2019 SILENT 55 | Solar-Electric Luxury Catamaran
“Fair Dinkum”
This 2019 SILENT 55 represents a rare opportunity to own one of the world’s most innovative solar-electric catamarans—further distinguished by an extraordinary refit and modernization program exceeding $1,000,000.
Rather than simply maintaining the vessel, her owners undertook an extensive transformation with the goal of creating what is arguably one of the finest SILENT 55s available today. Virtually every aspect of the yacht has been thoughtfully upgraded, from the electrical infrastructure and onboard systems to the interior finishes, furnishings, navigation electronics, and owner amenities.
The result is a yacht that blends the revolutionary efficiency of silent electric propulsion with the comfort, reliability, and luxury expected aboard a premium cruising catamaran. Converted to U.S. 110-volt standards, equipped with upgraded Dometic climate control, Starlink connectivity, premium navigation electronics, beautifully redesigned living spaces, and numerous custom enhancements, she is exceptionally well-suited for extended cruising throughout the Bahamas, Caribbean, and beyond.
Offering whisper-quiet operation, remarkable energy independence, and operating costs that are a fraction of those associated with conventional power yachts, this SILENT 55 is as practical as she is impressive. Her desirable four-stateroom, four-head layout provides exceptional privacy and comfort for owners and guests, making her equally suited for extended family cruising or entertaining aboard. For the discerning buyer seeking sustainable luxury without compromise, this turnkey vessel stands in a class of its own.

We had an outstanding experience working with Andrew Hodgdon to find our dream boat, an Outremer 52.
We were actually referred to him by several different people—clients who had been very happy working with him, as well as boat owners who were planning to use him to sell their own boats. After working with Andrew ourselves, we completely understand why he came so highly recommended.
We worked with him for several months, and from start to finish, he was exceptional. Andrew is incredibly knowledgeable and truly an expert when it comes to performance catamarans. He took the time to understand exactly what we were looking for, was always responsive and organized, and never made us feel pressured throughout the process.
Andrew went above and beyond to arrange showings for us in multiple states and even traveled to another state to be there with us for the sea trial. His expertise and guidance gave us tremendous confidence as we evaluated such a significant purchase.
The entire process could have been overwhelming, but he made it remarkably smooth. He was on top of every detail and made the paperwork and closing process easy, working seamlessly with his team at The Multihull Company.
What impressed us most was that he genuinely had our best interests in mind. And his support didn’t end when the sale was completed. He has continued to stay in touch and has made it clear that he is still available to help us if we ever need him. That kind of follow-through is rare and speaks volumes about the kind of broker he is.
Buying an Outremer 52 was a huge decision and a major investment, and having someone with his knowledge, experience, responsiveness, and integrity made the entire experience so much easier and more enjoyable.
We couldn’t recommend Andrew Hodgdon more highly. If you’re looking for a yacht broker—especially if you’re considering a performance catamaran—we would choose him again without hesitation. The fact that so many people recommended him to us was the reason we called him, and after working with him, we would be one of those people recommending him to others.
I highly recommend Andrew Hodgdon. He served as our buyers broker. He is responsive, highly knowledgeable and very experienced. He is also an excellent guide and counselor before, during and after the boat purchase process. If you are looking for a good-sailing cat, he seems to collect most of the available boats on the better-sailing side of the market. Top marks.
Andrew did an excellent job getting me started on my new adventures. Worked with my conflicting schedule. Is very knowledgeable in the catamaran industry. 😎
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.

More About MultihullAnswer a few quick questions for your number. Every answer is saved to your Buyer Profile, so every boat on the site is priced for you.
A TMC buyer's broker will send line-by-line costs, what to check at survey, and how this boat compares with others that fit your plan.
Broad estimate by TMC based on the listing's published equipment, typical installed costs for this size of boat, and yard rates in the selected region. Not a survey, a quote or the listing broker's representation, and not a substitute for a professional marine survey. Verify all equipment and condition through a survey before you buy. Delivery, freight and financing figures are estimates; your broker confirms them.
