The Fountaine Pajot Elba 45 is one of the most succesful models from FP. She took all of the great design features from the Helia 44 and Saba 50, and incorporated them into one of the most well-thought-out mid-forty foot catamarans on the market today.
Starting with a solid foundation, Harmony takes it to the next level with her bluewater upgrades, including:
- Upgraded Volvo Motors w/ Folding Props
- Full Garmin Electronics Package
- Watermaker
- Lithium Battery Bank
- Custom Solar Array
- Hydraulic Platform
- Squaretop Mainsail
- Code Zero w/ Bowsprit
- Parasailor
- Upgraded Fusion Stereo System
If you have any other questions on the boat, please don't hesitate to reach out.

Great video Wiley. I agree with you regarding the sky lounge! I often tell people looking for their first cat that if it doesn't have a sky lounge, it's not a serious contender! Prove me wrong!
Thanks Bill. I hope you guys are having a great sail north, and enjoying your sky lounge.
All I could think of with the sky lounge was the bird Shite !
I am in contract for a new Elba. I saw all the videos on this boat one can find on TH-cam. Your "for sale" video gets the Oscar. Bravo to the cinematographer!
Thanks for the kind words. Where are you planning on doing your sailing?
@@catamarancentral well, I am expecting commissioning in France next April. I have several months of post factory upgrades. When my boat is ready, I will wait for proper season to cross the Atlantic and bring it home. Perhaps in October. Given that home is in the Northeast US, I may leave it in the Caribbean for the winter. I didn't reach that far with my planning. Do you have a suggestion for a location that combine safety, affordability and good cruising grounds to park a cat in the Caribbeans? Ultimately I am planning to go full time cruising with my wife and daughter.
So excited for you! The Elba is on my short list. How smoothly did the whole process go? Did they deliver on time?
Thank you! I got delivery this March and presently she get lots of work and prep for season on western Europe and Atlantic city crossing after November 1st. She is a stunning vessel. I can't wait..
Yes, delivery was on time. I ordered via ACY and had a positive experienced. My salesman David Widham was fantastic to deal with.
Thank you for the information. She is a stunning boat. If you ever make it up to Maine, I’m near Kennebunkport. We could meet up for dinner and drinks. My wife and I are planning to go to the Annapolis Boat Show this year to see a few other options. She is really excited about the comforts of the Elba though.
Saw an Elba 45 at the Newport RI boat show, absolutely stunning.
Always enjoy seeing your latest video’s. When I get ready to buy, I’ll definitely come see you. I know that you have a good name in the business.
Thats very kind of you to say. We're here for when you're ready!
Great styling - a combination of richness and practicality✌
Thank you! 😊. She's a super well laid out boat.
Great presentation as always.
I absolutely love your attention to detail in every video you make. You managed to present a lot of information in your video's as well as making them very pleasant to watch.
I have become a fan of the recent line of Fountaine Pajot catamarans starting with the Helia 44 (which is currently the boat on my wishlist). The semi-raised helm station of mostly the cause of this, I think it is the most conveniant place to control your boat while still being able to communicate with both the people in the cockpit or salon as well as those on the (semi) fly bridge.
As for the Elba 45, the one thing I am a bit confused about is the split galley arrangement with the stair case down being in between the actual cooking stove and the prep station in the rear. Somehow, this feels more akward compard to the U-shaped galleys found in the Helia or Saba.
Since I have not had the pleasure to check this out myself, could you give me your opinion on this arrangement?
Would be much appreciated.
Nailed the presentstion! Great job
Thanks Stu. We had a ton of fun on this one.
Great presentation 👍
Thank you 👍
A lot to like about this one.
Thats for sure!
Good job thank you
Asking price is a bit high despite the upgrades. 200k more can get you a brand new one
It’s a beautiful boat,but I dread to thing what it weighs with all that Stuff and the amount of maintenance you would have to do to keep it all top notch.Give me simple to enjoy more sail time.
Great job. Three contenderes coming up for this guy Nautech 46 fly, Elba 45, 49 Saba, see what a year or 2 does for price and budget. retirement date is set in 9 months, and off we go. like your style be in touch then. I dont know a boat broker so you'll do lol.
That's a great short list of boats. I'll be here and ready to assist when you are ready to move fwd.
what a dream however unattainable for me
Its good to dream, and to have goals to work towards.
If you take a drink every time this thunder head says "adequate", you'll be drunk by the end. This man was certainly not meant to be a salesman, though he's trying very hard.
Your comment is more than adequate.
Well, he have sold me many boats, if I had the money. I rest my case!
