Fountaine-Pajot was established in 1976 and is the largest builder of cruising catamarans in the world. They have two production plants, close to the famous sailing port of La Rochelle in France, where all boats are constructed to the Det Norske Veritas Certification ISO 9001 and 9002 – a very stringent quality control system.

The in-house design team work closely with internationally renowned naval architects such as Joubert/Nivelt and Berret/Racoupeau to produce power and sailing cruising catamarans that are not only sleek and purposeful, but incorporate quality, dependability, safety, performance and comfort in equal measure.

These catamarans are great value for money and brimming with innovative features: Light and airy interiors with 6ft 3" headroom and more throughout; an extended coach roof that protects the saloon from the heat and glare of the sun; the solid section to the bimini giving walkway access to the entire length of the boom; the highest bridge deck clearance in their class, eliminating the pounding in a seaway experienced on other cats; clear side decks (no shrouds in the way) for easy access forward; Optimized hull shapes and careful volume distribution, making the boats fast, and sea worthy; the boats are “unsinkable”, and with a crash bulkhead forward, as well as keels that are sacrificial, the hulls are able to remain entirely watertight in the event of an underwater collision.
