This Dolphin 430, owned until 2021 by a retired international commercial airline pilot, is in amazing condition for a yacht of her vintage.  She has used for here entire life for sailing to the Bahamas.

Always maintained to top standards.  She is the same hull and tooling as the popular Dolphin 460, the famous Brazilian built catamaran that has many circumnavigations in the design's history. 

Big daggerboards, carbon mast, all foam core hulls, vinylester resin, she is a top flight build crafted by legendary boat builder Philippe Pouvreau, a third generation French builder who set up his factory in Brazil. Philippe continues to build custom cats in Brazil.

The Dolphin production ceased in 2009 due to the global financial crisis, but the 24 that were built are sailing all over the world and they are cherished by their owners for their optimum performance, great craftsmanship, and robust construction.

    We take pride in our happy customers

    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.

    — Victor Plavner

    Great to deal with and very patient in our questions. They were able to find us the perfect vessel for our needs.
