Meet: 2009 Fountaine Pajot Orana 44 "Saya"

***2022 Survey Available for Serious buyers***

 "Saya" is a popular Owner's Version ("Maestro") Catamaran from the well-respected French factory, Fountaine Pajot and the world-famous design team of Joubert - Nivelt.  The first thing you notice when you board this vessel is the curves. From the steps aft to the port holes forward, to cabinetry throughout you do not have to worry about stabbing a hip bone under way. Honestly, I don't know why more builders don't make this happen. So, that give you an idea about the build quality of this boat. Yes, it's a production boat but they put lots of love into it, too.

The double lounging space greets you starboard and is a great reading spot in the shade with a friend. Wow! And room for the whole anchorage for sundowners in the spacious cockpit. The elevated semi-flybridge helm station seats two {maybe three) and allows for conversation with the party below. All the sail lines (except the halyards) lead to the helm for easy single-handed sailing.  There is plenty of elbow room for winching starboard of the helm for a helpful crew member. Visibility from the helm is excellent!

Transition from the cockpit to the saloon is seamless with no steps or obstructions but there is a hidden. covered well for sea splashes and mop water. The double-door to the saloon enlarges the outdoor living space. The galley is conveniently located starboard for easy prep, serving and being a part of the crowd. Ventilation is provided above the sink area but far enough away not to interfere with the stove top flame. Thank you, Jouber - Nivelt! There is also air available from two front port holes and corner fans. Lots of prep space, serving space and storage in this efficient u-shaped kitchen.

The owner's side has an island style bed and two reading lights. This means you do not have to crawl all over the sheets just to make the bed or disturb your neighbor to turn on the light. The bathroom has a separate shower to keep things dry. Forward, is a well-organized storage area or workshop. The guest cabins have semi-island style beds meaning one side has easy access, which is not common in a lot of 44 ft. boats. Also, the heads have their own separate showers as well. The sleeping areas have so many cubby holes for stashing shoes, clothing, books or just keeping reading glasses within easy reach.

On deck, the windows are tapered to avoid trip traps when going forward to quickly grab a line or catch a mooring ball. There is a huge access point for the anchor windlass and lounging room on the trampoline to watch the stars at night. The sturdy coach roof holds the solar panels and gives you access to the main sail as needed.

AND this boat has a washing machine! This might not seem like a lot but if you have spent any time washing in a bucket, you will be living in the lap of luxury with a washing machine!

 Saya is waiting for you on the tropical island of Grenada in the Southern Caribbean - just where you want to start living your dream! Grenada has direct flights from major cities around the world and enjoys the sweet Trade winds all year long. The broker has personally sailed on this boat and happy to answer any questions about this boat or sailing in the Caribbean.
