About

She has proven herself an outstanding live aboard for extended periods whilst cruising throughout New England, Caribbean, The Bahamas and New Zealand. A minimum draft of 3.5 ft renders navigating and anchoring in shallow waters hassle-free.
Entertaining friends & family is effortless with Cui Bono's large aft deck lounge area, open floorplan dining space, and four spacious guest cabins. Those who have sailed her affectionately recall stories of brunch and cocktails at 20 knots!
The boat can be quickly switched into delivery or regatta mode where 260-mile days are easily achievable. In the absence of wind, the twin 55HP Yanmar engines will motor comfortably at 8.5 kts in flat water. Overnight deliveries have been done with just two people, but four is preferred with longer offshore passages. Another unique feature is the simplicity of shutting the boat down and only having one person look after and maintain her whilst dormant. When active, two crew are required.
Her constant upgrades and maintenance have not only enhanced performance, but more importantly ensured the yacht is completely safe and offshore-ready.
The boat is currently undergoing a maintenance period including its rig service and other items in Newport, RI. It may move to Savannah, GA for the remainder of the Winter season.

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.
