2018FountainePajotLucia40

Interior Accommodations and Layout Open the wide sliding glass door and the cockpit and saloon become one level living space. Fountaine Pajot kept the styling clean and European, with light oak Alpi joinery, soft toned bulkheads and panoramic glazing that fills the boat with daylight and makes her feel much bigger than 40 feet. Interior Walk-Through Saloon, Galley and Navigation Station The galley sits aft to port, right by the door, so whoever is cooking can chat with guests at the cockpit table or inside. Forward and to starboard, a U shaped settee wraps the dining table and seats six for dinner with a view out the forward glass. The nav station is tucked forward to port with the main electrical panel, generator controls and VHF close at hand. A 32” TV on a swing arm with a Bose subwoofer, a dedicated reverse cycle heat and air unit, removable interior window shades and two Caframo fans round out the space. Starboard Hull: Owner’s Suite (Maestro Layout) A few easy steps down from the saloon, a sliding door closes off a private suite that runs the full length of the hull. The island queen berth is aft, with drawers underneath and a long hull window right at the waterline. Midships there is a desk and vanity with a bookshelf, hanging lockers and deep wardrobes, and the owner’s head with its separate shower stall fills the bow. The suite has its own 12,000 BTU reverse cycle heat and air unit. Port Hull: Guest Cabins and Shared Head The port companionway leads to two double guest cabins, one aft and one forward, with the shared guest head and shower between them. Each cabin has its own hanging locker, hull window, opening hatch and Caframo fan, and the port hull has its own 12,000 BTU reverse cycle heat and air unit. Interior Styling and Additional Features: • Cabinetry and Joinery: Light oak Alpi woodwork in a satin finish, set against soft toned bulkheads that bounce natural light around the boat. • Flooring: Teak look synthetic sole throughout the saloon and cabins, warm underfoot and easy to keep clean. • Upholstery: Stain resistant marine grade taupe vinyl over high density foam. • Countertops: Resin composite counters in the galley and both heads with molded drip edges and polished stainless fixtures. • Panoramic Saloon Glazing: Wraparound vertical windows give a full view of the anchorage from the settee, while the coachroof overhang keeps the midday sun off the glass. • Hatches and Skylights: Flush opening deck hatches and tinted overhead skylights bring in light and keep a breeze moving through the boat. • Hull Windows: Long horizontal hull windows with opening portlights put sea level views in every cabin. • LED Lighting: Warm white recessed overheads, courtesy step lights and indirect accent lighting for evenings aboard. • Heat and Air: (3) Dometic reverse cycle units: 12,000 BTU in each hull plus a dedicated saloon unit. • Fans: (6) Caframo fans: two in the saloon, two in the owner’s suite and one in each guest cabin. MAIN SALOON The saloon is the heart of CAVU. It sits level with the cockpit through the sliding glass door, has generous headroom and is surrounded by vertical windows for a true 360 degree view. • L Shaped Galley (Aft Port): Right beside the cockpit door, so it serves the saloon table and the cockpit table equally well. Full details under Galley below. • Dining and Lounge (Starboard Forward): A U shaped settee wraps a central dining table that seats six, with views out the forward and side windows. • Navigation Station (Port Forward): Chart desk, main AC/DC breaker panels and generator start/stop controls just forward of the galley. • Entertainment: 32” smart TV on a swing arm and a Bose subwoofer. • Comfort: Dometic reverse cycle heat and air unit, removable interior window shades and (2) Caframo fans. • Hull Access: Companionways on each side lead down to the owner’s suite to starboard and the guest cabins to port. MASTER STATEROOM The whole starboard hull belongs to the owners. A sliding door at the foot of the companionway closes it off, and the space is laid out in three zones from aft to forward: sleeping, dressing and office, and the en suite head. • Island Queen Berth: Fore and aft queen with walkaround access, nightstands, reading lights, LED accent lighting and deep drawers below. A wide hull window with opening portlight and an overhead hatch bring in light and air. • Desk and Dressing Area: Built in desk and vanity with shelving and a reading light, plus full height hanging lockers, shelved cupboards and soft close drawers with room for a liveaboard wardrobe. • Entertainment: 26” TV with DVD player. • Comfort and Power: Dometic 12,000 BTU reverse cycle heat and air unit, (2) Caframo fans and a combination AC outlet with USB charger. • En Suite Head: Owner’s head with separate shower stall in the bow (details below). Master Head Taking up the entire forward end of the starboard hull, the owner’s head is the kind of bathroom you rarely find on a 40 foot catamaran, with separate areas for the vanity, the toilet and the shower. • Vanity: Long resin composite counter with integrated basin and chrome mixer, a large mirror over shelved cabinets, and storage below. • Electric Freshwater Head: Quiet electric freshwater flush toilet plumbed to a 12 gallon holding tank with deck pump out and overboard discharge. • Separate Shower Stall: Fully enclosed behind a clear acrylic door with an adjustable chrome shower wand, corner shelf, teak grate and automatic sump pump, so the rest of the head stays dry. • Ventilation and Lighting: Opening deck hatch and sealed recessed LED downlights.

Construction and Key Features of the Hull and Deck HULL Fountaine Pajot builds the Lucia 40 with vacuum infusion, which gives a stiff, light hull with a consistent glass to resin ratio.
