfort, and style in every detail.
Deck and Exterior
The PDQ 41 has five opening gates that allows for easy access from any point on the vessel. In addition, access by way of the transom steps makes boarding easy regardless of dock height. Forward there are three major storage areas including a standing headroom generator compartment. The yacht is equipped with twin Quick 1000 electric windlasses, 200′ of 5/16 HS chain and a 33kg Rocna type anchor and is also equipped with a second anchor and ground tackle.
The cockpit is an open area, designed for maximum functionality. Engine access is from the cockpit and there are several large deep storage areas accessible . The vessel is equipped with Edison dinghy davits and an electric capstan winch is installed to make dinghy retrieval a “breeze”. The house battery bank is located under the first step to the flybridge for easy access and maintenance. Direct water and dinghy access is facilitated by the steps built into the port and starboard transoms. A swim ladder and a hot/cold fresh water shower are located on the port transom.
Magic is also equipped with a AB 9’6″ RIB dinghy (2017) and
5 hp four cycle Honda OB (2022, commissioned 2024). She also comes with the following additional items:
Overall design
PDQ has developed a reputation for having the most advanced technical design capability in the catamaran industry. This was proven with the incredible efficiency and seaworthiness of the 34. In the design of the 41′, they were able to “scale up” the proven 34 hull design with minor modifications and it has now proven to be as efficient as the 34. With a larger footprint, higher bridgedeck clearance and more displacement, the designers were able to deliver a smoother-riding and quieter yacht that can handle much larger seas comfortably. It is not uncommon to run the 41′ in 5′ seas at 18 knts comfortably.
Owners that enjoy performing maintainance tasks will appreciate the care that has been taken to locate all components in very accessable locations. Owners also appreciate that the hull is laid up with solid fiberglass below the waterline. Closed cell foam coring is only used above the waterline. This translates to a more durable boat, one that can be intentionally beached or anchored somewhere that dries out. Lastly, the running gear is protected by a skeg so running the boat aground will not likely cause any damage. Bottom line…the 41 is a good offshore design that will not let you down when the going gets tough but also incorporates many features that make it a great long-term live-aboard yacht.

The brokerage team has been amazing. They helped me find the right catamaran for our family of four, with enough space for extended family and friends to stay with us anytime. The broker really helped me narrow down what I needed. I started with a long list and eventually narrowed it down to something that was the right fit and price for me.
I cannot speak too highly of Andrew Hodgdon and his colleagues at the Multihull Company.
The process of selling my boat was very smooth and well managed and with excellent communication – especially important as I was unable to be nearby during the sale process. Andrew’s deep knowledge of the market and my boat was very reassuring. We spoke regularly and he kept me closely advised all the way through to a happy sale. I found him a good guy, very helpful, willing to share and bounce ideas around, and I enjoyed working with him. Highly recommended!
Andrew Hodgdon and The Multihull Company are really professional! I just closed a deal with them, and everything was pretty smooth. Andrew was punctual, showed a lot of expertise, and he was honest about all the problems with the boat. He is also giving me the support I need to run all the projects on this boat. This whole process was much better than I was expecting, and I recommend this team! Thank you, Andrew.
The multihull company, specifically Andrew Hodgson worked with me in the sale of Gods Grace, a 50’ Voyage 500. They made sure that as many people as possible touched it, laid hands on it, ultimately resulting in a offer and sale and was extremely helpful in the prep and sale process as I did not live locally… If you want to make sure that people actually see your vessel, will be honest and truly assist you in the sale, Andrew is the man for the job.
