Why charter this Fountaine Pajot Saona 47 Quintet - 5 + 1 cab.
5 cabins for 10 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 13,9 m, this catamaran works best when swim stops still leave time for the evening berth.
Best charter fit
Fountaine Pajot Saona 47 Quintet - 5 + 1 cab. suits crews comparing cabin separation, luggage storage and bathroom timing across 5 cabins and 5 heads. The catamaran beam is useful at anchor, but marina planning needs wider berth options and earlier docking choices.
How far into the Exumas from Nassau
Nassau is the busy hub of the Bahamas, but turn south-east and the Exumas unroll: a 120-mile chain of uninhabited cays over water so clear it seems lit from below, with swimming pigs, iguanas and empty sandbars. Lynden Pindling International Airport (NAS) is a short drive from the marinas. With the boat handed over, Rose Island or Athol Island just east of base give a short shakedown before the commitment south. The week comes down to how far down the chain to go: the northern Exumas are an easy reach and return, but going deeper means more open water between the cays, so keep time in hand for the way back. The central and southern Exumas are another few days’ sailing, better matched to two weeks than to one.
