Fountaine Pajot MY 44, SANTA DUET

Broker’s Comments

Meet SANTA DUET – a pristine 2019 example of the award-winning Fountaine Pajot MY 44. She is the result of a refined design collaboration that produced one of the finest power catamarans Fountaine Pajot has ever built. Berthon International is delighted to present SANTA DUET to the market. Currently lying in an exceptional cruising location in Montenegro and offered attractively ex. VAT, she represents a rare opportunity that the discerning buyer will immediately recognise.

Her unique IPS propulsion system – the only installation of its kind in the MY range – delivers outstanding fuel efficiency, exceptional wave-slicing stability, and precise, confident manoeuvrability that truly must be experienced to be appreciated. With a range exceeding 1,000 nautical miles and just 885 engine hours, she is lightly used, well run-in, and fully prepared for extended cruising adventures. She has been professionally maintained with a full-time captain. The owners have now made the decision to move on due to evolving yachting commitments, creating an excellent opportunity for her next custodians.

Conceived by the legendary Daniel Andrieu and clothed in the elegance of acclaimed Italian architect Pierangelo Andreani, SANTA DUET is a yacht that commands attention at the dock and delivers impressive performance on the water. The MY 44 is no stranger to the winners’ podium – she has captured three major international awards, including the prestigious Motor Boat Awards, European Powerboat of the Year, and the Asia Boating Award. The world’s press has spoken, and the verdict is unanimous.

Below decks, SANTA DUET spoils her guests royally. Three beautifully appointed guest cabins, each with its own private en suite, deliver hotel-grade comfort with the freedom of the open sea. A separate crew cabin ensures seamless, professional hospitality – perfect for those who wish to cruise with a skipper or host guests in true style. The interior is clean, contemporary, and wonderfully light, with a galley that is genuinely a pleasure to work in, abundant storage, and a flybridge that will become your favourite address on earth.

She is comprehensively equipped to an exceptional standard – from a full Garmin navigation suite with radar, AIS, chartplotters and VHF, to a watermaker, air conditioning with heating, Victron Energy inverter, hydraulic stern platform and gangway, electric anchor, and mooring winches, and even her own Mercury tender. SANTA DUET is not just ready to cruise – she is ready to go right now.

Opportunities like this do not linger. We strongly encourage early viewing.

Designer/Builder’s Comments

Romain Motteau, Deputy CEO of Fountaine Pajot: “We primarily aimed to design an elegant, high-performance boat, with boldly modern lines. We wanted to create a Motor Yacht that would exceed the expectations of the most discerning clients. The MY44 is a triumph due to its myriad features, including an innovative design, spacious interior layout, and state-of-the-art technical inventory, that combine to offer incredible comfort, safety and pleasure at sea. Every living area has been designed for optimal pleasure on board. Its space is remarkable and comparable to that found in a 65-foot monohull.”

Daniel Andrieu, Naval Architect: “My first impression was of how incredibly comfortable she was… I was relaxing in the saloon with a magnificent view of the sunrise. There was very little mechanical noise and you could barely hear the hulls gliding through the water. It felt like I was sitting in a floating lounge.”
