Boat Overview Year: 2014 Model: Fountaine Pajot Helia 444 Cabins: 4 Heads: 4 Name: Island State of Mind The Fountaine Pajot Helia 44 is a proven cruising catamaran known for its balance of performance, comfort, and offshore capability. Island State of Mind features the desirable 4-cabin, 4-head layout, offering excellent space and privacy for owners and guests. She has never been chartered and has been privately owned and thoughtfully maintained throughout her life. Powered by twin Volvo Penta D2-55F engines with recent 2026 servicing, she is well set up for continued cruising. Her sail plan includes a Doyle mainsail and jib on furling systems, supported by electric and manual Harken winches for efficient handling. The cockpit is fully enclosed and well protected, with teak decking and comfortable seating throughout. Electronics are fully integrated with Garmin navigation, Simrad autopilot, and radar at the helm and nav station. Power is supported by solar, wind generation, and Victron charging systems for extended off-grid capability. Additional highlights include air conditioning, watermaker, dishwasher, washing machine, full refrigeration, Rocna ground tackle, and a Highfield tender with outboard and davits. Originally delivered in France and sailed across the Atlantic to Puerto Rico, she later continued up to New England before returning south, enjoying extensive private cruising throughout the Caribbean, including Puerto Rico, the USVI, and the BVI. Well equipped, well cared for, and turnkey for continued cruising.
