About
This is the evolution of a classic and one of the smartest boats you can buy. Ian Farrier took a second look at his hall of fame F-27 and evolved it into the F-28. He added larger amas for more stability and better sail carrying capability. He changed the stick to a rotating wing mast for cleaner airflow, faster upwind sailing, and deeper downwind angles. He added retractable bowsprit to carry a large screecher or asymmetrical spinnaker. Farrier relocated the outboard to allow it to turn with the rudder for better low speed maneuverability and easier docking. And this is the popular center cockpit version in which Ian Farrier created an interior with a private aft cabin, large forward cabin, central dinette, galley, and fully enclosed marine head.
Why is this one of the smartest boats you can buy? Because it can sail at windspeed, relocate at highway speed, and moor in 18" of water (or on its trailer in your backyard). It benefits from very sophisticated engineering by one of the best minds in multihulls. You can cruise it. You can race it. You can single-hand it. You can enjoy it with a crew of friends or a young family. You can sail the Pacific Northwest one week and the Channel Islands the next. You can range far and wide with an F-28. I once sold a Corsair for a fellow who had enjoyed sailing the Inside Passage, the Sea of Cortez, the Great Lakes, the Lakes of Texas, the Gulf Coast and just about everywhere in between on his Corsair. He was 87 years old when he was done! I had another client take one from the Great Lakes half way through the Northwest Passage - single-handed. These are incredibly versatile, incredibly well-engineered machines. This F-28 Center Cockpit has been well upgraded, has a new main sail, fresh running rigging, a nearly new trailer, a recent outboard, and it is ready to take you on your own adventures. Call or email Matthew to set a viewing. She is priced to sell and won't last.
Dear Cynthia and Andrew,
I wanted to extend my sincere thanks to both of you and The Multihull Company team for the outstanding job you did in successfully closing the sale of our Excess 14. Despite the challenging environment — including new import tariffs and unique buyer requirements — you navigated everything with professionalism, perseverance, and efficiency.
The transaction was completed smoothly and in good time, which is a true credit to your dedication and expertise. Very well done.
Thank you again, and I wish you all the very best.
Warm regards,
Jurgen
We had an outstanding experience working with Andrew Hodgdon. From the very beginning, he demonstrated deep knowledge of the catamaran we were considering and took the time to understand exactly what we were looking for. He found us the perfect vessel that matched our needs and budget and negotiated a fantastic deal on our behalf.
What truly set him apart was he responsiveness—every question we had was answered promptly and thoroughly, and he guided us through the entire process with professionalism and care. We couldn’t be happier with the service and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a knowledgeable and dedicated yacht broker.
Awesome company that worked as my brokerage on purchasing out FP catamaran. A special shoutout to Will Miller for walking us through the process
The process of selling our boat was made very smooth by the Multihull Company and Andrew Hodgdon in particular. Andrew helped us navigate the selling process including moving our boat from Grenada to Florida to execute the sale. We would recommend working with this company, and Andrew Hodgdon in particular, without hesitation.
Very smooth process. Chuck was great and very knowledgeable about the whole process. Im happy to have had TMC to take care of all the things i didnt know about.
