2023 Fountaine Pajot Astrea 42 Catamaran

This 2023 Fountaine Pajot Astrea 42 is a fiberglass catamaran built for extended cruising in warm waters. The Oceanic version emphasizes ventilation and comfort in tropical climates, and the yacht has been privately owned and lightly used since new. The four-cabin, four-head layout accommodates family groups, guests, or full-time living, with sleeping berths distributed across the beam to maximize space typical of the 42-foot, 23.6-foot beam design.

Power comes from twin Volvo D2 50 diesel engines with folding propellers, delivering 100 horsepower each for efficient cruising and responsive maneuvering. The boat carries a comprehensive electronics suite: Garmin navigation system with autopilot, AIS, and radar. A 65 liters per hour watermaker, lithium battery bank, solar panels, and inverter provide autonomous power and water generation for extended passages.

The cockpit is generously proportioned, with a plancha, large dining table, and a protected helm station sheltered by a bimini and enclosure. Onboard systems include air conditioning, electric winches, and an electric davit winch for tender handling. The catamaran has been maintained to a high standard and presents in excellent condition.
