It isnt often that a boat likethis 2016 Neel 45 Panda Rosso comes on the market. The Neel 45 was based on an innovative performance sailing design that utilizing modern light-weight construction techniques and materials to create a whole new demographic in the cruising boat market. The result is a very high-quality multihull that offers spacious accommodations, modern amenities, and a fantastic layout all in one sleek package. With her versatile suit of sails and efficient hull design, she will out sail nearly all other cruising boats in her size range. Its not hard to see why the Neel 45 has garnered such a cult following since its initial introduction. Her ICW friendly rig height also ensures access to numerous anchorages that are not accessible to other cruising boats.
Some of the defining features of the Neel trimaran design are the 68 interior headroom, the large and easily accessible tech space / engine room, and the deck level cabins. The sail controls are led to the bulkhead mounted helm next to the cockpit. This position offers fantastic visibility and good protection without cutting the skipper off from socializing with the rest of the crew lounging in the cockpit.
Panda Rosso is fully equipped for liveaboard cruising. Several highlights include:
Full suite of B&G Navigation Electronic
ReLion Lithium House Battery Bank 400ah
600 watts of Solar

Panda Rosso is US Duty Paid and available for showings by appointment in beautiful St Augustine, FL.
I chose Zee (Zvonimir Kalinic) after posting an ad for a broker on Yacht Sales from about 15 other brokers because he showed professionalism and care right away compared to the others. Most of the brokers never intended to show people my boat but yet somehow expected to collect commission. Zee met me in Novigrad and spent 3 hours taking photos and drone footage and throughout the listing period was communicating continuously and advising me about any offers that came through. His service was at a high standard that I was extremely happy with and felt comfortable at all times especially since I’m in Sydney and my boat is in Montenegro. I can’t recommend Zee highly enough to anyone looking to sell their boat with peace of mind.
The brokerage team has been amazing. They helped me find the right catamaran for our family of four, with enough space for extended family and friends to stay with us anytime. The broker really helped me narrow down what I needed. I started with a long list and eventually narrowed it down to something that was the right fit and price for me.
I cannot speak too highly of Andrew Hodgdon and his colleagues at the Multihull Company.
The process of selling my boat was very smooth and well managed and with excellent communication – especially important as I was unable to be nearby during the sale process. Andrew’s deep knowledge of the market and my boat was very reassuring. We spoke regularly and he kept me closely advised all the way through to a happy sale. I found him a good guy, very helpful, willing to share and bounce ideas around, and I enjoyed working with him. Highly recommended!
Andrew Hodgdon and The Multihull Company are really professional! I just closed a deal with them, and everything was pretty smooth. Andrew was punctual, showed a lot of expertise, and he was honest about all the problems with the boat. He is also giving me the support I need to run all the projects on this boat. This whole process was much better than I was expecting, and I recommend this team! Thank you, Andrew.
