About
Β
WabiSabi is a third generation Atlantic 49 Mastfoil catamaran. The patented MastFoil rig has the advantage of being one of the easiest designs to sail. The MastFoils are rigid sails that combined with self tacking jibs provide similar sailing performance to a conventional sloop rig without the difficulty of hoisting, reefing, gybing and furling a mainsail. With the touch of a button boat speed can be immediately speeded up or reduced as conditions warrant. Trimming the MastFoils in this manner can often eliminate the need to adjust sail area by roller reefing futher simplifying sailing tasks.
In addition there is a bowsprit with a single line furler and a screacher that can be set or stowed easily.
The forward cockpit provides excellent visibility and superb safety. All sailing and anchoring functions are easily accomplished from a central station.Β
When conditions warrant, retreat to the inside pilot house where there is a completely protected helm station with excellent visibility.
WabiSabi is constructed of vacuum bagged Epoxy-Vinylester resin and high performance glass fibre cored with PVC foam. Carbon fibre is used in all the high load areas. The aft hardtop is carbon fibre over foam. The hull is faired and finished with Alexseal linear polyurethane. The bottom features fixed keels built from glass over solid foam and attached to a finished hull. The keels can support the weight of the boat during breaching and protect the propellers and rudders.
All forward and side windows in the deck house are tempered glass for lifetime scratch and UV resistance.
All windows in the deck house have custom made blinds to help protect from extreme heat.
WabiSabiΒ was built and equipped to the highest standard. She has sailed safely and comfortably from Patagonia to Maine. And has recorded at least one 24 hour run exceeding 260 nm. She is equipped ready to go anywhere in safety and comfort.

Collision Bulkheads
Each hull has a collision bulkhead forward.Β
In event of collision damage to the forward part of the hull water will not flood the hull past the collision bulkhead. In addition, in the event of capsize the collision bulkhead is designed to keep the hull forepeak dry allowing a safe habitation place for the crew. The hulls incorporate “escape hatches” on the inboard hull side adjacent to the collision bulkhead which allows easy access into the boat should capsize occur.

Andrew Hodgdon at The Multihull Company was instrumental in our recent boat purchase. Andrewβs experience with performance catamarans was a key reason why we were comfortable and his straightforward communication style was very much appreciated when so much is at stake. We had a very fast viewing to close timeline on the other side of the country and Andrew always took our calls and responded quickly even with time differences which mattered a lot. Weβre very happy with the outcome and Andrew played a crucial role.
I chose Zee (Zvonimir Kalinic) after posting an ad for a broker on Yacht Sales from about 15 other brokers because he showed professionalism and care right away compared to the others. Most of the brokers never intended to show people my boat but yet somehow expected to collect commission. Zee met me in Novigrad and spent 3 hours taking photos and drone footage and throughout the listing period was communicating continuously and advising me about any offers that came through. His service was at a high standard that I was extremely happy with and felt comfortable at all times especially since Iβm in Sydney and my boat is in Montenegro. I canβt recommend Zee highly enough to anyone looking to sell their boat with peace of mind.
The brokerage team has been amazing. They helped me find the right catamaran for our family of four, with enough space for extended family and friends to stay with us anytime. The broker really helped me narrow down what I needed. I started with a long list and eventually narrowed it down to something that was the right fit and price for me.
Successful relationships cannot exist without it. At The Multihull Company we base every relationship on a firm commitment to earning and retaining our clientβs trust.
Advice of any kind is valuable only when grounded in hard-won expertise. It too, must be trustworthy. Trust and expertise define the heart and soul of The Multihull Company.
