About
The 2015 Catana 47 "Zoi" was originally purchased with nearly every possible upgrade and then sailed from France to the US where we sold the boat to her second owners in 2018.
The second owners spared no expense outfitting the boat to take them and their two young children around the world. They did a shake-down cruise to the Bahamas in 2019, returned to the US, did an additional $100k plus in upgrades to the boat in Florida and three months later the boat was dropped off its stands when it was getting a bottom job. The previous owners successfully fought the insurance company for the right to walk away from the vessel, and the insurance company then sold the vessel to the current owners who completed and documented all repairs..
From November of 2021 to March of 2022, the current owners worked to make the boat structurally sound and all systems working properly. In March of 2022, ABYC surveyors were hired to survey the boat. The boat was determined to be properly repaired and as structurally sound as the day she was built (survey available)
The boat was splashed on July 5, 2022 where work continued on additional systems that needed attention. In November of 2022, the rigging was inspected and deemed in good condition. (Survey available) On December 10th, 2022 the current owners set sail with her to the Bahamas and onward in their journey.
The current owners have now completed their journey's with "Zoi" and she is back available for the most discerning sailors looking for a carbon-infused performance catamaran.
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.
