Helia 44: the new Fountaine Pajot

Announced surprisingly at the last moment by the builder, the new Helia 44 was well and truly present at the autumn boat shows. A catamaran which replaces the Orana 44 in the range.

On seeing this brand-new boat for the first time, it is hard to ignore the family resemblance to its big sister, the Sanya 57: we find on the Helia the famous lounge deck, an area which is as pleasant at sea as at anchor, a well-protected cockpit, an extremely bright saloon (with inevitably a panoramic view over the wonderful anchorage), etc.
For those of you who didn't get a chance to see it at the autumn boat shows, it can be seen at Annapolis, then Paris, and will be tested in the next edition of Multihulls World!
