Welcome to the latest buzz regarding the Corsairs The Seawind/Corsair Regatta was held recently and with some gusty strong winds the Corsairs excelled with the odd dipping the leeward float and bow (Multihull Central – skipper Brent Vaughan) but the boats just shook it off and bounced back for more – talk a bout a forgiving boat – those extra flotation almas introduced with the 760 make the boats very forgiving and boost confidence in what you can do with 15knts boat speed in blustery conditions on the way to winning a great regatta. Talking about Regatta (skipper Michael Meehan) doesn’t it look good with spinnaker And finally how is this for a close finish after 40 minutes of racing – Regatta by a nose over Multihull Central Later this year the Seawind/Corsair regatta will be held over the 7th and 8th of October…
Sydney, Australia – 8 February 2021 HH Catamarans has named Multihull Central as the exclusive distributor for Australia and New Zealand as the up and coming brand of high performance catamarans releasing some innovative new designs and ramps up production for their new44 and 50foot models. This comes as HH Catamarans also recruits Seth Hynes as President to help steer the company into its next stage of growth. Seth who has a marketing background in luxury goods, is well known from his popular YouTube channel ‘The Sailing Family’ which documented his family’s journey halfway around the world on a51 foot performance catamaran “Archer”. “We chose Multihull Central to be our distributors due to their experience and knowledge of the performance catamaran segment of the industry,” comments Seth.

The first hull of the new Longreach 58 power catamaran has been built as construction ramps up and development of the high performance long range cruiser takes shape. As the first pictures indicate the highly efficient displacement hull shape is clearly evident as are the extended reverse bow design, spray chines and bridge deck wave breaker that will help enable the boat to cruise at speeds up to 25 knots, but importantly motor very efficiently between 10-15 knots allowing long range cruising. Vacuum bagging of the foam core bulkheads has also been progressing rapidly as the structure takes form. No balsa core is used either through the hull or bulkheads, with the superior foam core used to reduce weight and potential for rot in the future. A team of experienced boat builders are bringing the Longreach 58 to life with technology…
What have our brokers Michael and Alex been up to lately? (just prior to the Cornavirus shutdowns) Well, a container carrying 2 Corsair 760s arrived in the Multihull Central yard and we had the job of assembling them and then handing the Corsair 760R over to it’s new owner Rob Laws. The below is how we did this and also assembled the stock 760 all in a week. In this photo we have already pulled the 760R out and have the slings attached to pull the stock 760. Note the masts attached at the top of the container, everything else was in or attached to the boats like a big mechano set and two “boys” ready to get into it. The boats piggy back inside the container as it is only 12 metres long and we have two 7.6 metre boats – Corsair have…

Following strong demand for charters on Sydney Harbour last season, we are seeking investors for a new Aquila 44 and Aquila 36 to be managed and operated by our new charter boat business ‘Charter Boat Central’.

We beleive that each model built to 1E survey will present a competitive and niche top end charter product for Sydney harbour, with healthy returns expected. With a falling AUD, the Sydney Tourism industry is in the front seat to benefit and we will be working with industry experts and agencies to ensure we reach specialised markets, while we also take care of all management services to provide a concierge service for the boat owner who also gains from the financial and tax benfits, including ability to claim back GST and…
