On board the FP51, every space invites you to experience the sea your way. Two versions, the same freedom to sail.
Spaces to share, without compromising privacy
With her 4, 5, or 6 cabin configurations, the FP51 retains an architecture renowned for her generous volumes and versatile layouts. Depending on the configuration, her hulls can accommodate up to two owner’s suites, while the salon and aft cockpit create an expansive living area that opens seamlessly to the outdoors.
A layout designed to preserve everyone’s privacy, ensure effortless movement on board, and bring family and friends together.
With her Lounge Deck and Flybridge versions, the FP51 offers two complementary onboard experiences. The Lounge Deck retains its signature relaxation area, while the FP51 FLY features a centralized helm station forward and a new social space aft. A table, comfortable seating, and a relaxation area create an inviting outdoor living space overlooking the sea, accessible from both port and starboard. Two ways to make the most of every journey.

Whether under sail or at anchor, the FP51 invites you to savor every moment, share the joys of life at sea, and imagine new horizons.
The FP51 integrates the energy management solutions developed by Fountaine Pajot Sailing Catamarans. With up to 2,000 W of integrated solar panels, she helps enhance onboard energy autonomy. Energy production, storage, and consumption monitoring are brought together in a dedicated interface, making everyday energy management simple and intuitive.
Available with optional ODSea+ propulsion, the FP51 supports a more responsible approach to bluewater cruising, without compromising comfort or the pleasure of sailing.
The FP51 introduces refinements to her interior spaces, enhancing comfort and conviviality on board. Updated upholstery, a built-in 253-liter refrigerator, and a new instrument display mount bring thoughtful improvements to the salon. The seating layout has also been refined, preserving easy movement and the openness of the living spaces. Shared by both the Lounge Deck and Flybridge versions, these updates bring together ergonomics, comfort, and quality of life on board in every detail.
Millesime 2027 offers a simple, calming atmosphere. Abundant natural light flows through the space, gently illuminating every surface. Soft tones, light wood finishes, and pleasant-to-the-touch textiles create a true sense of serenity. The furniture features rounded, enveloping lines—such as the headboards—bringing comfort without overwhelming the space. Every detail is designed to encourage calm and relaxation. The overall ambiance conveys a feeling of well-being. Each element is carefully selected to deliver comfort, clarity, simplicity, and brightness—resulting in a luminous, welcoming space designed for everyday living. All fabrics used in this Millesime are made from recycled materials.

Innovative, high-tech composite materials constitute most of the structure of our sailing catamarans: hulls, flybridge, decks, bulkheads and more. Fountaine Pajot has perfected a resin injection and infusion technique, an advanced technology that gives our boats all their robustness. Thanks to this expertise, we can make our catamarans considerably lighter while maintaining consistent quality. Injection also makes it possible to meet the most stringent environmental requirements, in line with the commitments of the Fountaine Pajot Group.
Sailing catamarans from 40 to 50 feet are built at the Aigrefeuille headquarters, a few kilometres from La Rochelle. Catamaran yachts from 51 to 80 feet are built in La Rochelle, France, where they benefit from a slipway.
It is essential to define your sailing program: define the size of the crew on board, the level of sailing knowledge, the sailing project and the target sailing area. Every project is different.

The ergonomics of Fountaine Pajot catamarans have been designed to facilitate manoeuvring at the helm, enabling a small crew (2 persons) to manoeuvre the boat easily, both in port and at sea. The unique design of the helm station allows good communication between the aft cockpit and the Fly relaxation areas. Of course, your level of navigation will determine your ability to sail with two or more persons!
Our electric catamarans now feature a large surface area of solar panels, up to 2000 WC, perfectly integrated into the design of the coachroof. Combined with equipment such as wind turbines or hydro-generators, they compensate for the energy consumption generated by on-board use during cruising. Discover the benefits of the Smart Electric solution with 4 real-life cruise scenarios
The Fountaine Pajot range of electric catamarans is expanding, and now includes 3 ODSea+ models. The Astréa 42, Elba 45 and Aura 51 are now available in this version.
With the help of over 70 engineers, Fountaine Pajot has developed an in-house solution, 100% adapted to the use of its catamarans equipped with hybrid electric motors.
