Description

Orana 44

The highly anticipated new Orana 44 replaces one of Fountaine Pajot’s greatest successes, the Belize 43. Designed by renowned Joubert/Nivelt team, the Orana 44 is ideal for performance ocean sailing or modified for charter operators. Boasting a high degree of comfort, the Orana 44 has a low centre of gravity to afford maximum safety and with a generous 110 square feet of sail area.

New manufacturing technologies employed in the vessel include a single piece hull infused with composite partitions and a deckhouse constructed with RTM eco-technology.

An innovative sliding bay provides direct open-plan access between the spacious saloon and cockpit, enhancing safety and easy of movement.

The ergonomic helm station accommodates three people and groups all navigational manoeuvres together affording excellent visibility above the deckhouse.

A sunbathing deck aft of the catamaran features two mattresses with deck-chair style adjustments for optimal comfort.

The luminous interior comprises a light and airy kitchen that opens onto the cockpit, a beautiful saloon table that seats eight people with panoramic views, as well as a card table that faces the sea.

Each of the four cabins aboard the Orana 44 enjoys its own private bathroom with separate shower. The Owner’s suite in the Maestro version is fitted with an Island bed, while the two supplementary cabins have semi-island style beds.

The new, Control cockpit concept...

Click on the pictures to enlarge.

We now incorporate a Hard top Bimini which provides more cockpit protection and an area to attach side curtains, while serving as a sun bathing platform above.
The floor blends smoothly into the main saloon, with no awkward step down. Virtually the entire boat now serves as one large, comfortable entertaining or working space. The cockpit is open aft, for easy walk out access to the stern platforms, dinghy, or deck.
The control cockpit itself offers easy, direct access to the deck, on one hand, and the cockpit on the other. A couple of steps down, put you and your guests back together. Food and beverages are easily passed to the helmsman who is not isolated from her guests!
All Sail Controls are led to the control cockpit including both jib sheets, main sheet and main halyard. One electric winch can control everything.
