Exceptional marine performance:
Designed by sailors, the Fountaine Pajot catamarans are particularly suitable for ocean sailing. The hulls, with their well-balanced volumes, are at their ease at all speeds and in all types of sea. The deck layout is carefully thought out and well equipped, ensuring efficient movement and safety during navigation for the crew.
The performance is equally remarkable thanks to the excellent power-to-weight ratio, the generous sail area is equally distributed between battened mainsail with ball bearings and genoa with furling. Fountaine Pajot catamarans have more than 500 Atlantic crossings to their credit and with their owners they have been around the world hundreds of times
Central anchorage:
The management of each berth is simple, at the touch of a button. Fountaine Pajot has devised this innovative anchoring system on a bridle to obtain different advantages:
Efficiency and rationality of consumption:
The extraordinary low fuel consumption of the Fountaine Pajot Motor Yachts catamarans is one of the main main attraction for many buyers who recognize the savings represented during long-range sailing. Fountaine Pajot Motor Yachts catamarans offer at least 40 percent reduction in fuel consumption compared to the performance of a similar size monohull. The reduced resistance created by the two hulls, added to the "wavepiercing" action, helps to reduce consumption rates considerably, increasing the autonomy up to a thousand miles (standard fuel tanks for the entire Fountaine Pajot Motor Yachts range).
Fountaine Pajot Motor Yachts: exceptional performance, stability and comfort
The Fountaine Pajot Motor Yachts catamarans are renowned for their superior performance in difficult conditions while maintaining excellent stability and comfort during navigation. High speeds are achievable even in difficult conditions thanks to the design of the semi-displacement hull: at higher speeds a greater part of the hull remains immersed in water, reducing the impact stress of the hull on the wave
The design of the hull offers an incredibly dry platform at sea allowing you to move safely in the outside without the encounter of gradients. Unlike many of its competitors, the Fountaine Pajot motor boats are pleasantly quiet (the engines have their own dedicated access).
Bridge without obstacles:
Moving on board is safe and easy thanks to the absence of dangerous fittings on the bridge (without shrouds, without fittings on the catwalks, gangway etc), keeping the bridge well organized, comfortable and safe.
All load-bearing structures are incorporated into the edge of the hull.
Easy maneuvers in port:
The two engines and the position of the steering station make the maneuver much easier than a monohull.
Ease of access:
All catamarans guarantee easy access: everything is within walking distance. The tightening system of the tender is facilitated because it is installed on a completely clear stainless steel davit eliminating the risk of damage to the drift.
Life on board: the daily activities on board a Fountaine Pajot catamaran take place in two well-defined spaces: social life at the top level in the salon, and privacy in the cabins housed in the hulls.
Lounge area:
The salon of all models offers 360 ° panoramic visibility. It is the social area, ideal for cooking, eating, relaxing with friends and planning the trip. The famous "x-cap" patent common to all Fountaine Pajot catamarans is much more than a trademark. It prevents the greenhouse effect and keeps the salon shaded permanently. The areas for catering and relaxation are very comfortable, with a large and practical table in the living room and a comfortable sofa that hides large lockers.
Chartering:
The navigation instruments are easily accommodated in the practical chart table.
Kitchen:
The kitchen is not only functional but also very well equipped. All the equipment is arranged on one level to facilitate the cooking phase in any sea condition. There are numerous storage spaces to satisfy the long cruisers. The kitchen extends to the cockpit, thus doubling the area available for social activities during breaks.
Cabins:
The Fountaine Pajot catamarans have cabins at the ends of their hulls. This provides a perfect separation of private areas and their independence. Fountaine Pajot never compromises cabin height, access width, engine room insulation and ventilation. Separated from each other, the cabins are comfortable and well ventilated. Access to the beds is very easy. Each cabin is designed to have enough ergonomic space to live even for long cruises.
Owner's Suite:
Throughout the sail and motor range, Fountaine Pajot has designed the owner's version "MAESTRO" to satisfy customers who want to live comfortably on board for long cruises or offer their guests a hull all for themselves.
Fountaine Pajot Motor Yachts Flybridge:
Each of the Fountaine Pajot Motor Yachts models enjoys excellent protection from natural elements. The 360-degree view of the flybridge is also complemented by panoramic views from the inside cockpit, creating a light, ambience and a safe experience especially during long passages.
