About the Fp 44

French naval architect Marc Lombard designed this sophisticated 44-foot sailing yacht as part of the Fountaine Pajot catamaran lineup, though the Fp 44 represents a departure into monohull territory for the renowned multihull manufacturer. This sleek cruising yacht embodies modern European design philosophy, combining performance-oriented sailing characteristics with comfortable accommodations for extended coastal and offshore passages. Built with quality construction techniques typical of French yacht builders, the Fp 44 features a contemporary hull form optimized for efficient sailing across a range of conditions. The yacht's moderate displacement and well-balanced sail plan make it particularly well-suited for couples or small families seeking a responsive sailing experience without sacrificing comfort below decks. While detailed specifications remain limited, the boat's reputation suggests strong performance capabilities that appeal to sailors transitioning from smaller vessels or those seeking a manageable size for short-handed sailing. The yacht's European styling is evident in its clean lines and functional deck layout, reflecting the builder's commitment to both aesthetic appeal and practical seamanship. For sailors considering coastal cruising with occasional offshore passages, the Fp 44 offers an intriguing blend of sailing performance and cruising amenities.

Performance Ratios
Displacement/Length Displacement to Length ratio measures how heavy a boat is relative to its waterline length. Lower values mean a lighter, faster boat.
Under 100 — Ultralight racer100–200 — Light cruiser/racer200–300 — Moderate cruiser300–400 — Heavy cruiserOver 400 — Very heavy
295.94
Comfort Ratio Ted Brewer's Comfort Ratio predicts how comfortable a boat will feel in offshore conditions. Higher values mean a steadier, more comfortable motion in a seaway.
Under 20 — Uncomfortably rough20–30 — Acceptable coastal30–40 — Good offshore comfortOver 40 — Very comfortable offshore
18.72
Capsize Screening Formula The USHS Capsize Screening Formula estimates offshore capsize risk. Lower is safer — values under 2.0 are considered acceptable for offshore sailing.
Under 2.0 — Safe for offshore2.0–2.2 — Borderline offshoreOver 2.2 — Coastal use recommended
3.03
Hull Speed Hull Speed is the theoretical maximum speed of a displacement hull, calculated from waterline length. Most cruising sailboats reach this speed in moderate conditions. 8.15 kn
Pounds/Inch Immersion Pounds per Inch Immersion (PPI) tells you how much weight is needed to sink the boat one inch. Useful for calculating how additional gear and stores affect waterline. 19.34 pounds/inch
