Fountaine Pajot FP44 (2026-)



Brief Summary

Scheduled to make her American debut at the Annapolis Boat Show October 9-12.

The FP44 is a sailing catamaran built by Fountaine Pajot, a well-known builder with a long history of creating catamarans that are both safe and high-performing. This model is designed to be a comfortable and versatile platform for a crew to enjoy long-distance sailing. Its design balances elegance and performance, featuring a sleek, discreet profile that not only looks great but also helps it sail efficiently.

  • Open and Integrated Spaces: The living area is designed to feel like one big, flowing space. A fully opening window and a central serving hatch connect the indoor and outdoor areas, so you'll always feel connected to the water and your crew, no matter the weather.
  • Optimal Helm Station: The helm station is placed at a mid-height, giving you great visibility and keeping you in direct contact with your crew, whether they're in the cockpit or on the flybridge.
  • Flexible Layouts: The FP44 is available with either a 3 or 4-cabin layout. In the Maestro version, you can customize the forward cabin with a desk or even a small space for a "baby-cabin" or a workshop.
  • Ease of Maneuvering: The deck layout uses a double maneuvering and helm station, a favorite among users that makes sailing and trimming the rig easy and efficient.
  • Eco-Friendly Options: You can choose to have the boat equipped with an electric drivetrain and up to 2,000W of solar panels.
