Lucia 40

Lucia 40 - Full Bareboat or B/b with Skipper Catamarans

The Lucia 40 catamaran is an impressive boat with sleek lines and tons of living space, a design that optimizes volume inside and out so you can enjoy your sailing holiday in style. The Lucia 40 replaces the enormously successful Lipari 41 and Mahe 36 in the Fountaine Pajot stable, a popular addition sure to keep this highly-regarded production range of boats right up to date.

Length:
11.7m, 38'
Charter Type:
Full Bareboat or B/b with Skipper
Guests:
8
Cabins:
4 double

The use of modern materials and constructions methods throughout this boat has kept the weight down and the volume up. This makes for a lighter, faster and roomier catamaran than others in its class. In fact the volume of the Lucia 40 is 25% greater than that of its predecessor the Lipari 41. This extra space is reflected through the boat's interior and in the spacious lounge across the back. Forward there is considerably more deck and net space to ensure complete relaxation aboard.

Wide windows in the fully-equipped main saloon allow unobstructed 360° views, while the opening hull ports are also generous in size. The cabins can only be described as luxurious, space as well as comfort level making these private areas second-to-none in the charter cat market. Each cabin has its own opening side hatch.

The separate helm station on the Lucia 40 is conveniently designed for boat handling; easy to reach from the after lounge and with direct access to the main deck. From here the helmsman is in full control of a boat high on charter cat performance in every respect.

The boat was as expected for a 2018 catamaran. The only issue was with one of the two toilets.
Amazing place with so many anchorage options. A great 2 weeks with nature and small villages. We loved it!
(Your servise was) Perfect as usual! I can't wait for us to work again together for another destination. Your advices and reliability are priceless :) Thanks again to Sue and Robert! Eric, Canada, Aug 20th, 2024

The Lucia was great. we had a lot of fun and she did not let us down. There is one big complaint though and it is how hard the tender is to pull up on the Davits. I was able to do it but it was extremely heavy and if there was older or less fit people on board they would have had a terrible time.

Bora Bora and Huahine were amazing. On second thoughts everywhere was amazing.

Practically new boat, so was in great shape. We liked the design, equipage, etc. Everything was as advertised and cannot think of anything serious to complain about. Quite comfortable. We would go back to the Leeward Islands of Tahiti in a speedy minute. Spectacular scenery, not at all crowded, felt private in all our anchorages. Nice, friendly people. Robert, USA, Jul 31st, 2018
First rate service in all respects. At the end of the charter we were practically ready to adopt our skipper and hostess. We truly enjoyed their company as well as high level of competence and knowledge. Checking in and out was a snap. We had such a great experience with Sail Connections, our boat and itinerary.
