Our Boat

FP logo.png

After several years of debate over a mono-hull vs a catamaran Janine and Andrew chose Fontaine Pajot's new 45 foot ELBA luxury catamaran.  This is a new design with the first hull launched in 2019.   Our boat was ordered in October 2019 while attending Annapolis MD boat show and being able to view and walk through.  It checks off all the boxes for what they were looking for as a live aboard floating home for their upcoming retirement plans to sail the world.

Don't tell Andrew but I was the mastermind behind buying a new catamaran, in particular the Elba45, and sailing the world.  

​

I love to travel, cook, ski, sail and world adventure.
