2018 FP Lucia 40 Four Cabin / Two Head Quatuor Version
The Lucia 40 is an upgrade from the popular Lipari 41. The smallest catamaran designed by Berret-Raccoupea, it is geared toward couples, single handing and families. This is a well thought-out catamaran from the French luxury boat builders, Fountain Pajot.
Stepping aboard on the generous sugar scoops, youll notice how spacious the cockpit is on this boat. With seating for eight at the table, a lounging sofa tucked under the stairs and upholstered bench seating aft plenty of room for evening sundowers with friends!
Just two steps up to the helm station from the cockpit, you are never too far away from the action. Plenty of visibility all around, view of the sails and all the lines leading right back to the helm station. Two more steps and you have access to the boom and sails.
Its easy to move around the wide weather deck with flush hatches and ample grab rails for safety. There is more lounging space forward with the large trampoline area and tanning real estate.
Inside, the double sink faces toward the cockpit for serving. The oven is eye level making it easy on the cook with the three burner stove just to the right. The nav station is tucked in the corner facing forward with the panel just below next to the stairs. The L shaped sofa is comfortable with a adjustable table for dining or cocktails. Plent of natural light and near 360-degree views. The two-drawer fridge is reaching distance from both the cockpit and galley area.
This is the charter version with four cabins and two heads. This configurations gives plenty of room in the heads for a desirable separate shower. The forward cabins a v berth variation and the aft cabins have the more spacious island style beds.
Because of her smaller size, she is easy to manuver but has a comfortable home-like feel at anchor. If you are looking for a home on the water that can sail and has room enough for your family and friends, the Lucia is a great value for the money.
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.
Riley, and the entire staff at The Multihull Company, were incredibly helpful and responsive in helping me find and purchase my catamaran. I was a first time purchaser and had many questions about the process and Riley was very responsive in answering those questions. I would recommend The Multihull Company to anyone in the market to purchase or sell their boat.
