Astréa 42 – Perfectly-sized catamaran

Fountaine Pajot builds on nearly 45 years of catamaran excellence to conceive the Astréa 42, a yacht that makes their philosophy of sharing a full life at sea a tangible reality. Building on the success of the Saona 47, the she boasts many of the same features and amenities as her larger sister, including the recognizable inverted bow that’s become a trademark of the series.

As the perfectly-sized sailing catamaran with impressive space, exceptional performance and customizable options, it’s not surprising that the Astréa 42 has garnered widespread acclaim and has become a best-seller in the range.
