About
The Manta 42 is a world class catamaran made in the USA. They were built in Florida from the 1990's into the early 2000's. Thoughtfully designed, engineered and built to withstand just about anything mother nature can dig out. Many Manta's have crossed the Atlantic and circled the globe. They are designed to be run by a cruising couple but can also be easily single-handed. All rigging lines/ sheets are run back to the helm and its electric winch.
Down below there is plenty of natural light, headroom and storage. The main salon is spacious and well laid out with a large galley and seating area. This owner's version has a large master stateroom with head and two additional cabins with a shared head. This catamaran was the featured boat at the Annapolis Boat Show in 2000 and also won boat of the year. She still has the same owners. Recent additions include Mack Pack main installed 2017, Garmin electronics package 2022, new custom mattress owners berth 2022, and new hot water heater 2024. Twin Volvo Penta engines have 2000 hours. Much recent mechanical work this year ensures the next owner has even more reliable power plants. Boat was stored indoors from 2000-2010 and annually shrink wrapped since. She has been to the Bahamas and Florida but is a New England boat primarily. Overall a very nice boat that presents very well and shows years of good care, maintenance and upgrades. Recent price reduction- owner wants sold!

Great Service, Great People
Helped me through the process.
I would go through them again in a future purchase.
The Multihull Company made the process of buying our boat easy and predictable. Both our agent (Francisco Montaner) and Andrew Holland communicated well and educated/informed us of each step in the process. I highly recommend The Multihull Company for those shopping for a catamaran!
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.
Successful relationships cannot exist without it. At The Multihull Company we base every relationship on a firm commitment to earning and retaining our client’s trust.
