2008 Fountaine Pajot Orana 44 Catamaran for Sale in La Paz, Sea of Cortez


This exceptionally well-equipped 2008 Fountaine Pajot Orana 44 is a proven bluewater cruising catamaran located in La Paz, Mexico, the gateway to the Sea of Cortez, one of the world’s most celebrated cruising grounds.

Designed by Joubert–Nivelt and built by Fountaine Pajot, the Orana 44 is known for its ideal balance of performance, comfort, and liveaboard functionality. With a 24’11” beam, shallow 4’ draft, and generous displacement, this catamaran delivers excellent stability, efficiency, and access to remote anchorages throughout Baja, mainland Mexico, and beyond.

This vessel stands out thanks to an extensive list of recent upgrades and cruising-focused systems, including 1,400W of solar, wind generation, Victron power management, a Mastervolt generator, Cruise RO watermaker, and fully rebuilt Yanmar 3JH4E engines and saildrives. A modern B&G navigation suite, Starlink connectivity, electric winches, upgraded sails (including Code Zero and Parasailor), and a turnkey dinghy/outboard package make her exceptionally well prepared for long-range cruising or full-time liveaboard use.

The Orana 44’s spacious cockpit, fully enclosed helm, bright saloon, and comfortable accommodations create an ideal platform for entertaining, extended voyages, or enjoying life at anchor in warm-water destinations. From island-hopping in the Sea of Cortez to offshore passagemaking, this catamaran is set up to go now, with no major projects required.

Clean, thoughtfully upgraded, and strategically located in La Paz, this Fountaine Pajot Orana 44 represents a rare opportunity to acquire a turnkey cruising catamaran in one of the best sailing regions in the world.

Exclusively listed by La Paz Yachts, inquiries encouraged — serious cruising boats like this are seldom available in such complete condition!

We take pride in our happy customers

I chose Zee (Zvonimir Kalinic) after posting an ad for a broker on Yacht Sales from about 15 other brokers because he showed professionalism and care right away compared to the others. Most of the brokers never intended to show people my boat but yet somehow expected to collect commission. Zee met me in Novigrad and spent 3 hours taking photos and drone footage and throughout the listing period was communicating continuously and advising me about any offers that came through. His service was at a high standard that I was extremely happy with and felt comfortable at all times especially since I’m in Sydney and my boat is in Montenegro. I can’t recommend Zee highly enough to anyone looking to sell their boat with peace of mind.

— Mark Eymes

The brokerage team has been amazing. They helped me find the right catamaran for our family of four, with enough space for extended family and friends to stay with us anytime. The broker really helped me narrow down what I needed. I started with a long list and eventually narrowed it down to something that was the right fit and price for me.

— Adam Munder

Our broker Mike Rybas was excellent – great experience!

— Chris Hannant

I cannot speak too highly of Andrew Hodgdon and his colleagues at the Multihull Company.

The process of selling my boat was very smooth and well managed and with excellent communication – especially important as I was unable to be nearby during the sale process. Andrew’s deep knowledge of the market and my boat was very reassuring. We spoke regularly and he kept me closely advised all the way through to a happy sale. I found him a good guy, very helpful, willing to share and bounce ideas around, and I enjoyed working with him. Highly recommended!

— Allan Morrison

Andrew Hodgdon and The Multihull Company are really professional! I just closed a deal with them, and everything was pretty smooth. Andrew was punctual, showed a lot of expertise, and he was honest about all the problems with the boat. He is also giving me the support I need to run all the projects on this boat. This whole process was much better than I was expecting, and I recommend this team! Thank you, Andrew.
