About
Rattlesnake is a fabulous example of why Prout catamarans are legendary in the boating world and includes several upgrades for off-grid, full-time living aboard.
This Prout 45s is the perfect blend of seaworthiness, comfort, and ease of handling, making it an ideal choice for a full-time liveaboard and short-handed sailors looking for a proven bluewater cruiser. Designed by the renowned Prout family, this sturdy and well-balanced catamaran is built for long-range voyaging, whether youre setting off on an ocean crossing or enjoying a relaxed coastal cruise.
Rattlesnake is a 3-cabin owner's version layout, never chartered, fully equipped for off-grid, full-time liveaboard. Youll immediately notice the abundant space, the interior wood finishes, and easy access to many great amenities when you first step aboard. The interior is paneled with wood throughout, and the flooring has half-inch high-density foam beneath, all great for noise reduction and efficient climate control.
In 2021, Rattlesnake underwent several highly sought-after customizations, including:
Rerouting of running rigging for easy single-handed sailing

It’s been a few weeks now and the dust has settled. We had a great experience with the Multihull Company and in particular our broker, Caroline Laviolette. Caroline was happy to share her knowledge of the market and the catamarans we were interested in purchasing. She was patient and thorough as we looked at several boats in SE Florida, helped us narrow our search and eventually purchase a beautiful 2017 Lagoon 42. Many thanks to the team at The Multihull Company!
We had a great experience purchasing our boat with Will Miller as a buyers agent. Purchasing our first large Cat is a daunting experience and Will was able to walk us through the process with ease. Will was very straight forward and constantly gave us honest feedback as well as finding and pointing out details on all the boats that we may not have noticed or thought about.
We had a great experience and would use them again.
I would specifically recommend a buyers agent when purchasing to help weed through a lot of problems and misrepresented boats on the market.
We have had great experiences with the Multihull company. We both sold our old boat through them, and bought our new boat through them. I have to say that Will Miller is top-notch, and Riley was great as our broker for selling our O day 39. when you buy a Salt or Boat through them, I feel like you are not only clients, but you are friends. The lines of communication were always open and we were always informed of everything going on.
Riley, and the entire staff at The Multihull Company, were incredibly helpful and responsive in helping me find and purchase my catamaran. I was a first time purchaser and had many questions about the process and Riley was very responsive in answering those questions. I would recommend The Multihull Company to anyone in the market to purchase or sell their boat.
Successful relationships cannot exist without it. At The Multihull Company we base every relationship on a firm commitment to earning and retaining our client’s trust.
Advice of any kind is valuable only when grounded in hard-won expertise. It too, must be trustworthy. Trust and expertise define the heart and soul of The Multihull Company. We are a team of skilled professionals who thrive on providing expert, trustworthy advice and service to catamaran and trimaran sailors around the globe.
