This can be your Escape Vehicle. She is an escape from the high cost of living, from mortgage payments, from offices and commutes, and from a bound and tethered life. She is Outbound and you can be too. Outbound is an escape to just about anywhere you choose to sail her and she is a special boat.
Most trimarans of her era were home-built and have deteriorated with age due to substandard skill, cheap materials, or negligent care. Not Outbound. She is a rare professionally built Piver AA48. She has been recently refit, and is in active use. Her hulls are cold molded marine plywood fiberglass using the more costly and durableepoxy resin (not polyester or vinylester).
Her current owner has done all of the work and upgrades needed to put her in cruising order. She has all new wiring, plumbing, brand new Furuno electronics, and fresh rigging. She has a ketch rig and extensive suit of sails for ease of handling and versatility. She has spacious, sheltered, and comfortable accommodations. Outbound is an Arthur Piver design extended to 50'. She has had a foam core daggerboard added for high pointing ability and efficiency off the wind. She is fitted with an efficient and easy-to-maintain Perkins 4-108 diesel engine. Her keelson is reinforced for beaching and her hulls are a stout 1.5" thick below the waterline.
Outbound is ready to be your home in the Portland metropolitan area or anywhere in the world you may point her. After many years of refit and care, her owners have had a change of plans. This makes Outbound the best type of Escape Vehicle. . . an affordable multihull where someone else has done all of the work and you can enjoy all of the joy, experiences, and pleasure she will bring.

Your team delivered on every mark. Youβve got an amazing broker in Mark Wattrus and Iβm 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 β 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 β 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 βperfect boatβ. 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.
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.
