The Fountaine Pajot quality is the result of the optimal balance between an industrial process and craftsmanship of the highest quality. Carpenters, cabinetmakers, electricians, plumbers, motorists, decorators: all the trades involved in the creation of a Fountaine Pajot catamaran Yacht bring together the best talents to meet your requirements. The materials, technological or natural, make a Fountaine Pajot boat the absolute must for sailing.
At the heart of our expertise is our ability to anticipate. Our two design offices draw on our forty years of experience while still questioning the certainties we have acquired, in order to constantly improve performance through innovation. This insatiable desire to preserve the best of the present by combining it with the best of research contributes to further optimize life on board our boats. We do not choose between comfort and performance, we approach them as complementary features that must reinforce each other to make our models unique, modern and innovative.
Our teams of engineers are located in our two production centres: in Aigrefeuille, we have our headquarters and historic factory in charge of the Fountaine Pajot core range boats, and in La Rochelle, where we specialise in “Flagships” models, catamarans over 50 feet and Motor Yachts, with a specific dedicated team.
Innovative and high-tech composite materials constitute the main part of the structure of our sailing catamarans and motor catamarans: hulls, flybridge, decks, bulkheads, etc. At Fountaine Pajot, we have developed a resin injection and infusion technique, an advanced technology that gives our boats their unique strength.
Thanks to this expertise, we are able to considerably reduce the weight of our catamarans while maintaining a high level of quality. The process also allows us to meet the most stringent environmental requirements, in line with our corporate philosophy.
At Fountaine Pajot, we know that sensual pleasure is the source of happiness at sea. Just think back to the caress of the wind, the blue and salty scents, or the warmth of a ray of sunshine to remember how much the pleasure of the senses pervades the pleasure of sailing. Our carpenters have in mind this craving for a sensuous experience when they design, polish and assemble the wood that constitutes the interior of your boat.
The nobility of the woods they craft and the craftsmanship that drives their skillful actions give our models a unique soul that will accompany each of your sea outings.
As the world reference for sailing catamarans and power catamarans, we had to build an international network of service points as efficient as our boats, to support our catamarans owners over the long term. Associated with the most reliable partners, we ensure trust over time for the support and monitoring of our boats.
Thanks to this close partnership, we are able to anticipate technological advances that will improve your boating experience. With Volvo Penta, we provide fast and reliable after-sales service in more than 130 countries, as well as with our sailmakers and electronics partners.
As we come from competitive sailing, Fountaine Pajot stands out for our high technical standards. We maintain the highest level of diligence in the choice of the partners with whom we collaborate year after year, in a constant search for innovation and improvement.
As specialists in multihulls, and inspired by offshore racing, our suppliers, driven by the same passion for sailing, guarantee equipment that is both maneuverable and high performance.
At Fountaine Pajot, we are aware that we can no longer sail today without actively engaging in environmental protection. As people who love and are passionate about the sea, we make marine ecology in particular our priority. This is why we developed the concept of “Eco-cruising”, and subsequently “Smart Cruising”, a set of energy and information technologies for eco-responsible sailing.
With the possibility of fitting boats with renewable energy sources, electronic and connected navigation assistance systems, we enable our yachtsmen to maintain full control over their fuel consumption and reduce their ecological footprint in every aspect of life on board.
