2019 Fountaine Pajot Lucia 40

The Lucia 40, designed by Berret-Raccoupeau Yacht Design, is the entry level catamaran of the current Fountaine Pajot range, an easy to handle catamaran for a couple that represents great value for money. She has many of the features that have been developed on her larger sisters: a tidy multihull package that will suit many budgets.

This boat replaced the very popular Lipari 41 (that competes against another top seller in this size- read our Lagoon 400 review for more information) and, despite her length, still has the feel of a bigger boat at anchor. When you are in the marina, however, you’ll love the manoeuvrability of this yacht.

A Spacious 40 Footer. The hulls are well shaped to slip through the water while retaining more than enough width for living space in the hulls. And with fixed keels and that hard top bimini, she’s easy to manage and comfortable to sail on. The Lucia 40 is bigger than the Lipari 41 with a bigger cockpit, more living space and larger windows. But she is still a compact package.
