At the 2025 Cannes Yachting Festival, Fountaine Pajot has announced a bold new chapter in its history, unveiling an unprecedented line-up of four new sailing catamaran models, revolutionising the brand’s range, combining timeless design, innovative functionality and responsible sailing.
The FP41 marks the first of the launch of this new generation of models, setting a new standard in the 40-foot segment, offering luminous interiors, a raised helm and versatile cockpit. This sporty entry-level model will be arriving in Australia in October 2025 and on display with The Yacht Sales Co. at the Sydney International Boat Show from 13 – 16 November.
The new FP44 strikes a balance of comfort, performance and elegance with modular living spaces tailored to every sailing project. Crafted for carefree cruising, combining safety, performance and comfort, the model boasts an elegant design and spacious living areas that flow seamlessly between cockpit, flybridge and saloon. Her refined hull lines, discreet coachroof, and balanced rig deliver both striking looks and strong sailing performance, while features such as the double helm station, mid-height helm and fully opening saloon window enhance ease of handling and connection with the sea. Available with ODSea+ electric propulsion and up to 2,000W of solar panels, she offers sustainable long-range cruising, with flexible 3- or 4-cabin layouts including a Maestro version for customisable liveability.
They are joined by the FP48 (pictured below), successor to the acclaimed Tanna 47, which features a sleek profile, refined hulls and panoramic portholes delivering light-filled interiors and a superb connection to the sea, while the reimagined helm ensures safety and effortless manoeuvring. Inside, expansive living spaces flow seamlessly outdoors, with a saloon designed for entertaining, a fully equipped galley and flexible layouts including a luxurious owner’s suite and beautifully appointed guest cabins. On deck, the spacious cockpit, foredeck and flybridge provide multiple zones for relaxation, all designed with safety and comfort in mind.
The FP55 (pictured above) is the brand’s first flybridge catamaran with up to six double cabins and 6,300 W of solar power. The model sets a new standard in luxury cruising catamarans, blending innovative design, exhilarating performance and exceptional comfort. Created in collaboration with Berret-Racoupeau, this blue-water catamaran showcases seamless indoor–outdoor living, with expansive saloon glazing, a well-appointed galley and inviting lounge and dining areas. On deck, the vast flybridge offers a lounge, helm, and sunbathing zones, while the aft cockpit enhances the yacht’s connection to the sea. Accommodation is equally refined, with multiple layouts including a panoramic owner’s suite and spacious guest cabins, all crafted with meticulous finishes. Under sail, her modern hull and optimised rig deliver speed, stability, and efficiency, making the FP55 both a sophisticated retreat and a powerful cruising platform for unforgettable adventures.
These new yachts, launching through 2026, reaffirm Fountaine Pajot’s ambition to become the global reference for premium sailing catamarans, where conviviality, openness and authentic experiences define life on board.
The Fountaine Pajot Group is also setting new benchmarks in luxury motor cruising with the world premiere of the Power 80. Unveiled in September in Cannes, this 24-metre flagship delivers refined long-distance cruising with bespoke layouts and an aft terrace designed as a true overwater lounge.
