Fountaine Pajot will host the fourth edition of its Open Days in La Rochelle from July 2 to 4, 2026, giving visitors the chance to tour its sailing catamarans and take sea trials in the Old Harbour.
Over three days, the French builder will present its sailing range and welcome guests aboard the FP41, FP44, FP48, FP51 and FP55. The event is designed for visitors to meet the Fountaine Pajot team, discuss cruising plans and explore future projects.
The 2026 Open Days will also feature the first preview of two new models, the FP48 and FP55. Fountaine Pajot says the catamarans are designed to deliver greater fluidity on board, a stronger connection with the sea and improved comfort both under sail and at anchor. Visitors will be able to see the boats before their world premieres at the Cannes Yachting Festival and test them during sea trials.
Also on display will be the FP41 and FP44, which were unveiled last year and have already received attention from owners and the international boating press.
Fountaine Pajot Yachts line-up includes the new FPY70S
The Open Days will also highlight the Fountaine Pajot Yachts range, with several flagship models gathered in La Rochelle. Among them will be the FPY70S, the newest sailing yacht to join the collection, shown in preview for the first time.
Fountaine Pajot describes the FPY70S as a home on the water, with generous living spaces, smooth movement between areas and a close connection to the sea. The Samana 59 and Thíra 80 will also be on display.
Visitors will be able to step aboard the boats, compare the different models and take sea trials in real sailing conditions. The shipyard team and its international dealer network will be available throughout the event to answer questions and offer guidance, while guests will also have access to exclusive visits of the production facilities in La Rochelle.
