The Multihull Company is pleased to announce the opening of its new offices at Red Frog Marina in Panama with Associate Broker Charles Badoian.
At 12 years old Charles told his mom he wanted to live on a boat and that dream became a reality at 35 when he moved onboard a baby trimaran full time. Growing up in Greece and moving back to the USA for highschool and college, Charles has never veered far from the water. After a decade in the Florida Keys and the Bahamas, Charles is now based in Bocas del Toro Panama, living on his Shuttleworth catamaran. Charles has a deep understanding of ship systems and has been living off grid for over a decade, with a significant amount of shorthanded performance sailing. “There are few things I appreciate more than watching the eyes of a new owner light up when taking the helm of their new boat for the first time, or seeing a well-loved boat going to a great new home, and knowing I helped make that a reality”
Now, Charles joins the growing team at TMC at its new offices at Red Frog Marina in Panama. Just north of the Panama Canal, Red Frog Marina is a superb location to slip your catamaran before a crossing in the canal or hauling out at the renowned Shelter Bay Marina. For assistance with any work or logistics you might need help with in Panama, be sure to contact Charles!
CHRIS DID A GREAT JOB TAKING PICS AND INFO ABOUT THE BOAT AND REPRESENTED IT WILL. THE SALE COMPLETED WITHIN 3 MONTHS OF LISTING!
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.
