The 4 cabin’s bareboat catamaran Fountaine Pajot Lucia 40 was built in 2018 and it is docked in Saint-Mandrier-sur-Mer, France. The Fountaine Pajot Lucia 40 (2018) can accommodate up to 8 people in 4 cabins and it has 4 toilets. The overall length of the boat is 38 ft / 11,7 m. The main equipment (find the complete list on the ’Equipments’ tab): bow thruster, GPS chart plotter, bathing platform, dinghy, air condition and it’s obligatory extras: handling fees, starter pack, final cleaning, essentials pack. The main sail is full batten. You can check-in from 17:00 h and check-out until 09:00 h.
Why charter this Fountaine Pajot Lucia 40
4 cabins for 8 berths means about 2 guests per cabin, so bag storage and sleeping turns are clear before departure. 2 guests per head matters on early marina mornings, when showers, breakfast and casting off compete for time. At 11,7 m, this catamaran works best when swim stops still leave time for the evening berth.
Best charter fit
Fountaine Pajot Lucia 40 suits crews comparing cabin separation, luggage storage and bathroom timing across 4 cabins and 4 heads. The catamaran beam is useful at anchor, but marina planning needs wider berth options and earlier docking choices.
Toulon Bay and the Îles d’Hyères from Saint-Mandrier
Saint-Mandrier sits on its own spit inside the great naval Bay of Toulon, so the first decision is simply how soon to leave the roadstead: a late handover ties up at La Seyne for the night, while an early one clears the bay and makes Porquerolles by the afternoon. Toulon-Hyères Airport (TLN) is a 15–30-minute road transfer, the closest of the Riviera gateways. East lies the week’s cruising in the Îles d’Hyères, the open water off the Giens peninsula the stretch to time for a calm day, so plan the turn to leave a short last reach back into the sheltered bay. The alternative runs west into the Marseille calanques, or on east along the Côte d’Azur, both longer coastal runs, better kept for a longer charter.
