Our family rented a 40 ft Lucia Pajot catamaran from Autremer Concept in Le Marin, Martininque in late December 2023. The office staff in Autremer was very nice and helpful in all areas. The briefing was very complete, and the boat was clean. Our sail around Martinique had no accidents. Even so, Marenauta’s offer to us was a 2020 40 foot Lucia Pajot catamaran and we were given a 2018 model which had been used so many times that different items inside and outside were broken or off their hinges. On our sail, the hose in the outside shower sprouted a hole and we lost precious fresh water. The windlass with the anchor lost a bolt (bolt was already loose) and we had to stand on the box to not lose the anchor. One of the toilets’ tank and overflow tank had not been flushed out in so much time that the toilet got clogged up and we flushed out the excrement for a good long time. The gage to measure the fresh water tank did not work. The boat looked un-kept, but it was clean. The design of the boat is great and even has a salt water faucet in the kitchen sink to wash dishes. The navigational equipment worked just fine. Our only observation is that the boat lacked good upkeep.
Nice trip in Cyclades.
Good service of charter company.
New sailing yacht, very comfortable, good sailing performance.
Outhaul of furling mainsail to be rectified by next season.
