Ownership & History
This Fountaine Pajot Lucia 40 has had a carefully documented and responsible ownership history.
She was originally purchased new in the United Kingdom by her first owner, who retained the yacht for approximately six months. She was then sold to a second private owner, who kept the vessel for around 18 months. In 2019, the yacht entered a joint ownership structure and has since been maintained and enjoyed by her current owners.
Up to 2019, the yacht sailed primarily in UK waters before transitioning to more extensive cruising.
In 2023, Wanderlust successfully completed an Atlantic crossing, after which she spent approximately one year in the Caribbean, including a six-month period ashore in Grenada for maintenance and care.
In May 2025, the yacht was professionally shipped to Palma de Mallorca and subsequently sailed to mainland Spain, where she is currently based in Barcelona.
The vessel was originally purchased in the UK with VAT paid there. She departed UK waters in June 2023 (post-Brexit) and is now in Europe under Temporary Admission status, meaning EU VAT has not been paid.
The owners are now offering the yacht for sale due to a change in personal circumstances, as one of the partners already owns another vessel in the UK, marking the beginning of a new chapter.

Chuck at The Multihull Company is the real deal.
He helped us find our Lagoon 40 after genuinely listening to what we needed, not just what he had to sell. He let us visit the boat multiple times, answered every question honestly, and helped us make a confident decision on a major purchase.
What impressed us most was the post-sale support. Once the paperwork was signed, Chuck was still picking up the phone, offering referrals, and helping us work through the early stages of liveaboard life. That kind of follow-through is rare.
If you are looking for a multihull and want someone who knows the boats and actually cares about the outcome, Chuck is the person to call.
We just purchased a 2025 Nautitech 44 Open with The Multihull Company. The process of getting here has been great, and we could not have asked for a better agent. We worked with Conor, whom we met at the 2025 Cannes Boat Show. We started our search for a cruising catamaran in Florida at the beginning of the year. We spent a couple of months looking at different boats/models within our price range and quickly narrowed it down to what really mattered to us, in part thanks to the wealth of knowledge and expertise our broker provided. When we found a perfect match in Montenegro, Conor and The Multihull Company did not hesitate to continue supporting us and to lead the efforts from start to finish with great care and transparency. Communication and support have been outstanding throughout this entire process. Conor, in particular, showed great compassion and care, going above and beyond to ensure that no stone was left unturned and that we would be able to safely and happily sail off into our big adventure.
A sale well handled. No inflated expectations and an honest opinion throughout. Highly recommended.
Absolutely THE ONLY company to use for buying or selling a catamaran! Our Broker Andrew Hodgdon, was excellent to work with, an experienced catamaran captain with extensive knowledge of sailing catamarans, the ins and outs of the construction, performance, systems, everything involved and life on board catamarans. All of which is invaluable in looking for the right boat for someone to buy or helping market your boat when selling. The Multihull Company is so connected in the catamaran world and used by so many catamaran sailors and searchers that we had an interested buyer before our boat was even listed and a completed sale 60 days after her first showing!!! Thanks Andrew and all of the Multihull team who worked diligently to make it happen so smoothly!
We had a great experience working with Andrew! He was extremely knowledgeable and listened to our needs of what we wanted our next boat to be. He responded quickly to all of our requests and got us to the finish line. Working with Multihull was seamless and we highly recommend using Andrew and Multihull.
