I grew up in Barbados and have been racing and sailing catamarans since I was very young. Today I operate two successful day charter catamarans on Barbados, “WHY NOT”, and “WASN’T ME.”
I wake up every day and sail. Before I met Phillip Berman of The Multihull Company I thought I knew more about catamarans than anybody on earth. When it came time to buy a new catamaran for our business I really thought I could, “Do it myself on the internet.” Truth is, I could have – but I would never have gotten as good a catamaran if I hadn’t contacted The Multihull Company and asked Phillip to represent us as our buyer broker. On my own, I easily could have made a serious mistake.
Phillip’s knowledge of catamarans is unbelievable. He has visited nearly every catamaran factory in the world, sailed about every design on every ocean, and has been at hundreds of catamaran surveys. He is not only a World Champion catamaran racer, but a sort of “super agent” for catamarans. His contacts in the industry are second to none. You simply cannot believe how much time he can save you from looking at the wrong boats, or buy finding for you, from his amazing network, the right boats to consider.
Phillip not only found our new catamaran for us, he got her for a fantastic price and managed to get her delivered to Barbados from the North East Coast of the U.S. in January. The day the crew left the entire boat was covered in ice! But Phillip was there with them, readying the boat for me, and making the arrangements. He didn’t have to do this. It wasn’t part of the contract.
I can tell you that this is a man of his word who cares passionately about his clients.
I would never consider buying or selling a catamaran with anyone else.
Sincerely,
Captain Ron Williams, Barbados

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.
The multihull company, specifically Andrew Hodgson worked with me in the sale of Gods Grace, a 50’ Voyage 500. They made sure that as many people as possible touched it, laid hands on it, ultimately resulting in a offer and sale and was extremely helpful in the prep and sale process as I did not live locally… If you want to make sure that people actually see your vessel, will be honest and truly assist you in the sale, Andrew is the man for the job.
Andrew Hodgdon always goes above and beyond. After several transactions I wouldn’t work with anyone else in the industry.
Andrew at the Multihull Company was our buyer’s broker and he was excellent to work with. He thoroughly explained the purchase process, and helped with many questions along the way. We would definitely use Andrew and Multihull again to buy and sell catamarans and yachts.
