About Bareboat Catamaran Fountaine Pajot Salina 48
The Fountaine Pajot Salina 48 is a purpose-built cruising catamaran designed by the respected French naval architects Berret/Racoupeau. Her slender hull form and efficient sail plan deliver exceptional stability and comfort, even in challenging sea conditions, without the pitching typical of monohulls. Based in Solenzara, she is ideal for exploring Corsica's dramatic coastline independently.
Accommodation comprises four double cabins with ensuite facilities, plus two additional berths, sleeping up to ten guests across an open-plan layout where all living areas occupy a single level. This design fosters conviviality amongst family groups and friend circles. Large portholes flood each cabin with natural light and sea views.
The social spaces reflect thoughtful layout. The saloon and cockpit flow seamlessly with generous entry access, whilst the galley features advanced refrigeration suited to extended cruising. Multiple dining options include an indoor table and an outdoor dining area, complemented by a card table positioned to capture views. The raised helm station accommodates three for easy watch-keeping and centralised control of all systems. An expansive aft sun deck with weather protection provides an exceptional retreat for day cruising or anchored relaxation.

The Charter Experience
Bareboat charter of the Salina 48 grants you complete freedom to navigate Corsica's turquoise bays, granite anchorages, and sheltered harbours at your own pace. Launch from Solenzara and cruise northward to the Îles d'Hyères, westward to the Scandola Nature Reserve, or southward to Bonifacio's limestone cliffs. The catamaran's spacious deck layout, integrated bathing ladder, and deck shower enhance comfort whilst anchored in remote coves. The two-level sleeping arrangement ensures all guests enjoy privacy and sea views, whilst the generous social spaces provide sanctuary from the elements during variable weather.
Suggested Itinerary
A week-long Corsican itinerary might begin with gentle exploration of the Solenzara coastline before heading north to the Îles d'Hyères for protected anchorages. Westward passage reveals the dramatic Scandola cliffs and pristine beaches inaccessible by road. Southern cruising concludes near Bonifacio, where the limestone straits offer dramatic scenery and excellent holding ground. Throughout, the Salina 48's stability allows confident day-sailing between anchorages, leaving ample time for swimming, sundowners, and shoreside exploration.
