Team management

From its humble origins of just four staff, Fountaine Pajot is now powered by a dedicated team of more than 800 highly skilled collaborators who operate from our 3 production sites. Our core range sailing catamarans are built in Aigrefeuille, a short distance from La Rochelle. At the Port Neuf factory in La Rochelle, our Flagship catamaran range are constructed to allow convenient direct launching without the need for road transportation. Our motor yachts are built in Gujan-Mestras.
