About
Over the course of four decades, the Catana shipyard has created and developed a long line of very successful and proven blue water cats that emphasize performance and dynamic comfort (i.e under way). With this latest model, the Catana 50 Ocean Class, the yard innovates like never before to push the boundaries of comfort and utility to a new level. The Catana 50 OC offers more interior volume, headroom, payload capacity, galley counter space, engine room space, than any of its predecessors. It boasts superb ergonomics on deck and vastly improved sail-handling with a raised helm that brings all lines to a large cockpit. All of this while conserving its trademark high bridge-deck clearance, efficient dagger-boards, outsized freeboard and inverted asymmetric bows. With a powerful 90 sq meter mainsail and overlapping genoa, the Catana 50 OC is all the thoroughbred that its predecessors were. No compromise has been made to offshore performance, reliability and safety.
Catana 50 OC HEBY is hull #5 of this distinctive, new model. This 3 cabin/2 head layout is a 2023 model and shows like new in every department. The engines have 350 hours on them, the interior is immaculate, the sails and running rigging are crisp. The choice of options is well considered for reliable, long range voyaging. Upgraded 80 HP Yanmar engines for optimal power push Max Prop feathering props for improved maneuverability in port. The sail wardrobe includes genoa and gennaker with a self-tacking Solent track option installed. An upgraded 17.5 KVA generator keeps all amenities humming with the assistance of a Lithium house battery pack: full air-conditioning to the 3 cabins, household fridge-freezer with an expanded freezer capacity, Spectra water-maker to name the highlights. A large solar array and large engine alternators provide alternative sources of onboard power.
Catana is the ultimate bluewater cruising machine and HEBY has been specified to exceed the reputation in every way. Please review the detailed specification and numerous photos and video in the listing. We will be delighted to arrange a showing for you.

My wife and I worked with Andrew Hodgdon to sell our 2021 FP Elba 45. In addition to skillfully carrying out the traditional yacht broker responsibilities, Andrew went above-and-beyond to ensure that we were well-positioned to sell in a competitive market. For example, Andrew helped out with much-appreciated repairs and hurricane prep, among other things. Trustworthy, intelligent, and conscientious, Andrew’s communications with us and the buyer were always thoughtful and forward-thinking, and fairly represented our interests.
We really lucked out in connecting with The Multihull Company. We made a cold call to Cynthia Wummer, a Multihull Company broker and told her we wanted to buy a catamaran to cruise The Great Loop and experience the Bahamas. We particularly wanted a PDQ power catamaran. From our first contact she was so helpful and responsive. She immediately contacted a selling broker who represented a prospective seller. Because we are new to a bigger boat and boating on the ICW, Cynthia assisted us through the entire process. She is a captain which was an added bonus to the process; she knew all the right questions to ask the selling broker as well as the surveyor. She drove 3 hours to be present during the survey, she developed a good relationship with the selling broker, she called and checked in with us regularly, was very enthusiastic about our purchase, and answered all our questions. We could not have done it without her. The Multlihull Company support team, Andrew Holland and Courtney Greider, were so helpful in the closing process: the paperwork was easy to complete and communication was smooth and timely. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend The Multihull Company and Cynthia to anyone who is the market for a boat large or small. Thank you!!!!
Multihull Company has succeeded again. This is my second time using their services and they are extremely professional and honest. Working with their brokers and their administrative team was easy. Communication occurred at every level and constructive advise was always given. They know this business inside and out and acted as my fiduciary in every way. I will use them again for their service and knowledge.
Great to deal with and very patient in our questions. They were able to find us the perfect vessel for our needs.
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.
