The Lucia 40 represents a true revolution in its class because no other 40-feet catamaran guarantees such wide interior spaces that include a very bright dinette, ample cabins, a 12 m² cockpit, a 3 m² bow lounge area, as well as the largest master cabin in its class. The Lucia 40 was created for a balance between sporty sailing a cruising with family and friends. Volumes are well harmonized and the quality of the design is high, with great care towards details. Construction of the hull is comprised of a PVC foam-core sandwich with vacuum-laminated outer skins.

This unit was built in the Maestro version, with 3 cabins and one hull for the master and its cabins, wide wardrobes and a large (electric) bathroom with sun panels, Webasto heating system, electric winch, sprayhood with full cover for the cockpit, Bimini for the helmsman. Equipped with bowsprit and Cod 0, like new.

The Fountaine Pajot shipyard was founded in Aigrefeuille d’Aunis (South-Western France) in 1976 by Jean-François Fountaine, Olympic athlete in 470 category, Half Ton world champion in 1980 and winner of La Rochelle – New Orleans transatlantic race in 1982 on board of the brand new catamaran Charante-Maritime, and Yves Pajot, world champion in 505 category (1974) and silver medalist at Munich Olympic Games for the Flying Dutchman category (1972). Another production plant was added later in La Rochelle. The first models manufactured by the shipyard (505, 470 and 420) were centerboard with a composite sandwich construction and they were very innovative for their time. Starting in 1983, the shipyard started to manufacture the first multihull catamarans (Louisiane 37, Charente Maritime and the Royal trimaran) and soon after became one of the most renowned catamaran manufacturers in the world, with more than 40 models produced throughout its history. Between 1990 and 1997, Fountaine Pajot strategy kept on innovating with aesthetic, comfort and usability in mind, whereas from 1998 jumped into the fast-growing segment of power catamarans with models like the Maryland 37 and the Greenland 34. In 2012, the shipyard launched the “Eco-cruising” concept that incorporates renewable energy sources for the models in production. Fountain Pajot brand is currently associated to spacious, comfortable and eco-sustainable catamarans for cruising, with an average production of 150-180 boats per year. View the technical brochure of the Lucia 40
