Eleuthra 60

• By Dieter Loibner
• Updated: June 6, 2005

If an executive has worked 20 years for one employer and shown a good hand for the business, his decision to take a well-earned sabbatical shouldn’t surprise anyone. And if he used that time to write a memoir or embark on a leisurely cruise, it would all seem normal enough. These are the things that bring life into focus. What’s rare, though, is the businessman who would take a leave to build a stripped-out raceboat and set off alone, upwind, against the gales of the North Atlantic, as Eric Bruneel recently did. Sailing a purpose-built trimaran in the 2004 Singlehanded Transat race, the 46-year-old managing director of Fountaine Pajot didn’t merely complete the passage from England to Boston; on his first attempt, he won his class and set a new transatlantic record for 50-foot multihulls, slicing more than two days off the existing mark.

Bruneel’s closest competitor in that race was Rich Wilson, who holds the nonstop record from Hong Kong to New York. He trailed Bruneel into Boston by 23 hours. “Eric had an interesting and well-prepared boat,” Wilson said of his rival. “He made good decisions and showed a lot of guts.”

Bruneel’s success in that race may not have brought him the kind of singlehander stardom enjoyed by his countrymen Michel Desjoyeux, Vincent Riou, Jean LeCam, Bruno Peyron, or Yves Parlier, but that wasn’t the point. And while Bruneel’s talent for marketing has surely had something to do with making Fountaine Pajot the most prolific builder of cruising catamarans in the world, he seems to have withheld that talent from promoting his own exploits. What’s clear, though, is that the same instincts that drive the disciplined sailor deeply inform the boats his company builds.

Going Big, Going Small

Last winter, in the balmy southeasterlies that travel across the Gulf Stream from the Bahamas and into Biscayne Bay, I sailed with Bruneel aboard the Eleuthera 60, Fountaine Pajot’s newest flagship. As I saw from the scale of the spacious cat and from several Transat accounts, Bruneel is a man who knows when to go big and when to go small.

“This is the biggest fiberglass structure in the world that’s resin infused in one shot,” Bruneel said of the hull we were standing on. At 60 feet overall length, the Eleuthera is a symbol for how the company and the boats have grown since Fountaine Pajot went into business nearly three decades ago.

Founded in 1976 by Jean-François Fountaine and Yves Pajot (brother of America’s Cup challenger Marc), the Fountaine Pajot yard near La Rochelle, France, initially built racing dinghies: 505s, 470s, and 420s, monohulls all. From there, the yard graduated into IOR Half-Tonners, which twice won the prestigious Figaro solo race. Fountaine Pajot’s entrée into the multihull arena came in 1981, when the yard built Royale, a 60-foot offshore racing trimaran for Loïc Caradec. The company commenced its run of production cats in 1983 with the launch of the first Louisiane, a 37-foot cruising cat of foam-core-sandwich construction.

Eric Bruneel, who holds a degree in accounting, joined the company in 1983, bringing with him the idea for a day-cruising catamaran with simple accommodations that he’d designed with his friend Gildas Cornic; they called it the Corneel 26. That boat went on to earn a Bateaux magazine nomination as boat of the year.

From those beginnings, Fountaine Pajot’s growth through the years has been steady. In 2004, the company employed approximately 400 craftsmen, delivered some 140 boats (ranging from 34 to 75 feet), and reported revenues of 38.5 million euros.

Yet, for all that, it was arguably going small that put Bruneel on the Transat podium. Following the adage that races can be won at the finish but lost before the start, he hedged his bets early. First, he gathered weather data with meteorologist Jean-Yves Bernot–just as the stormy 2002 Route du Rhum race was under way and many of its 60-foot multihulls were forced to retire, several having dismasted or capsized.

“I knew that the Singlehanded Transat was going to be sailed mostly upwind in rough conditions,” said Bruneel, “so I decided to remain conservative by choosing a smaller rig that saved weight and was easier on the skipper with fewer sail changes. We calculated the trade-off in lost sail area and performance and found that it would be less than one day.”

As it turned out, the 2004 Transat was a bruising affair that took the competitors farther north than any other race had in the past. Consistent 50-knot winds and four fronts battered the 33-boat fleet. The long list of Did Not Finishers included some of the best-known names in solo ocean racing. Bernard Stamm’s Cheminées Poujoulat-Amor Lux lost her keel and capsized; Jean-Pierre Dick’s Virbac capsized and dismasted; Vincent Riou’s PRB lost the stick and retired; Dominique Wavre’s Temenos was knocked down twice.

Meanwhile, Bruneel, with his small rig, was sitting pretty. And he made the most of it, keeping his spartan Trilogic moving fast toward Boston, while others fought for survival or repaired the damage their boats had sustained. Because his craft was manageable, Bruneel was able to spend hours down below, hunched over a screen, analyzing weather patterns and planning his next tactical move.

“His decision to use a shorter rig was courageous,” Wilson said, “but absolutely correct in terms of seamanship.”

Double-Digit Fun

On each day of last February’s Miami boat show, between 500 and 600 visitors signed the guest book to board the Eleuthera 60. They were drawn by the boat’s impressive size and by the striking appearance that was shaped by Berret-Racoupeau Yacht Design: oval hull ports, round skylights, a large cockpit with teak sole, and a banquet-sized dinner table.

“We asked Berret-Racoupeau to come up with a bigger boat with a large, comfortable cockpit that accommodates different groups of people who do different things at the same time,” Bruneel said. “Those who sail shouldn’t interfere with lunch and vice versa.”

Most of the crowd had to wait to get a close-up look, but once aboard, they fanned out on deck, turning winches, hopping on the helm seat, or gazing up the 72-foot mast. Below, they opened cupboards and drawers, ran their fingers along the douka-wood surfaces, tried out the plush island berth in the owner’s cabin, and estimated the contents that the huge stainless-steel fridge/freezer could hold. It didn’t take much fantasy to imagine a rollicking party on this boat, accompanied by thumping rhythms, cold drinks, and exotic food.

A few days after the boat show, I joined Bruneel and a couple of others for an overnighter on Biscayne Bay. The conditions were moderate to windy, ideal for some well-paced fun on a big cat. Bruneel left the helm to others yet remained tacitly in charge, even as he trimmed sails or fixed a batten. For me, operating the Eleuthera from the helm station to starboard of the saloon’s aft bulkhead was a treat because of the 360-degree visibility and the lack of clutter. The big cat answered her rudders willingly, a trait that’s promoted by the hulls’ rockered shape and by short keels. The raked windshield offered protection from wind and spray yet didn’t hinder communication with the foredeck. Inside the saloon, the forward-facing nav station to port can be equipped with a remote for the autopilot.

Under main and engine, we headed for the outer Cape Florida Channel, where the depth would give us room to maneuver. As soon as the dangerous shoals lay astern and we bore off on a broad reach, Bruneel suggested the screecher. It was blowing in the low 20s, and he thought that might be a good call to wake everyone up. With the two Yanmar 100-horsepower diesels shut down, Bruneel–working with Philippe Guillemin and Stephane Williamson, partners in Willmar USA, one of four U.S. importers of Fountaine Pajot catamarans–unleashed the 1,300-square-foot headsail. Within seconds, it caught the breeze and sent the 40,000-pound vessel driving across the waves, which grew longer as the sea deepened to indigo. A two-speed electric Harken winch on the cabintop eased the maneuver as we steered to 110-degrees apparent and sheeted her in.

Throughout our sail the saloon was quiet, and the objects on the table–glass, pencil, notepad, camera–resembled a still-life painting by Giorgio Morandi that freezes time and space. No squeaking, creaking, or pounding disturbed the serenity, but a glance out the portlights showed the silhouette of Miami’s towering skyline gliding past a few miles to the west. It was a perfect deceit. The Eleuthera, christened with the Greek word for freedom and in homage to the island that now lay tantalizingly close, just a day’s sail to the east, disguised the rate of progress with her tranquility.

As my mates took turns goosing the boat and celebrated as the speedo reached double digits, I volunteered for the catbird seat forward, hoping for a lukewarm shower from the bow wave. Alas, I was disappointed. More than six feet of freeboard put me out of Poseidon’s reach. Watching smaller craft in the vicinity buck and bounce, their occupants clad in foul-weather gear and holding fast, reminded me how size impacts the ride.

In all fairness, the boat was closer to light-ship displacement than the 3 tons of kit and topped-off tanks of full-on cruising trim. As such, she flew across the waves. The Eleuthera is entertaining and safe because her layout and wide decks provide a solid platform on which to work. She could be sailed by two, although this might get sporty when the breeze is up. I found three to be ideal because it adds a pair of hands and cuts down on the number of trips from one side to the other.

Meanwhile, Bruneel–peering at the patches of the early sunlight and reading the water to windward–was planning our next move. “Let’s jibe and catch some waves,” he said. While he and Guillemin dealt with the screecher, Williamson worked the mainsheet. The battens flopped over, and the Eleuthera gathered steam as we headed up and sheeted her home. A set of large waves lifted her sterns, and a quarter turn on the wheel sent her off on a sleigh ride. The numbers on the speedo clicked past 14.5 knots; Bruneel, who isn’t a loquacious man, acknowledged them with a nod and a smile.

Near dusk, we threaded our way into Biscayne Channel, past Stiltsville’s rickety huts and around a lot of thin water. We were greeted by dolphins that crossed our bows and by jumping stingrays that managed a few feet of air travel before landing with a splat.

When the hook rattled down into 15 feet of water near Cape Florida a few minutes later, it was time to finally enjoy Eleuthera’s inside/outside living arrangements that incorporate saloon and cockpit.

Just behind the bar of the U-shaped galley, there’s room to prepare food for a large, merry gathering. A four-burner Nardi stove and oven with ventilation hood, a double stainless-steel sink, a bar fridge, and room for a dishwasher echo the entertainment possibilities on this spacious cat. The test boat had a stainless-steel CLD freezer/fridge at the bottom of the steps of the starboard hull. The saloon table seats five on the settee, while the cockpit table clearly met its design brief to accommodate eight to 10 al fresco diners.

Fountaine Pajot produces the Eleuthera in five layout versions, three for owners, two for charter. Our boat featured the so-called Orchestra arrangement, with one owner’s stateroom and three guest cabins. In the owner’s cabin, the queen-size island berth with a Bultex foam mattress on wooden slats made me forget the comforts of home. Workaholics will be happy to learn that a laptop fits nicely on the cabin’s desk, with 110-volt power outlet nearby. The foldout vanity mirror is built into that same desk.

Staying Ahead

Conversation with Eric Bruneel inevitably turns to boatbuilding. He built his first boat at the age of 20 and crossed the Atlantic with it a year later. The difference in scale between that project and the Eleuthera could hardly be more impressive. In fact, last winter I visited Fountaine Pajot’s factory in Aigrefeuille, near La Rochelle, and saw for myself the Eleuthera’s staggering dimensions, even in the earliest stages of construction. The reason for this is that both hulls and the bridgedeck are built as one piece, using vacuum bagging and resin infusion.

“We use isophthalic and ortophthalic resins and multidirectional cloth, which is laid down and secured by a special glue before it’s vacuum-bagged and infused with resin,” Bruneel said.

This process employs a closed mold and the use of atmospheric pressure to draw resin through the laminate. It’s more complex and expensive than the traditional method of laminating a hull by hand in an open mold; however, it has several advantages. It traps the emission of volatile organic compounds and drastically reduces the level of toxic styrene, which eliminates the need for exchanging heated air throughout the laminating shop. The laminate quality remains constant from boat to boat, and the labor and materials are reduced. “This method saves weight and produces a stiff structure,” Bruneel said, “but above all, it’s cleaner and healthier for the workers and the environment.” The 2002 implementation of close-molded construction, beginning with Fountaine Pajot’s Lavezzi 40, is still another example of Bruneel’s ability to sight down the course and anticipate the shifts. In this case, he’s kept a keen eye on European Union regulations and focused on one thing: being prepared.

Since Bruneel became managing director of Fountaine Pajot in 1992, there have been many shifts along the course indeed. Looking ahead, he emphasized the importance of meeting the International Organization for Standardization’s coveted ISO 9001:2000 standard, a set of guidelines that measure a company’s commitment to quality, process, and resource management; employee competence; product design; processes to resolve customer complaints; and monitoring customer perception about the quality of goods and services delivered. Obtaining this certification is a lengthy and expensive process, but it’s a stamp of approval that carries considerable weight. “We are the first French boatyard to obtain ISO 9001,” Bruneel said. “It’s internationally recognized and shows our customers, many of whom are in manufacturing, how we conduct business.”

Like many other businesses, Fountaine Pajot has been compelled to adapt to the global market. Indeed, his company learned some harsh cross-cultural lessons during a 2003 California product-liability court case that resulted in a $3.25 million judgment against the company. That case has since been settled, but it was bitter while it lasted. “Today more than 1,500 Fountaine Pajot cats are in operation worldwide,” said Bruneel, “and our employees, even if they don’t speak a foreign language, understand the international nature of our business. They have learned to deal with different cultures and demands.”

Asked about the course he’s charted for Fountaine Pajot, Bruneel said he plans to double the company’s revenue over the next five years. He’ll focus on specific market segments for production boats above and below 500,000 euros and on such custom projects as fast ferries and the buoy tenders for the America’s Cup 2007.

To him, managing growth and improving processes are survival strategies in a time when cost control and stringent environmental regulations are transforming the industry.

“It’s going to be difficult to be small,” Bruneel predicted.

The Artist’s Touch

The layout arrangements within Fountaine Pajot’s lines carry such names as Duo, Maestro, Concerto, and the aforementioned Orchestra–names to which Bruneel is partial. Landlocked in Lyon, near the center of France, Bruneel’s parents instilled in him a love of the outdoors and an interest in music. They sent him to a local conservatory, where he refined his skills as a flute player and recorded with the school orchestra. He still plays piano whenever he gets the chance, and he arranged to have Didier Lockwood, a renowned jazz violinist, perform at the christening ceremony for the first Eleuthera.

As any musician knows, a performance such as the one he delivered in last year’s Transat deserves an encore. What will be Bruneel’s? At press time, he was preparing for the 2005 Fastnet race and the 2006 Route du Rhum. “We’ll take the same approach,” he says. “The RdR starts in November in St.-Malo and later hooks into the trades, so this, too, will be a windy affair.”

While her skipper is scheming and researching his best options, Trilogic is earning money in charter for corporate-incentive trips in and around La Rochelle. One challenge for the guests is to break the boat’s top speed on record, which stands at 27.2 knots.

Until his next race, Bruneel is tending to the fortunes of Fountaine Pajot. “I love all aspects of the job,” he said. “The design, the construction, and the sailing. It’s an art, because you are really creating. But it’s also like racing. It’s a very important and serious race, one you can’t afford to lose.”

Fontaine Pajot Eleuthera 60

As the Fountaine Pajot shipyard was found by a distinguished sailor and well-known competitor, Jean François Fountain , it would be expected them to produce fast yachts. The shipyard made its reputation among racing sailing boats from their foundation in 1976 until 1983 when the management decided o invest in the yachting market. They focused mainly on catamarans in yachting market launching more or less successful models, intended to be sold to charter companies as well as to individuals.

In 2004 the Fountaine Pajot Catamarans range got a new flagship, the Eleuthéra 60, born from a new collaboration with boat architects Berret-Racoupeau . This yacht was very quickly appreciated by the customers due to its sailing performances along with a high level of comfort. Its large cockpit with teak floor and a banquet-size dinner table amazed the crowd when the yacht was presented in 2004. The excitement remained when they entered a large saloon with another table, a sofa, chart table and a spacious kitchen behind the bar.

The model I have sailed several times is equipped with four double bedrooms with own toilets and showers. The entire interior has a standing height while all bedrooms are equipped with independent LCD monitors, hi-fi systems and air conditioners . The boat is meant to sail with skipper and one mariner who found their accommodation inside bows of both hulls. The high comfort of this yacht is emphasized by large refrigerator and freezer along with dishwasher, laundry machine, ice maker, water maker and a large water tank. Mariner mentioned above is usually a great chef who takes care about the provision and keeps fridges full as well as customers’ stomachs. Such machinery is powered by a strong set of service batteries while a powerful generator hops in to support the system. Such set allows Eleuthéra 60 long distance sailing as well as the large autonomy while island hopping and partying in deserted locations.

For those who like sails and the sound of wind excitement starts when a large mainsail gets to the top of the mast. The yachts starts show her temper when the skipper and his associate trim the 130 m2 mainsail and the 70 m2 jib . Those ‘curtains’ are supported by the 120 m2 gennaker if needed. When the crew is in a special mood, the performance like making circles around ‘standard’ charter catamarans is performed just to show that a catamaran could also be a sailing beast.

This yacht is equipped with two mighty 75 hp Volvos , rarely used when cruising because it is disgraceful to use them if there is more than 8 kts of wind. They are usually pretty useful when maneuvering in narrow marinas – a lot of power is required to maneuver such tonnage and size. I found rather high bows quite useful while sailing and cutting rough sea, but they become problematic during maneuvers when side-wind gets their large surface. But, at the end of the day, isn’t it the case with all catamarans?

Nevertheless, the list of advantages of Eleuthéra 60 is way longer than the one of her disadvantages which makes this yacht favorite one for those who like leisure, tough sailing with a touch of exclusivity.

I wish you a calm sea, a fine wind and a strong mast!

Fountaine Pajot Eleuthera

Starting from her introduction in the Fall of 2004, the Eleuthera 60 became Fountaine Pajot's flagship and instant success. As one of the largest one-piece infusion composite structures in the world, this catamaran not only enjoys the 30-year experience from the world's oldest multihull builder, but also a bulletproof construction, which will assure longevity and good resale value. As with all Fountaine Pajot cruising catamarans, emphasis is placed on excellent sailing performance, reliability of the ship's systems and ease of handling by a couple. The Eleuthera 60's overhanging coach roof reduces sun glare and heat, contributing to her good looks and has become the trademark of the entire line of Fountaine Pajots from 35 to 75 feet. As one of the best values on the market the Eleuthera 60 is available in 4 interior versions, of which one is shown below.

GEMINI 105Mc

The Gemini 105Mc is a phenomenon. With close to 1,000 boats sold in the last decade, Tony Smith and his family have dedicated their lives to the production of one the most practical and cost-efficient catamarans. The Gemini 105, which is built near Annapolis, MD features centerboards which can absorb minor impacts by retracting. A masthead rig with a large genoa keeps the mainsail size manageable and also permits the mast to be placed farther aft for better balance. The Gemini's smart features, such as a hard dodger, integrated bowsprit and circular traveler for the gennaker tack and an innovative yet open layout plan, offer liveaboard couples a practical surrounding. Another outstanding feature of the Gemini is her true ability to ghost into the shallowest harbors. A unique propulsion system consisting of a single 27 HP diesel connected to a "Sillette Sonic Leg" can swing up, just like the liftable rudder, which greatly adds to the safety of this catamaran. If one keeps a conservative eye on payload and does not overload the boat, the Gemini 105 is possibly one of the best pocket-size cruisers available today.

Eleuthera 60 catamaran Croatia

The Eleuthera 60 is the flagship of Fountaine Pajot’s sailing catamaran range in Croatia , and has been designed for the most discerning cruising sailor. The timeless contemporary design features sleek hulls and roof. It is a catamaran that offers a level of comfort spacious accommodation and quality of finish more commonly found in custom designed yachts.

Designed by European architectural firm Berret-Racoupeau, the Eleuthera 60 has been fashioned with long-term comfort in mind to cater for private owners’ use, large families or crew, and private charters for up to twelve people. As you board from the stern you notice that only one hull has a boarding ladder. We were told this was because they want one hull where you can dock a dinghy without risking damage from any stainless steel ladder protrusions.

The aft deck is very large and features a beautiful table and seating arrangement with the helm in a raised position to starboard. All the toys are at your fingertips from this helm seat and your visibility is over the top of the cabin. As you enter the cabin through large glass doors, there is a dining table to port. Just forward of this is access to port hull accommodation area and just forward of this is a large navigation station with ample vision to allow you to helm the boat from indoors by use of the autohelm and radar should the weather turn nasty. In the center of the boat under the large panoramic windows is a large lounging area before the entry down to the starboard hull. All seating is covered in a luscious ultra leather.

There is a large bar styled galley through the aft doors to starboard. The galley is large and again has plenty of natural lighting and vision making for a pleasant cooking environment. There are double stainless steel sinks, dishwasher and stove all in easy access locations. There is also a large fridge and freezer under the bench and ample storage all around. The galley is actually more like a kitchen found in your house. In the hulls there are four large cabins with their own ensuite. Both of the forward cabins have a typical double berth commonly found on cruising catamarans in Croatia but it is when you step into the aft cabins and actually find island berths that you are spellbound. The wider hulls are an obvious advantage in this layout but an aft island berth in a catamaran hull is exceptional. Embark on great catamaran sailing in Croatia!

The Eleuthera 60 offers the level of comfort, spacious accommodation and quality of finish more commonly found in one-off catamarans and large luxury super yachts.

- The experience of the MARQUISES 56… The Eleuthera 60 is born out of the experience gained by Fountaine Pajot in the construction of 1200 cruising catamarans, particularly the Marquises 56 which the yard has been building for 10 years. Her overall length has been increased beyond that of the well known Marquises 56! This retains the yachts proportions but also means that the two hulls are wider and roomier to easily provide for island-beds in the aft cabins. The fore cabins are also wider in the new yacht. The Fountain Pajot Eleuthera 60 with her elegant lines and fast hull offers many special innovative features: In the design particular emphasis has been given to the facility of movement aboard, particularly when moving between saloon and cockpit, cockpit and deck as well as between the deck and the tender via the large stern transoms. Large picture windows also ensure superb light and excellent visibility outside while the cabins are protected from the direct rays of the sun.

The layout and design of her the saloon, cockpit and private spaces in the hulls stimulates great social moods as well as seclusion and privacy for quiet moments of contemplation and relaxation. The main saloon provides guests with superior colorful panoramic views of Italy and the Mediterranean Sea. Here is a brief summary of the Eleuthera 60 by the nautical architect Berret – Racoupeau Yacht Design. Strong points: Elegance, Performance, Comfort, Conviviality between the outside/inside, Safety. HER EXTERIOR She offers a big yacht appearance with great yachts style. The cockpit terrace makes possible to easily to move around the boat without any need to disturb those in the seating area or helming station. Being a catamaran she is incredibly stable to walk around. She also has and open easy access to swimming in the sea off the stern, thanks to large transoms close to the water. She has an ergonomic deck layout which allows the crew to maneuver the yacht without disturbing charter guests in the cockpit. The original touch of a bimini top forms part of the design and protects the whole of the cockpit, including the person at the helm. You will be able to steer the yacht yourself if you wish – just ask the captain. She offers a totally transparent roof (windshield and aft facing) giving amazing visibility and the impression of a single living area from the exterior cockpit and the interior saloon.

We take pride in our happy customers

Your team delivered on every mark. You’ve got an amazing broker in Mark Wattrus and I’m confident you will have continued success moving forward together. He was available 24/7 whenever I had questions. We had a great initial visit on the boat and his marketing plan and photos were superb

I bought a yacht that I had never seen. I did this because I trusted my broker Andrew Holland. It was not an easy job for Andrew, as I am an experienced boat builder and owner of previous yachts, but work in West Africa. Imagine how hard it was to communicate what I was looking for. Andrew came up with exactly what I wanted. He dealt with time delays, all my questions at odd hours, and was there for the survey. He reported honestly and professionally. After buying the yacht, I arrived at the boat on a Sunday night, after dark, after travelling from West Africa to the Caribbean, and found it was better than expected. He never pulled punches and made me aware of shortfalls. I expected to spend my one month leave working on the boat, but actually spent less than one week, and was able to spend 3 weeks sailing – wonderful bonus.

Thank you Andrew for putting up with all my questions, all my worries and all my crazy out of the time zone concerns – you were totally professional, but also I know that if and when we meet up, it will be like a friend finally meeting. You are always welcome on Aseka.

— Beverly Cory

Outstanding company with professional subject matter experts. If I were to buy or sell cruising sailboat, particularly a catamaran, Andrew would be my go to broker.

I have been sailing since I was a child and attended Massachusetts Maritime Academy. But when my wife and I began the process of purchasing an ocean cruising/racing catamaran, I realized that this is a world unto itself. Obviously, we needed to find someone knowledgeable to help us make an informed decision. More importantly, we needed someone honest and willing to put our interests before his or her own. I was lucky to work with Phil Berman at The Multihull Company. He repeatedly shunned the fast buck, choosing instead to work the long road to connect us with the “perfect boat”. I would be glad to recommend Phil and his company to anyone planning to purchase or sell a performance sailing machine.

— Eric Boutiette

Andrew Hodgdon was our broker when we bought our 2018 Lagoon 450F in Antigua in April 2922. He provided great service and was very attentive to our needs. We would highly recommend Andrew and the Multihull Company.

But I have some questions re suitability for ocean crossings and the build strenght. Would appreciate any opinons Cheers 11-03-2008, 08:33   Boat: 56' Fountaine Pajot Marquises also but it doesn't have a ridgid top . It would also be difficult to handle with two sailors. Have you looked at the St. Francis 50? 11-03-2008, 10:41   Boat: 1994 Solaris Sunstream 40 is - well, an incredibly artful and effiicient design. I have no personal experience with the Eleuthera 60, although the bridgedeck clearance of most FP's is adequate (or better). Their smaller do have a reputation for rather 'light' construction, although FP apparently uses state of the art finite stress analysis in finalyzing their designs and construction. I have little doubt that one would be capable of a , although there are both faster (but smaller) and more solid (but smaller) cats available in the same range. Brad 11-03-2008, 12:11   Boat: sold monohul 58. I was impressed with the Elenthera's volume with in the hulls, and undersatnd that this volume gives her good load carring capacity. Brda thanks to you also, this is my concern, it appears to me that FP make light cat's. I am not an expert on construction so I am wondering if the lightness is due to structual short comings or because the construction technique makes light . Tha major appeal to me is the volume of this yacht so while I am sure their are faster cats but do they have tha same area to store suppliers and ? 11-03-2008, 12:17   Boat: Catana 471 buying/outfitting , and any other specific considerations you have? Then more specific recommendations could be made. What different cats have you sailed? Dave 11-03-2008, 13:25   Boat: 50ft mono hull. SOLD!! 11-03-2008, 15:37   Boat: sold monohul 40. We absolutly love sailing on a cat the living spaces are to die for not mention sailing level!! We have who will travel with us most if not all the time. Our is ample to a Eleuthera and fit her out. We are fortunate to have a busines that allows us to run it from any where. We are planning tis advenuter to begin in 24-36s months I am trying to get a feel from other peoples experience on how these boats compare to similar size cats in terms of their comparmise from performance to comfort in the living spaces and what is the perception of them as they age? Thanks Erik I have seen that article is in my cat scrapbook! 11-03-2008, 15:54   Boat: Catana 471 and for a notch above (in my opinion). (But you may find your needs best met by a custom .) A measure of "perception of them as they age" for the production cats can be made by observing resale values on yachtworld.com of the various builders. Dave 11-03-2008, 16:59   Boat: sold monohul , there are a couple of things that didn't suit me. The hulls are narrower so the cabins don't have the roomy feel of the Eleuthera which I was able to board straight after. Also I am not keen on the unsheltered more from sun than rain view. Also can you explain why a Catana is a better performer given that it is heavier. I presume the dagerboards would give it the windward performance, but what about down ? I am thinking a light wide against heavier narrower hulls? I know I sound like an idiot, but I am trying to figure all this out so not to do something I regret. cheers 11-03-2008, 18:12   Boat: Radford 450 45' Vamoose . The workmanship is tops and it shows. I was a bit surprised when I was told that it is extremely noisy under sail. The owner says that the slapping the hulls and the under can be deafening to the point he and his wife wear ear plugs. They believe this to be true for all cats.The owners wife also claims she cannot function when under way due to the erratic motion of the boat but does fine on a mono . Today they Sailed from to about a 40 mile sail and said they were tired out from the motion and the , aprox 14kts, left over sea swell and small wind driven waves. 11-03-2008, 20:48   Boat: sold monohul .

Another point I would mention is that you will get a much better from the premium builders than you ever will from the others. A friend who bought a met a guy who had ordered an Eluthera at the factory. They went out for a few beers and even though he was spending in the region of £1mil UKP with FP on the Eluthera he was made to feel like a second class citizen everytime he visited the factory. I would spread your net a bit further if I were you. Just my 2p's worth. Adaero 12-03-2008, 05:21   Boat: Catana 471 What is it about Catana's that you like? I was on one last weekend, and while is is a beautiful piece of , there are a couple of things that didn't suit me.

Usually I find the motion in a monohul at sea very fun and harmonious, but after a few days annoying as it is hard to live having to grab handhold to handhold just to move from one part of the to another. I find the multi hull, which I admit not having all that much experience, has a more akward, less than gracefull motion, but less of it, so functioning is much easier. The dolphin seems to have the perfect layout for a . Instead of 2 heads in each hull, there is one in each hull, and a couple of little bunks for . Very nice. And, I like the daggerboard design. 12-03-2008, 10:59   Boat: Harbor 20, Seawind 1370 (2024) Thread Tools Rate This Thread : Posting Rules post new threads post replies post attachments edit your posts is are code is are are are Similar Threads Thread Thread Starter Forum Replies Last Post slomotion Multihull Sailboats 9 08-08-2007 18:50 - - - - - - - Privacy Guaranteed - your email is never shared with anyone, opt out any time.
