About
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.
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.
WabiSabi 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

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.
Absolutely THE ONLY company to use for buying or selling a catamaran! Our Broker Andrew Hodgdon, was excellent to work with, an experienced catamaran captain with extensive knowledge of sailing catamarans, the ins and outs of the construction, performance, systems, everything involved and life on board catamarans. All of which is invaluable in looking for the right boat for someone to buy or helping market your boat when selling. The Multihull Company is so connected in the catamaran world and used by so many catamaran sailors and searchers that we had an interested buyer before our boat was even listed and a completed sale 60 days after her first showing!!! Thanks Andrew and all of the Multihull team who worked diligently to make it happen so smoothly!
We had a great experience working with Andrew! He was extremely knowledgeable and listened to our needs of what we wanted our next boat to be. He responded quickly to all of our requests and got us to the finish line. Working with Multihull was seamless and we highly recommend using Andrew and Multihull.
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.
