Fountaine Pajot Lipari 41

Fountaine Pajot is set to release a new Lipari 41 for 2014. The new cat, which reflects the lines of the Helia 44, features a new cockpit, and a large glass sliding door between the cockpit and the saloon providing easy access to the galley.

The cockpit features comfortable seating for up to eight and more room for entertaining or relaxing. The cockpit and saloon are on the same level for a seamless indoor/outdoor transition.

The new galley featuring benchtops in synthetic resin opens directly onto the cockpit dining area and the new drawer refrigerator offers a capacity of 144 litres.

A new interior design includes a huge owner's suite with queen-size bed and a luxurious en suite bathroom, says the French cat builder.

The remaining two cabins benefit from large picture windows, providing light with natural ventilation from opening portholes.

Foutaine Pajot says the Lipari 41 will offer a high level of sailing performance and, with two upgraded engines, it'll also be no slouch under power.

Built with the very latest technology, and after 1000 miles of rigorous sea trials, the new Lipari 41 will join the Fountaine Pajot range at its debut at the Festival de la Plaisance of Cannes from September 10-15. Doubtless she'll make her way Down Under soon after.
