The Fountaine Pajot Bahia 46 (1998), with an extensive refit in 2024, is far more than a cruising catamaran; she is a fully autonomous floating home designed for serious liveaboard sailors and long-distance adventurers.

Extensively modernized with a 36kWh lithium energy system, this yacht delivers true silent living, allowing the air conditioning, watermaker, induction galley, and household appliances to run directly from the batteries without relying on a generator.

Continuous 230V power throughout the vessel creates a level of onboard comfort rarely found in boats of this size, while the gas-free galley enhances both safety and convenience for global cruising.

With newly replaced standing rigging in 2024, upgraded navigation electronics including B&G radar and chartplotters, and a fully integrated Victron energy management system, she is exceptionally well prepared for immediate bluewater passagemaking.

Reliability and self-sufficiency were clearly at the center of every upgrade. Twin Yanmar 4JH4AE 53hp mechanical diesel engines provide dependable propulsion without the complexity of modern electronic systems, while the saildrive lower legs were renewed in 2022 for additional peace of mind.

The spacious 4-cabin layout is fully air-conditioned and heated, making the yacht equally comfortable in tropical anchorages or colder climates.

A massive inventory of professional tools and spare parts allows owners to handle maintenance independently in remote locations, a major advantage for circumnavigators.

Complete with hydraulic passerelle, offshore liferaft, high-output watermaker, extensive solar array, and a fully equipped galley, this Bahia 46 is a rare turnkey opportunity for sailors seeking true freedom, comfort, and autonomy at sea.
