Fountaine Pajot has just launched the latest model to its sailing catamaran fleet, the New 44, distinguished by extraordinary volume, comfort and impeccable design.
The new model is an outstanding achievement by the Berret-Racoupeau Design team, who have created a catamaran with the perfect balance of performance, style and liveability.
Designed to optimise idyllic on-water lifestyles, the New 44 delivers exceptional safety and performance offshore and incomparable comfort at anchor.
Elegance, balance and performance are afforded by the model’s discreet yet wider coachroof, the subtly inverted deck sheer, sleek rig and subtly extended chine above the waterline.
This perfectly optimised catamaran offers generous relaxation space in the cockpit with a maximum opening from cockpit to central island, as well as a fully opening window and servery hatch to deliver seamless integration between the interior and alfresco living areas.
Set in the heart of the City of Sails in Jellicoe Harbour from 6 - 9 March, the 2025 Auckland Boat Show is set to showcase some of the world’s most prestigious power and sailing models.
