About
Fountaine Pajot Mahe 36 Evolution: Performance, Comfort, Adventure!
This catamaran has been Rhode Island-based since new, making its maiden voyage on her own hull from France to Massachusetts immediately after commissioning. With only two owners, the first kept her lightly used in and around Narragansett Bay, RI. The current owner has sailed her extensively, using her for snowbird journeys between summers in Rhode Island and winters in the Bahamas and Virgin Islands. Ideal for cruising the ICW and Bahamas, she features a shallow 3.5-foot draft, a 58-foot air draft, and widely spaced engines that provide excellent handling under power. Her bluewater capabilities have been thoroughly proven, and with minimal preparation, she could confidently tackle ocean crossings. The current owner, a professional sailor and instructor, is available to offer training or delivery services for the new owner.
Design and Accommodations:
Renowned designer team Joubert/Nivelt brought their expertise to the Mahe 36, crafting sleek hulls that excel in performance while maintaining catamaran stability. The narrow waterline beams enhance speed and upwind ability, while the hulls flare out above the waterline to provide comfortable living space and added buoyancy. This blend of performance and comfort ensures the Mahe 36 can handle both spirited coastal cruising and challenging offshore conditions. The boat's resin-infused fiberglass construction, complete with watertight bulkheads fore and aft, offers durability and peace of mind for long-term adventures. Paired with twin 30-horsepower Volvo diesels positioned aft for quiet operation, the boat moves effortlessly under power and sails impressively, reaching over 9 knots on a close reach in moderate conditions.
Below deck, this Mahe 36 Evolution is configured in the desirable three-cabin, one-head layout, perfect for families or small groups. The starboard hull is dedicated to the owner's suite, featuring a spacious queen berth and abundant storage. The port hull houses two cabins, a queen and a double, ideal for guests or crew. The bright and airy salon connects seamlessly to the cockpit through large sliding doors, creating an inviting social space with panoramic views. The hard-top and full enclosure provide a comfortable environment in both sunny and inclement weather. A well-equipped galley makes meal preparation a pleasure, while the head, located forward in the starboard hull, includes a modern design and a separate shower for added convenience. From its efficient layout to its comfortable amenities, this catamaran is perfectly suited for extended cruising.

We had a great purchasing experience with The Multihull Company. Got us into the boat we really wanted, our broker Josie was amazing, she walked us through the entire process, negotiated the deal we wanted and gave us great advice throughout. If you are looking to purchase a boat we can’t recommend them enough.
It’s been a few weeks now and the dust has settled. We had a great experience with the Multihull Company and in particular our broker, Caroline Laviolette. Caroline was happy to share her knowledge of the market and the catamarans we were interested in purchasing. She was patient and thorough as we looked at several boats in SE Florida, helped us narrow our search and eventually purchase a beautiful 2017 Lagoon 42. Many thanks to the team at The Multihull Company!
We had a great experience purchasing our boat with Will Miller as a buyers agent. Purchasing our first large Cat is a daunting experience and Will was able to walk us through the process with ease. Will was very straight forward and constantly gave us honest feedback as well as finding and pointing out details on all the boats that we may not have noticed or thought about.
We had a great experience and would use them again.
I would specifically recommend a buyers agent when purchasing to help weed through a lot of problems and misrepresented boats on the market.
We have had great experiences with the Multihull company. We both sold our old boat through them, and bought our new boat through them. I have to say that Will Miller is top-notch, and Riley was great as our broker for selling our O day 39. when you buy a Salt or Boat through them, I feel like you are not only clients, but you are friends. The lines of communication were always open and we were always informed of everything going on.
Successful relationships cannot exist without it. At The Multihull Company we base every relationship on a firm commitment to earning and retaining our client’s trust.
Advice of any kind is valuable only when grounded in hard-won expertise. It too, must be trustworthy. Trust and expertise define the heart and soul of The Multihull Company. We are a team of skilled professionals who thrive on providing expert, trustworthy advice and service to catamaran and trimaran sailors around the globe.
