About

NEW ARRIVAL!!


Admiral 40 Executive Catamaran

The Admiral 40 is a thoughtfully designed bluewater cruising catamaran that combines offshore capability, exceptional interior volume, and comfortable liveaboard accommodations. Designed by renowned naval architect Angelo Lavranos, the Admiral 40 evolved from the successful Admiral 38, offering wider hulls, increased headroom, improved visibility, and a spacious deck layout while maintaining the sailing performance for which Admiral catamarans are known. 

Its generous 24-foot beam provides outstanding stability both underway and at anchor, making it an excellent choice for extended cruising, island hopping, or full-time liveaboard life. The large cockpit flows seamlessly into a bright, open salon with panoramic views, while the "galley-up" configuration allows the cook to remain part of the conversation inside and out. Depending on the layout, the Admiral 40 offers either a luxurious owner's version or a four-cabin arrangement suitable for family cruising or charter use. 

Under sail, the Admiral 40 features a modern fractional sloop rig with a large mainsail and easily managed headsail, providing balanced performance and straightforward sail handling. Twin diesel engines deliver excellent maneuverability in tight marinas and dependable performance under power, while the shallow fixed keels allow access to cruising grounds that are off limits to many deeper-draft monohulls. 

Built with solid fiberglass construction and balsa-cored composite structures where appropriate, the Admiral 40 is recognized for its robust construction, practical engineering, and quality craftsmanship. Many examples are exceptionally well equipped with features such as air conditioning, generator, watermaker, autopilot, radar, chartplotter, and extensive cruising systems, making them ready for serious passagemaking from the day they leave the dock. 

Whether your plans include coastal cruising, Caribbean adventures, or full-time life afloat, the Admiral 40 delivers the space, comfort, efficiency, and confidence that have made it a respected choice among cruising catamaran enthusiasts.

We take pride in our happy customers

I recently sold my Lagoon 450 with the Multihull Team. I would highly recommend their services. The professionalism and personal treatment I received was greatly appreciated.

— Derek Schroeder

Great Service, Great People
Helped me through the process.
I would go through them again in a future purchase.

— David Anderson

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!

— Jeffrey Bredeson

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.

— Richard Chandler

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.

— Jason Nunn
