The Multihull Company is thrilled to unveil the new Tao 452, an exciting addition to the world of blue-water performance cruising catamarans. Meticulously engineered and crafted to perfection, the Tao 452 is set to redefine the catamaran experience for sailors worldwide.
If you’ve been left wanting more from the sailing performance of current production charter catamarans or have been unimpressed by the confined and unwelcoming living spaces of racing vessels, the Tao 452 is your answer. It has been expertly crafted to achieve the perfect equilibrium between on-anchor comfort and on-water performance. She’s swift, robust, secure, incredibly comfortable for extended stays, user-friendly to operate, and straightforward to maintain.
The Tao 452 represents the evolution of Hill’s earlier 421 design, which later became the Balance 451. With a slimmer hull fineness ratio, extended and sleeker bows and sterns, and the addition of dual high aspect ratio daggerboards alongside two shallow fixed mini-keels guarding her rudders and sail drives. She is engineered to be the swiftest yet most spacious and luxurious mid-sized performance production catamaran available today.
The quality of the Tao 452 exudes yacht-grade excellence in every aspect and becomes evident the moment you step inside our factory or inspect one of our yachts at an upcoming boat show. For those who harbor a genuine passion for sailing, for those who revel in the art of mastering all points of sail, and for those who seek unwavering reliability, even in the most adverse weather conditions—the Tao 452 is unequivocally your vessel of choice.

Cal Landau went above and beyond taking care of issues that came up during the listing. I can’t say enough.
CHRIS DID A GREAT JOB TAKING PICS AND INFO ABOUT THE BOAT AND REPRESENTED IT WILL. THE SALE COMPLETED WITHIN 3 MONTHS OF LISTING!
I recently sold my boat through The Multihull Company and was very pleased with the experience. Their professionalism and efficiency made the process smooth and hassle-free. Highly recommend their services for anyone looking to buy or sell a boat!
Highly recommend Andrew Hodgdon and The Multihull Company crew. They were an amazing resource throughout the entire purchase process – organizing viewing, getting the boat under contract and surveyed, all the way through closing. Communications were consistent and straight forward. Multiple personal touches along the way to make you feel like part of the team.
Could not be happier. Conor is just a super likable guy and he walked us through the whole process and Andrew handled all the paperwork and financials and together they got me into my first catamaran! Will definitely be calling Conor again when we buy our next boat!
