NADI | 2010 Knysna 480

Riviera Beach, FL, US

About

NADI is a proven blue water circumnavigating catamaran. Angelo Lavranos designed this 48 ft Knysna to give the owners confidence to go anywhere they would like to go in comfort and speed. This design, with the high bows, long waterline and ample bridge deck clearance makes for great sailing in almost all conditions.

The bright interior, large staterooms and heads, make life very comfortable.

Owner statement:

We bought the boat for the comfort and build quality of the Knysna brand. After an extensive refit we set sail through the Bahamas the Exuma chain just my wife and me. The boat sails wonderfully in 15-20 knots of wind sailing at 7-9 knots even in heavier weather.


We spent 6 months in the Bahamas making great friends all through the Exuma chain. Then we sailed north Jamaica making our way down to Panama. The sail was wonderful with 20-30 knots of wind. We were reefed the whole time, still making 7.5 knots average. with 8-12ft swell on the beam the boat still felt safe and comfortable.
From Pamana we sailed to Saint Andres and Providencia. We spent several months there enjoying the water and Colombian culture. From Providencia we sailed to the Cayman Islands averaging over 180 miles a day. Then from Caymanwe sailed back to Florida and found out we were going to have a baby.
The boat is built super well and strong and I don't have anything bad to say about the design and construction of the boat. After 4 years of living on board it was a very pleasant home.

    We take pride in our happy customers

    Chuck at The Multihull Company is the real deal.
    He helped us find our Lagoon 40 after genuinely listening to what we needed, not just what he had to sell. He let us visit the boat multiple times, answered every question honestly, and helped us make a confident decision on a major purchase.
    What impressed us most was the post-sale support. Once the paperwork was signed, Chuck was still picking up the phone, offering referrals, and helping us work through the early stages of liveaboard life. That kind of follow-through is rare.
    If you are looking for a multihull and want someone who knows the boats and actually cares about the outcome, Chuck is the person to call.

    We just purchased a 2025 Nautitech 44 Open with The Multihull Company. The process of getting here has been great, and we could not have asked for a better agent. We worked with Conor, whom we met at the 2025 Cannes Boat Show. We started our search for a cruising catamaran in Florida at the beginning of the year. We spent a couple of months looking at different boats/models within our price range and quickly narrowed it down to what really mattered to us, in part thanks to the wealth of knowledge and expertise our broker provided. When we found a perfect match in Montenegro, Conor and The Multihull Company did not hesitate to continue supporting us and to lead the efforts from start to finish with great care and transparency. Communication and support have been outstanding throughout this entire process. Conor, in particular, showed great compassion and care, going above and beyond to ensure that no stone was left unturned and that we would be able to safely and happily sail off into our big adventure.

    A sale well handled. No inflated expectations and an honest opinion throughout. Highly recommended.

    — Nicholas Laing

    Absolutely THE ONLY company to use for buying or selling a catamaran! Our Broker Andrew Hodgdon, was excellent to work with, an experienced catamaran captain with extensive knowledge of sailing catamarans, the ins and outs of the construction, performance, systems, everything involved and life on board catamarans. All of which is invaluable in looking for the right boat for someone to buy or helping market your boat when selling. The Multihull Company is so connected in the catamaran world and used by so many catamaran sailors and searchers that we had an interested buyer before our boat was even listed and a completed sale 60 days after her first showing!!! Thanks Andrew and all of the Multihull team who worked diligently to make it happen so smoothly!

    — Linda W.

    We had a great experience working with Andrew! He was extremely knowledgeable and listened to our needs of what we wanted our next boat to be. He responded quickly to all of our requests and got us to the finish line. Working with Multihull was seamless and we highly recommend using Andrew and Multihull.
