Fountaine Pajot Sailing Catamarans | FP51

The FP51 marks the next evolution in the Fountaine Pajot Sailing Catamarans range, representing the next chapter in a proven 50-foot platform while introducing refined design, enhanced functionality and a continued focus on energy efficiency and sustainable cruising. Developed by the shipyard in La Rochelle, the FP51 integrates the latest design language seen across Fountaine Pajot’s new-generation sailing catamarans, delivering improved comfort, usability and onboard autonomy for modern long-range cruising.

A refined deck design for improved circulation and comfort

The deck layout of the FP51 has been carefully refined to enhance ease of movement, onboard flow and everyday usability. Wide side decks, improved access points and an optimised helm station contribute to safer, more intuitive handling under sail and at anchor. A defining feature remains the full opening between the saloon and cockpit, creating a seamless connection between interior and exterior living spaces. This layout enhances communication between the galley and cockpit dining area, while reinforcing the open, light-filled living environment that has become a hallmark of the Fountaine Pajot range.

Renewable energy and increased onboard autonomy

Designed with energy efficiency in mind, the FP51 accommodates a substantial solar array without compromising its clean exterior lines. The expansive flybridge roof provides ample surface area for flush-mounted solar panels, supporting extended time at anchor and reduced reliance on onboard generators. This focus on renewable energy aligns with Fountaine Pajot’s broader commitment to sustainable cruising solutions, offering owners greater autonomy, quieter operation and improved energy management while underway or at rest.

Versatile layouts with up to six cabins and private ensuites

The FP51 offers a wide range of interior configurations to suit private owners and charter applications alike. Multiple layout options are available, including versions with up to six cabins, each with its own bathroom, delivering exceptional flexibility in a 51-foot sailing catamaran. Owner-focused layouts include the Maestro configuration, featuring a generous master suite occupying the port hull, while alternative arrangements provide adaptable accommodation solutions for families, guests or commercial use.
