The Multihull Company Trinidad, located at The Catmaran Village in Chaguaramas (a 14,572-acre National park composed of a peninsula and attending archipelago of offshore islands, only 20 minutes by car from Port of Spain, Trinidad & Tobago’s capital) is an ideal location for you to place your catamaran for sale, have repairs made or to store your boat on the hard. Located seven miles off the coast of Venezuela, well outside of the hurricane belt, Trinidad is one of the Caribbean’s safest harbors.
Multihull Company Associate Broker Jaryd Forbes splits his time between this office and Spice Island Marina in Grenada and can assist clients travelling to Grenada or Trinidad with any requests.
Growing up in Trinidad & Tobago, Jaryd Forbes love of the ocean started at a very young age. Travelling aboard his Fathers Lagoon 42 “Delphini”, Jaryd developed a thorough knowledge and affinity for crafts of all types as well as ocean faring.
With experience ranging from power to sailboats of all models and sizes, and assisting with pre-purchase surveys and deliveries, he possesses an intimate knowledge of his native Trinidad and the wider Caribbean in order to better serve TMC clients.
With a strong background for business from schooling and managing Imagination Ltd, a family owned business started in 1991,and his vast knowledge of the sea and crafts of all types, Jaryd decided to join TMC in the Summer of 2012 as an associate broker in Trinidad & Tobago and Grenada.
With his vast knowledge, TMC is excited in adding Jaryd Forbes to its far reaching global network of knowledgeable brokers to better serve TMC customers around the world.
In addition to brokerage, TMC is proud to be able to offer a full service experience while you are in Trinidad. The Multihull Company at The Catamaran Village offers brokerage, hauling and launching/security storage 24/7, fiberglass repair, osmosis treatment, interior refurbishments, electrical repairs, air conditioning and refrigeration repairs, water makers, generators, solar energy and so much more thanks to its long-standing relationship with master catamaran builder Philippe Richard.
Originally from France, Philippe runs Catamaran Village, the premier catamaran repair and refurbishing center in the Caribbean. Originally he remodeled the interior of homes, but his passion for designing and refurbishing yachts led him to a new beginning in Trinidad in1998. Philippe is an expert on every facet of a Multihull and since Aikane is a haven for sailors during hurricane season he is familiar with every brand of Multihull available today. Philippe believes in the well-being of people so he will go out of his way to make sure that his clients are completely satisfied. Technical excellence coupled with excellent communication and people skills makes Philippe an invaluable asset to The Multihull Company team.
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!
I’ve used The Multihull Company to list and sell two catamarans in the past year and they have been excellent to work with. The first cat was a vessel (42 Lagoon) I had released from my charter company. We had som difficulties during the sale process with the buyer finalizing the purchase and TMC handled things beautifully and we were able to close as expected. The second, a 1997 Island Packet Cat, they were able to attract multiple potential buyers, in a fairly short period of time, and just before our sailing season ended here in Michigan. Will, Andrew, Riley and the rest of the team there have been excellent to work with. Very professional and responsive. As someone that has worked in sales and sales management for my entire career, I appreciate the process they have in place and their execution.
Yacht Broker Micheal Streng did a fantastic job helping us buy our dream retirement boat. He is pleasant, professional, smart, diligent, and totally focused toward ensuring the best outcome for us- his clients.
He helped us identify the key features we wanted. And, helped us then learn the market by seeing firsthand seeing all the boats available. How? By organizing a two day driving extravaganza to see as many boats available from dawn to dusk.
But, his crucial expert assistance continued throughout the whole buying process… helping us craft multiple offers and counter offers to ensure we “bought-right”!
His expertise continued with calmly helping us organize the multitude of details, from sourcing survey experts and renegotiating credits for issues… to ensuring our foreign manufactured vessel had duty paid receipts… thus all saving us much aggravation and thousands of dollars!
In closing, sourcing and buying a boat right has adventurous elements of the “wild-west”. Our Broker – Micheal Streng was our LoneRanger & Tonto… expertly guiding and helping us to help make our dream a reality.
