Broker’s Remarks
Migaloo II combines the comfort and styling of Fountaine Pajot’s latest designs with genuine self-sufficiency and reliability. Her proven Victron/Onan hybrid energy system delivers quiet, dependable off-grid operation without the complexity of newer 48 V platforms. Every upgrade has been chosen with long-term cruising in mind — from solar and lithium power to UV-filtered freshwater, robust anchoring gear, and thoughtful interior refinements.
Meticulously maintained and continually improved, she represents an exceptional opportunity for a couple or family seeking a turnkey Astrea 42 in outstanding condition. Lying in Preveza, Greece, fully equipped and export-ready.

Owner’s Reflections
Migaloo II has been a wonderful yacht for our group of friends — comfortable, capable, and well thought out. We’ve equipped her for independent cruising, not just weekend sailing, and she’s proven herself in every way.
From the quiet confidence of lithium and solar power to the comfort of full air conditioning and shaded spaces at anchor, she’s allowed us to enjoy the Mediterranean exactly as we’d hoped — in comfort, style, and safety.
Her upgrades and small touches make life aboard easy: from 100 m of chain and mooring reels to extensive sunshades, cockpit cushions, spice racks, and curved furniture details. Everything has been chosen with care.
As part of our ownership agreement, Migaloo II has also benefited from consistent end-of-season maintenance — every system is checked, and any issue resolved immediately. She’s been our perfect base in the Ionian, and we hope her next owners enjoy her as much as we have.

HISTORY
Built in 2023 and delivered to her current private owners in La Rochelle, Migaloo II has been maintained to an exceptional standard and has never been chartered. She was the proud winner of the 2025 Fountaine Pajot Owners’ Rendezvous and has benefited from continuous upgrades since launch, including lithium batteries, a comprehensive safety inventory, and an impressive suite of cruising equipment.
The yacht is owned by a small syndicate of like-minded individuals who were closely involved in the build process and have maintained her with a generous budget and high attention to detail. Their thoughtful ownership is immediately evident upon stepping aboard, with every aspect of the yacht reflecting careful care and investment.

I cannot speak too highly of Andrew Hodgdon and his colleagues at the Multihull Company.
The process of selling my boat was very smooth and well managed and with excellent communication – especially important as I was unable to be nearby during the sale process. Andrew’s deep knowledge of the market and my boat was very reassuring. We spoke regularly and he kept me closely advised all the way through to a happy sale. I found him a good guy, very helpful, willing to share and bounce ideas around, and I enjoyed working with him. Highly recommended!
Andrew Hodgdon and The Multihull Company are really professional! I just closed a deal with them, and everything was pretty smooth. Andrew was punctual, showed a lot of expertise, and he was honest about all the problems with the boat. He is also giving me the support I need to run all the projects on this boat. This whole process was much better than I was expecting, and I recommend this team! Thank you, Andrew.
The multihull company, specifically Andrew Hodgson worked with me in the sale of Gods Grace, a 50’ Voyage 500. They made sure that as many people as possible touched it, laid hands on it, ultimately resulting in a offer and sale and was extremely helpful in the prep and sale process as I did not live locally… If you want to make sure that people actually see your vessel, will be honest and truly assist you in the sale, Andrew is the man for the job.
Andrew Hodgdon always goes above and beyond. After several transactions I wouldn’t work with anyone else in the industry.
Andrew at the Multihull Company was our buyer’s broker and he was excellent to work with. He thoroughly explained the purchase process, and helped with many questions along the way. We would definitely use Andrew and Multihull again to buy and sell catamarans and yachts.
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.
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.
