Very solid in other words!

The aft cockpit follows more traditional lines than many newer designs. There is a raised helm to starboard and plenty of space aft, but you don’t get the open platform you will see on more modern designs. But she feels safe in a big following sea.
Step down into the saloon and you will find a big wraparound sofa (convertible into a large bed) around a dining table facing port. There is a big nav area with a nice chart table opposite on the port side. The galley is located Starboard side the salon. In the starboard hull are two a guest cabins. On the Owner’s set up, the forward port hull houses the master head with a wash basin, separate shower room and dressing area.
Sailing
Like most original Prouts, the 45 was set up with a cutter rig with the mast set well back for easy short-handed sailing and most of the lines running down the mast into the cockpit. With a smaller mainsail and a larger genoa, this makes her very easy to handle with a short handed crew or even on your own. I have seen some aero-rig set ups on the market.
With the mainsail, genoa (the main power provider) and staysail for upwind sailing, and a spinnaker (not included) you can fly off the bow for downwind sailing in lighter winds, she moves very competently and you should see some nice speeds off the wind. The main is generally fully battened (slab reefed). All the other major control lines are led back from the base of the mast (accessible from the cockpit) through a block of clam cleats to a single bulkhead mounted winch.
There are additional Genoa sheet winches mounted in the cockpit plus an additional Genoa furling line winch.
The running rigging has been designed so that everything can be done from the safety of the cockpit without having to venture out onto the deck.

Hull
The Prout 45 was designed for Offshore and Ocean Crossing adventured.
The hulls each incorporate long keels and skegs protecting Rudders and Propellers.
This hull design allows for the bat to be beached for service and protects running bear from floating debris.
Additionally the lower “bridge clearance” allows for additional storage and more headroom in the salon, making the 45′ Prout a great live aboard and an enjoyable offshore craft.

Your team delivered on every mark. You’ve got an amazing broker in Mark Wattrus and I’m 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 – 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 – 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 “perfect boat”. 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 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.
