This new model is making a clean sweep of the range, eclipsing the Astrea 42 and Elba 45.
More focused on comfort than its predecessors, the FP44 is particularly convivial, putting the emphasis on relaxation areas - a 100-square foot (9.2 m²) forward sunlounger, a 115-sq ft (10.7 m²) lounge deck on the flybridge and an additional lounger in the cockpit. This choice appears to have been welcomed by both charter companies and private owners, with delivery dates now running into March 2027...
While the shipyard has remained faithful to its dual helm/maneuvering station, a superb Tesla-style control screen is now available.
Inside, the FP44 features wide forward openings, but notably sees the return of the island unit - this had deserted the nacelle of the Saona 47, which became the Tanna 47.
The 44 was designed from the outset to be available in a hybrid-electric version. In this green spirit, this catamaran can be fitted with 2,300 Wp of solar panels, not only on the coachroof, but also on the aft of the bimini and the trampolines.
