2026 Fountaine Pajot FP41 Catamaran

The Fountaine Pajot FP41 is a modern sailing catamaran built in fiberglass with a beam of 22.70 feet, designed for long-range cruising across all ocean conditions. Two 80-horsepower Yanmar engines provide auxiliary power and help with manoeuvring. The design emphasizes seaworthiness, comfort, and ease of handling, combining the performance characteristics of a well-canvassed sailing platform with practical deck arrangements suited to both offshore passages and coastal cruising.

The deck layout features a dual helm station with a central pod containing all navigation instruments, giving the skipper excellent visibility and control. The crew has multiple spaces for relaxation, including sun loungers positioned on the bimini, forward of the coachroof, and an integrated lounger built into the port transom. This layout balances operational efficiency with comfort for extended time at sea.

The horizontal lines of the compact 41-footer create visual harmony and elegance typically associated with larger yachts. The catamaran is designed to handle both long passages with good sail drive and close-quarters manoeuvring near shore, offering the autonomy needed for extended cruising across diverse ocean environments.
