About
Silver Girl is the catamaran that got it all started at Balance Catamarans in 2010. She was the first of the new 60 footers designed for expeditionarysurfing charters in Indonesia. She was designed to be fast, carry high underwing clearance, and have enormous range under power, requiring significant fuel storage capacity.
After her launch, she ended up heading to the Caribbean, not Indonesia as initially envisioned, and after a few years was sold to an East Coast couple who bought her to successfully sail around the world in the World ARC. After completing that life-long dream they sold her.
Silver Girl is an all epoxy, carbon fiber reinforced, foam core performance cat. She is, of all things, however, a Balanced cat. She is designed to be easy to operate, to care for, and offers a superb Balance of performance, payload capacity and space. We recently launchedthe last of the Balance 601's this past year, to be replacedby the new Balance 620.
It would take hours to explain and go over all of the upgrades and equipment she carries. Suffice it to say that if you go over her full specs listing you will see that she is extensively equipped for global voyaging and off-the-grid living. She has been constantly upgraded and cared for and whenever something was worn out or needed her owners have always gone ahead and done it. Our careful listing notes these upgrades and refits.
Silver Girl is currently in the U.S. Virgin Islands, but will likely be sailing state-side in the near future. To organize a showing please contact us in advance for careful planning as she may move at any time. Here is a very special Adventure Cat for the discriminating sailor who wants to go places safely and swiftly, a proven thoroughbred performance voyager.
Your team delivered on every mark. You’ve got an amazing broker in Mark Wattrus and I’m confident you will have continued success moving forward together. He was available 24/7 whenever I had questions. We had a great initial visit on the boat and his marketing plan and photos were superb
I bought a yacht that I had never seen. I did this because I trusted my broker Andrew Holland. It was not an easy job for Andrew, as I am an experienced boat builder and owner of previous yachts, but work in West Africa. Imagine how hard it was to communicate what I was looking for. Andrew came up with exactly what I wanted. He dealt with time delays, all my questions at odd hours, and was there for the survey. He reported honestly and professionally. After buying the yacht, I arrived at the boat on a Sunday night, after dark, after travelling from West Africa to the Caribbean, and found it was better than expected. He never pulled punches and made me aware of shortfalls. I expected to spend my one month leave working on the boat, but actually spent less than one week, and was able to spend 3 weeks sailing – wonderful bonus.
Thank you Andrew for putting up with all my questions, all my worries and all my crazy out of the time zone concerns – you were totally professional, but also I know that if and when we meet up, it will be like a friend finally meeting. You are always welcome on Aseka.
Outstanding company with professional subject matter experts. If I were to buy or sell cruising sailboat, particularly a catamaran, Andrew would be my go to broker.
I have been sailing since I was a child and attended Massachusetts Maritime Academy. But when my wife and I began the process of purchasing an ocean cruising/racing catamaran, I realized that this is a world unto itself. Obviously, we needed to find someone knowledgeable to help us make an informed decision. More importantly, we needed someone honest and willing to put our interests before his or her own. I was lucky to work with Phil Berman at The Multihull Company. He repeatedly shunned the fast buck, choosing instead to work the long road to connect us with the “perfect boat”. I would be glad to recommend Phil and his company to anyone planning to purchase or sell a performance sailing machine.
Andrew Hodgdon was our broker when we bought our 2018 Lagoon 450F in Antigua in April 2922. He provided great service and was very attentive to our needs. We would highly recommend Andrew and the Multihull Company.
