Overview
2012 40' Foutaine Pajot Power Catamaran
Introducing "Beach Cat" a turn key and incredibly well taken care of 2012 40' Foutaine Pajot Power Catamaran. She Features amazing space efficiency and comfort and rivals those of substantially larger motor yachts. "Beach Cat" has been completely refit, to include a multitude of enhancements as well as a new engine, new generator, a recently constructed aluminum frame fly bridge top, all new cushions, new galley appliances, all new Garmin electronics on bridge and in salon.
In summary, "Beach Cat" has been meticulously updated and refined recently to provide an absolute "Turn Key" vessel for long range explorations in an easily handled, sea worthy craft.
Below is a Summary of the Brand and specifically the series and model-
Two new models built by the French builder Fountaine Pajot made their world debut at the 2014 Miami Boat Show. Coined as Trawler Catamarans for long cruising, the Summerland 40 LC and Cumberland 47 LC feature exceptional range and stability for buyers interested in a high quality of life while spending extended time on board.
The Summerland 40 LC's interior was designed with contrasting colors and materials, the combination of which yields a contemporary and casual feel. Walnut woodwork highlighted with leather and white glass for work surfaces in the galley give a rich and comfortable feel. A single-seat helm station provides the skipper with nearly an unencumbered 360-degree view thanks to large hull windows that bring the outside in. Below, the owner's expansive and luxurious stateroom with a transverse bed to starboard has its own private bathroom. Two double cabins with a shared bathroom comprise the port hull.
Inside and outside entertaining and living spaces flow easily on the Cumberland 47 LC, with an aft door that slides open two-thirds of the width. An L-shaped settee doubles as an interior dining area, but owners and guests will most certainly prefer alfresco dining on the aft deck with its sensational view.
Both models feature an expansive and user-friendly flybridge where yet a third dining area can be found on the 47 LC, while a spacious sunpad is on the 40 LC.
Design/Build
Designed by the well-known naval architecture firm of Joubert & Nivelt, the Summerland 40 features sharp bow entries, which very effectively penetrate oncoming waves, a slightly rockered bottom profile, wide rounded aft running surfaces and skegs which house the engine shafts and go deep enough to protect the four-blade propellers and the rudders. The skegs and the bottom structure are strong enough to support the boat should it dry out and rest on the bottom in regions where the tides are significant. In the event that a skeg should ever sheer off, there is a dedicated watertight bulkhead to help prevent flooding of the engine compartment.
Trained fiberglass technicians carefully apply a white ISO gelcoat in a carefully controlled thickness to offer high resistance to UV and yellowing for up to 10 years. Multiple layers of high quality fiberglass and resins are used in a barrier coat to help mitigate osmotic blistering. Resin infusion is used for the remaining layers for both deck and hull molds, giving structures that have higher resin to glass ratios for minimal weight and maximum strength. Full-length stringers and multiple bulkheads add rigidity to the hull shapes. Throughout the entire process, ISO 9001 V2000 standards are observed, with thorough lab testing of each layer of the composite construction. All of this information is archived for future reference.
Wide swim platforms at the end of each hull, integral extensions of the bottom, make boarding from either side convenient. Stepping up to the aft deck, you'll find a wide space partially covered by the bridge overhang that is equipped with a comfortable built-in lounge across the transom. Three molded steps up to port or starboard takes you to exceptionally wide side decks that are well protected by thigh-high welded stainless steel handrails, which enclose the entire foredeck for safety. Three pairs of open bollard style cleats, mounted atop the gunwales beneath the safety rails, are positioned well out of the walkway to prevent tripping or toe stubbing. This all combines to create a workable on-deck layout that is easily one of the safest I've ever walked.
Back on the aft deck, I opened the two in-sole hatches over the hulls to examine the storage I suspected to find, and in so doing, found the engines in the forward part of the lockers, enclosed in heavily sound-proofed enclosures. Removing the enclosure tops proved easy enough, and I found that the room around the engines required to perform routine maintenance checks was quite good. Each engine is supplied by its own fuel tank and 100 Amp-hour starting battery, and there are additional house batteries in the starboard hull. Strainers with seacocks were nearby. The storage here is massive, supplementing the storage beneath the aft bench seat and the locker in the molded spiral stairway that led to the flybridge.
The massive sunpad aft includes a removable backrest, and the comfortable cushions wrap around the port side--more than enough room for eight guests. There is a molded bench seat for two abaft of the helm, with the wheel almost on the centerline. The helm console is large enough for a good-sized multi-function display (MFD), plus a full range of performance instruments. Sight lines on the flybridge are unencumbered, and the view down the stairway gave an excellent perspective on the starboard aft quarter, invaluable when backing into a slip.
A sliding glass door on a raised sill provides access to a cozy main saloon, as well as excellent views aft from the lower helm. Inside, straight grained wood, contemporary leather-like upholstery and solid surface counters dominate the décor. Whether sitting at the port side lounge with table or preparing a meal in the starboard side galley, the views were outstanding aft and to each side. Besides improving the view, the second generation Summerland 40 LC has much larger side windows that increase the ambient light in the saloon, a huge improvement over the original design. Lockers flanking the forward end of the saloon, including the one set to port that houses drawer-style refrigerator and freezer compartments, have been lowered physically, a visual change that is as functional as it is aesthetic. The well-equipped galley has storage above and below a good-sized working surface, with twin stainless steel sinks, a four-burner range and an oven, both using liquid petrolium gas.
Sightlines from the helm are much improved by the larger side windows. The forward wraparound window sweeps through what must be about 270 degrees, but the low vertical height takes some getting used to after years of exposure to larger reverse-raked windows found on many trawlers. The helm console is modern and clean with a broad, angled surface to port that is large enough for two MFDs, which most serious cruising boats accommodate these days. Call me cranky, but I like at least one MFD to be dead ahead of the wheel, for easy at-a-glance reference, particularly when I'm entering a new harbor.
Like most catamarans, accommodations are down stairs on either side of the helm, and the Summerland 40 LC is laid out with two cabins in the port side hull and a spacious master stateroom to starboard. The master is worthy of note due to its athwartships double berth, which has a great view through a portlight and hatch on the hull side, a large hanging locker toward the bow, and a human-sized head compartment with separate shower. Interestingly, there is also a door leading into a storage compartment aft of the head.

Design Operating Efficiency
Unique Operating Efficiency
The Fountaine Pajot's outstandingly low fuel consumption is a primary attraction for many buyers who recognize the savings represented by the vessels' long range. The boat offers a minimum of 40 percent reduction in fuel consumption when compared to the performance of a similarly-sized mono-hull.
The reduced drag created by the two hulls plus the efficient wave-piercing action contributes to greatly reduced rates of consumption, and extended range - up to one thousand miles with standard fuel tanks.
The FP Power Cats are renowned for their superior performance in challenging conditions, while maintaining excellent stability and comfort while underway. Higher speeds are achievable in tough conditions due to the boat's semi-displacement hull design. More of the hull remains in the water at higher speeds, softening the ride and reducing stress on the hull from wave impact.
FP Power Cats offer generous freeboard with reinforced hulls and bows to handle the toughest offshore conditions. The hull design offers an impressively dry deck at sea and a stable ride with minimal bounce and roll in dangerous and uncomfortable conditions.
Unlike many of its competitors, these vessels are pleasantly quiet, with engines housed with their own dedicated access.

Vessel Walk Through VESSEL WALK THROUGH
EXTERIOR:
The abundant deck space needs to be seen to be appreciated - there is no mono hull vessel in this size range that can compare.
First there is the aft boarding or swim platform that makes it easy to board from s dinghy or from the water. This leads to a wide and spacious aft cockpit with built in seating and access to the upper flybridge or side and forward decks. There is complete walk around access to all parts of the deck and a forward sun deck area.
The Bridge deck is also quite spacious with loads of seating space, an aft sun lounge and forward helm area that seats 2
INTERIOR:
The vessels are entered through wide sliding glass doors that lead to a wide and spacious Salon. To Starbd is the U-shaped Galley, and to Port a seating or dining area.
Storage cabinetry separates the aft part of the Salon from the forward area with the lower steering station.
A stairway on Port side of the steering station leads to a lower level with two guest cabins - Each with double berth and storage closets. A full head w/shower separates these cabins, and also serves as the day head.
A Stairway to Starbd leads to the private owner's suite with Queen berth facing athwartships and easy access form either side. There is also an owners head w/shower and generous storage closets and lockers
Large windows offer abundant light to all areas.
There is a Cherry wood interior with dark floors and off-white gelcoat. Ultra-leather upholstery.
