Custom 55 Power Catamaran Sting Ray II.
Proven, Passenger-Ready, and Built for the Open Sea
Solid Fiberglass Hull | Nida Core Construction | Licensed for Short International Crossings | 110-Passenger Capacity
Presenting the Sting Ray II, a rare opportunity to own a professionally designed, custom-built 55-foot fiberglass power catamaran optimized for commercial operation. Designed with safety, durability, and versatility in mind, this twin-hull vessel is a top performer in coastal and near-offshore service roles, from whale watching and scuba diving excursions to inter-island passenger ferry routes and private charters.
Built in 1988 and meticulously maintained throughout her service life, Sting Ray II was constructed using a solid fiberglass hull and Nida Core composite materials throughout the superstructure, with no wood used anywhere onboard, eliminating concerns about rot, water absorption, or long-term structural degradation.
At 55 feet in length, her wide beam and stable platform make her ideally suited for large-group tours, marine exploration, and short international crossings, such as those frequently made between Caribbean islands or similar regional transport routes.

Proven Hull Design
Inspired by Racing, Built for Comfort.
The Sting Ray II stands apart from typical commercial catamarans thanks to its Cigarette-style hull mold origin a design DNA inherited from one of the most successful offshore powerboat builders in the world. This unique hull form gives Sting Ray II a number of distinct advantages:
Efficient hydrodynamics, minimizing drag while maintaining a smooth, wave-cutting ride
Improved stability at speed and at rest, thanks to the wide catamaran beam
Reduced fuel consumption compared to similarly sized monohulls
Smooth handling in both coastal chop and longer offshore swells
Wide deck footprint with ample space for passengers, equipment, or service areas
The result is a vessel that is not only faster and more stable but also more comfortable for passengers, especially important for day cruises, diving tours, or long inter-island routes.
Construction is of Composite Quality, Built to Last
Unlike many commercial boats of her age, Sting Ray II features a solid fiberglass hull paired with Nida Core composite material throughout the rest of the structure. This gives her a critical advantage in terms of long-term maintenance, operating cost, and safety.

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.
