2026 Fountaine Pajot Aura 51 Catamaran

The Fountaine Pajot Aura 51 is a 52-foot sailing catamaran built in composite and powered by two 114 hp Yanmar diesel engines. Designed for cruising sailors with or without crew, the Aura 51 offers exceptional space and flexibility across its 26-foot beam. The boat can be configured with two owner's cabins featuring direct aft access, and uniquely among catamarans of this size, it accommodates up to six double cabins with six heads, making it ideal for extended voyages with guests or crew.

The design prioritizes open, flowing spaces with carefully considered ergonomics that create a sense of freedom and ease of movement throughout. A 155 square-meter sail plan delivers strong performance in light wind conditions typical for the category. The yacht is equipped with up to 2,000 watts of integrated solar panels managed through a dedicated display system, supporting comfortable offshore cruising with renewable energy sources.

A hybrid electric version (ODSea+) is also available, featuring Fountaine Pajot's proprietary hybrid system designed to maximize renewable energy integration and cruising range. The boat is offered as a customizable package, with configuration options available to match individual preferences and cruising requirements.
