The Multihull Company takes great pleasure in celebrating the remarkable achievement of Senior Broker Alexis de Boucaud, who distinguished himself as the victor in the fiercely contested 10-boat Diam 24 division at the esteemed 6th Edition of the Caribbean Multihull Challenge, held in picturesque St. Maarten. This noteworthy triumph underscores not only Alexis’ exceptional sailing prowess but also his dedication to the sport and unwavering commitment to the island of St. Maarten.
Teamed up with esteemed racing sailors Benoit Champanhac and Ivan Skobtsov, Alexis navigated the waters with precision and finesse, exhibiting a masterful display of skill and strategic acumen. Their collective efforts culminated in a near-perfect performance, earning Alexis a well-deserved special recognition from fellow competitors and sailing enthusiasts alike.


The Multihull Company extends its heartfelt congratulations to Alexis and his esteemed teammates for their outstanding achievement. Their victory not only reflects the company’s commitment to excellence but also serves as a testament to the caliber of talent and expertise within its ranks. As we eagerly anticipate Alexis’ return to defend his title in the upcoming year, we remain steadfast in our support and admiration for his continued success on the water and the success of the island of St. Maarten.

It is often said that you need to practice what you preach.
In that spirit, The Multihull Company packed its bags full of 9 Brokers, 4 Wives, and 6 children and traveled to St. Maarten to participate in the 6th Annual Caribbean Multihull Challenge onboard a Nautitech 40 catamaran, while taking breaks at the company retreat in a villa in Pelican Key overlooking the Rally to watch Alexis during the dayโs races.
While the HH-66 Nemo was the undisputed winner of the 9-boat CSA 1 class, The Multihull Company took pride in their continued participation and sponsorship of the event, underscoring their unwavering support for the vibrant island of St. Maarten.
Tremendous experiences were shared, many memories were made and TMC families were able to take the rare opportunity to take a step back and enjoy the brief moment of the dreams that we so often watch our tremendous clients achieve.
Cheers!
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 peopleโclients 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 didnโt 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 couldnโt recommend Andrew Hodgdon more highly. If youโre looking for a yacht brokerโespecially if youโre considering a performance catamaranโwe 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. ๐
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.
