The 2026 edition will be highlighted by the world-premiere presentation of three new models: the FP48 and FP55, which continue the renewal of the Sailing Catamarans range initiated with the FP41 and FP44, as well as the FPY70S, a new sailing yacht designed to expand the Fountaine Pajot Yachts lineup.

A particularly noteworthy feature of the event is that visitors will have the opportunity to sea-trial the new FP48 and FP55 before their official launch, scheduled for September at the Cannes Yachting Festival.

Alongside these new models, the builder will also display several flagship yachts from its range, including the Samana 59 and the Thíra 80. The Open Days will also offer guided tours of the La Rochelle and Aigrefeuille production facilities, providing visitors with an inside look at the design and manufacturing processes behind the company’s catamarans.

Technical partners, equipment suppliers and onboard electronics specialists will also be present, making this event much more than a simple boat show: a true immersion into the world of Fountaine Pajot, held as part of the shipyard’s 50th anniversary celebrations.
