Preliminary listing! Check back soon for additional pics, specs and walkthrough videos!
If you've been looking for a catamaran that is actually built to sail well and sail fast, then you've found it here. Cahuna is a semi-custom 1280S from the Schionning design group. She was built in South Africa and was sailed under her own bottom to the States! She is equipped to be singlehanded and was built with the twin Yammer diesel option and twin helm wheels. Both main and jib controls are led to the cockpit for easy control and she's rigged for an assy spinnaker with a carbon bowsprit. Twin dagger boards give her a true upwind pointing ability (unless most cruising cats) and, with the boards up, she can pull up to the sandbar of your choice! She was built to be super-light, so the interior is rather sparse and utilitarian but she has all the basic amenities for distance cruising or racing. Check out the walkthrough video and specific design information is available at schionningdesign.com/arrow-1280-catamaran-sdi/.

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.
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.
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.
