About
This is the evolution of a classic and one of the smartest boats you can buy. Ian Farrier took a second look at his hall of fame F-27 and evolved it into the F-28. He added larger amas for more stability and better sail carrying capability. He changed the stick to a rotating wing mast for cleaner airflow, faster upwind sailing, and deeper downwind angles. He added retractable bowsprit to carry a large screecher or asymmetrical spinnaker. Farrier relocated the outboard to allow it to turn with the rudder for better low speed maneuverability and easier docking. And this is the popular center cockpit version in which Ian Farrier created an interior with a private aft cabin, large forward cabin, central dinette, galley, and fully enclosed marine head.
Why is this one of the smartest boats you can buy? Because it can sail at windspeed, relocate at highway speed, and moor in 18" of water (or on its trailer in your backyard). It benefits from very sophisticated engineering by one of the best minds in multihulls. You can cruise it. You can race it. You can single-hand it. You can enjoy it with a crew of friends or a young family. You can sail the Pacific Northwest one week and the Channel Islands the next. You can range far and wide with an F-28. I once sold a Corsair for a fellow who had enjoyed sailing the Inside Passage, the Sea of Cortez, the Great Lakes, the Lakes of Texas, the Gulf Coast and just about everywhere in between on his Corsair. He was 87 years old when he was done! I had another client take one from the Great Lakes half way through the Northwest Passage - single-handed. These are incredibly versatile, incredibly well-engineered machines. This F-28 Center Cockpit has been well upgraded, has a new main sail, fresh running rigging, a nearly new trailer, a recent outboard, and it is ready to take you on your own adventures. Call or email Matthew to set a viewing. She is priced to sell and won't last.
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.
