About
The Fountaine Pajot Helia 44 Evolution Maestro "W" is one of the most sought-after cruising catamarans in her class, combining outstanding liveaboard comfort with genuine offshore sailing performance.
The current owners purchased "W" in the Caribbean in 2024 with a clear objective: to complete a safe and enjoyable trans-Pacific voyage to French Polynesia while creating unforgettable family memories along the way.
Although the yacht was already a relatively recent vessel, they chose to invest substantially in her preparation before departure, prioritising reliability, safety and peace of mind over cost.
This included replacing the standing rigging, commissioning a complete new sail wardrobe, upgrading the running rigging and carrying out numerous mechanical and technical improvements, ensuring the yacht was in outstanding condition before undertaking the ocean crossing.
Her sailing inventory has also received significant investment in 2024 including new Incidences Hydranet mainsail and genoa, new gennaker and new asymmetric spinnaker, together with new standing rigging (2024) and upgraded Dyneema running rigging, providing confidence for many seasons of cruising ahead.
Twin Volvo Penta D2-60 engines with low hours (800H), Garmin navigation electronics, Coppercoat antifouling, rainwater collection system, air conditioning in the owner's suite, washer/dryer, and numerous practical cruising upgrades complete an inventory rarely found on a vessel of this size.
