Fountaine Pajot Aura 51

The proud successor of the world-renowned Saba 50, the Aura 51 marks a new stage in the evolution of the Fountaine Pajot Sailing Catamaran range and the desire of the shipyard in La Rochelle to go further in its environmental approach.

Easier Movement About the Deck

The deck of the Aura 51 has been completely redesigned providing even more space and comfort. A great new feature for this 51-foot cruising catamaran is its complete opening between the saloon and the cockpit facilitating communication between the galley and the large cockpit table.

Renewable Energy with Large Capacity

The Fountaine Pajot design office, in collaboration with the Olivier Racoupeau Design team of naval architects, imagined the Aura 51 to be able to accommodate a large surface area of solar panels without compromising on design.

Its large flybridge, equipped with a  lounge and sunbathing area, is fitted with solar panels that are capable of producing 2000 watts of renewable energy. This successful gamble allows the Aura 51 to generate 5 times more solar energy than other yachts equipped with solar panels.

Aura 51 Maestro Layout

Yacht Life Starts Here

A multitude of layouts including a 6 cabin / 6 head version.

The Aura 51 adapts to your desires and your cruising needs with 4 different layout options. Each cabin has its own bathroom area, including the 6-cabin version – a first on the catamaran market for a 51-foot model, as is the double Maestro version, another yard exclusive. The Full Maestro version offers a huge owner’s cabin in the entire port hull.

The Aura 51 is undeniably a cruising multihull that is pleasant to live aboard and respectful of its environment.

Aura 51 review: space in abundance

  • Toby Hodges
  • December 29, 2022

When a boat is your home, the space and comfort it provides become paramount plenty of which is on offer in the Aura 51 by Fountaine Pajot

Product Overview

Price as reviewed:.

Step aboard the wide transom steps of the Aura 51 and I’d challenge even the most stubborn traditionalist or monohull enthusiast not to be in awe of the space and home comforts on offer. For those thinking of spending long periods of time or even living aboard, this is a definitive, modern, large production catamaran, one which – if you’re lucky enough to be in the market for such a substantial yacht – quickly gets you dreaming of a life afloat, with space to take friends, family and toys aplenty.

That was the case for the highly experienced sailing couple who own the second Aura 51 to launch and the boat we trialled. Johan Salen, co-owner of The Ocean Race (formerly the Volvo Ocean Race), lives and works aboard full time with his wife, Christine, and their dog Leo.

The Salens spent three years sailing their previous performance catamaran, an Outremer 5X , around the world with their son. But after seven years living ashore since then, they wanted a more comfortable boat, yet one still capable of averaging 8-10 knots.

When we met they had just stepped ashore after their first two months of ownership, which involved leisurely non-stop cruising the Glénan Islands, off Christine’s Brittany homeland. And their plan now is to spend the next four years exploring all around the European coastlines before embarking on another bluewater adventure to the Pacific.

Creating an Aura

The Aura 51 is arguably the largest manageable size of catamaran before a professional crew is needed. It’s also the first model to offer the yard’s new Smart Electric option. Fountaine Pajot worked with La Rochelle specialists Alternatives Energies to develop electric pods with hydrogenerators and energy storage and management systems. It has already launched a hybrid version and there’s an electric and hydrogen model in the pipeline. It’s good to see such a large production yard taking proper, positive steps towards cleaner boating.

The Aura 51 replaces the Saba 50, bringing more voluminous hulls and wider transom entrances. The new coachroof design integrates copious solar panels, brings more natural light and a larger flybridge area. The main bulkhead doors fully retract to give a 3m wide opening between saloon/galley and cockpit, while a clever accommodation plan offers four layouts, with all cabins including the six cabin version having en suite facilities.

The Salens have an owner’s hull to port, and three cabins to starboard. For me, the aft access to this via a gullwing door is a real selling point. It makes it all too easy to imagine waking up and walking straight out onto the aft deck and into clear Pacific waters.

With a four year minimum waiting list the norm for new catamarans, the Salens consider themselves lucky to have found a slot with Fountaine Pajot. Photo: EYOTY/Ludovic Fruchaud

The cockpit can be fully enclosed with canopies, which the Salens found useful in driving rain, and the intelligent design allows these to be left mounted ready to deploy. This option can additionally offer some visual protection and security for when leaving the boat. The cockpit also features abundant stowage.

The foredeck may feel a little plain without cushioning options and there’s no access to the flybridge to climb up/jump down in a hurry. However, it boasts a cavernous central locker. On the test boat this easily swallowed two gennakers, the genset, an auxiliary outboard motor and a spare line drum.

Once out of La Rochelle’s narrow channel, we met mirror calm seas, yet raised sails in vain hope. But I was pleasantly surprised to note we could still ghost along at 3 knots in 3.5 knots true wind and up to 4.5 knots in 6.5-7 knots close reaching using only white sails.

That said the Aura 51 needs at least double figure wind speeds to make meaningful speeds. My fellow European Yacht of the Year jury members from Yacht magazine confirmed reaching speeds of 6 knots in 8-10 knots wind during their trials.

The steering linkage is hydraulic, and with no feedback at all it takes time to figure out how much correction to add. There is also negligible visibility from the single helm to the port side, particularly aft, hence there will be a need to dock starboard side too, or else rely on help from cameras.

The helmstation works well with its large bench, wide enough for a couple (and dog!). There is room to pass between the wheel and the winch bench to the side deck or flybridge, yet they are close enough to work both areas.

My thoughts on sail handling and performance are almost irrelevant given the very light conditions we experienced. I was keen to learn more about why the Salens chose this model as it’s unusual for experienced sailors to step down in performance terms. They explained that as they always sail two up now, the average speeds the Aura offers is plenty. Indeed, both Johan and Christine pointed to an uncomfortable motion at higher cruising speeds.

“Once you start going quicker than 10 knots it involves more pitching and is more uncomfortable to live on. If you have a boat that can sail at 8-10 knots comfortably, that’s enough,” said Johan.

Loïc Madeline, editor of Voiles and another jury member, confirmed such easy speeds to me when the wind built to 14-16 knots. They hit 10 knots easily and made a steady 9 knots under autopilot with white sails at 70-75° true – “easy speed with no one really taking care of the sails,” he reported.

The Salens rarely go to marinas so manoeuvring from the single helm hasn’t been an issue. They find using one engine at 2,000rpm the most economic method under power, which burns 4-5lt per hour.

The couple made another salient point: “When you spend a lot of time aboard, you are not sailing most of the time,” Johan explained. “Even with our 5X we were sailing less than 10% of the time.” The Swedish ex-professional windsurfer considers it more important now to have the space to ship the right equipment and watersports toys to enjoy at anchor.

The Salens have a 3.8m Highfield RIB and 25hp motor on davits which they can waterski behind and use for exploration. They also keep a small inflatable in the forward locker, which comes in use in ports and going ashore/lifting up a beach, plus a garage of foiling /windsports gear in the sail lockers. “It’s the toys you can bring to enjoy life that is one of the main benefits a catamaran brings,” says Johan.

Aura 51 below decks

The cockpit hosts the main dining area, but Berret Racoupeau design has really opened up the connection to the galley. The latter is huge, including a generous island that forms the heart of the social space as it might in a modern home. Long, large skylights work with all the coachroof windows to make it naturally bright and an opening forward window adds valuable ventilation.

The lack of a desk/navstation option on the main deck is a pity – there’s not even a conventional switchboard, just touchscreen controls. Indeed, I find the single layout format, albeit understandable for serial production purposes, a little limiting on the main deck. The two large drawer fridges, to forward port, are an excellent inclusion, however they are in a strange position above the companionway as you find yourself half in the stairwell to access them. Personally I’d prefer the option for a forward-facing navstation/desk area there.

Square edges on the furniture are a pet hate – large catamarans such as this still move and pitch around at awkward angles at sea. The corners of the veneers were already damaged on the saloon table, which is disappointing for a seven figure boat.

The owner’s hull obviously enjoys massive amounts of headroom and space, with a sculpted out bulkhead to open out the cabin area. It provides serious lashings of home liveaboard comfort, with a generous changing area opposite the wardrobes, and the crowning element of direct aft deck access aft. The desk amidships is key, an area Johan uses constantly as his office.

The whole forward section is a bathroom with a huge walk-in shower, plentiful light and ventilation and separate heads area, the size of which you’d be happy with in most homes.

In the starboard hull a bulkhead separates the aft cabin so it can only be accessed from the cockpit. Each of the three cabins in this hull still feels large and has its own en suite, even if the athwartships berth forward has a slightly more prestige feel.

Fountaine Pajot has produced another inviting model, especially for the space and comfort it offers for long periods aboard, mixed with an ability to still sail reasonably well and ensure you can clock good average speeds. As ever, it brings compromises, such as hands-on feel, visibility and manageability, but where do your priorities lie? Johan Salen made a point I have often found myself thinking. Liveaboard sailors typically spend such a small percentage of the time at the wheel, that if you want to get that adrenaline buzz, ‘have the right toys with you’ he stressed – rather than try and get the sportiest yacht to be your floating home. Go dinghy sailing, kiting, or wingfoiling instead once you’re at the anchorage. A large catamaran such as this gives you the means to store such toys; it becomes the mothership, as it were. And that really appeals!

Elected 2024 Boat of the Year!

Cruising World Magazine elected Fountaine Pajot AURA 51 "2024 Boat of the Year" in the Under 50' category!

Fountaine Pajot AURA 51 replaces SABA 50

Saba 50 was  the largest Fountaine Pajot sailing catamaran that is easy to handle without a skipper. Almost 140 boats of this model have now been sailing all around the world.

The Aura51 is in the same vein, and offers 4 to 6 cabins. Announced in September 2020 by Fountaine Pajot shipyard, this 51 sailing catamaran has been launched in March 2022 .

The Aura 51 brings a lot of innovative features, including a vast flybridge and generous living areas.

AURA 51: The future is now

In terms of sustainability, this yacht offers 1.600W of integrated solar panels, which is 4 times more than the SABA 50 . The ambition of Fountaine Pajot shipyard is to provide sailors with sustainable power autonomy.

Functional space on board the AURA 51

The pilot seat and controls are installed by the entrance of the inside saloon for easy access. The saloon doors opening onto the cockpit are twice larger than the Saba's. Easy circulation through the fully open deck provides an in and out galley.

Protected by the wind screen, enjoy great convivial moments with up to 14 pax around the extended dinner table.  The XXL Lounge deck adds another convivial space with seats and sunbeds.

You will also love the private entrance onto the Owner's Suite directly from the cockpit.

Living space inside Fountaine Pajot AURA 51

4 layouts to suit all sailing adventures

  • The Full Maestro version has an amazing owner's suite in the whole port side hull. The starboard hull offers 3 double cabins with bathrooms.
  • The Double Maestro version has a big Owner's suite and another cabin on the port side, and the same on the starboard side. There are in total 4 cabins and 4 bathrooms.
  • The Maestro 5 cabins offers an owner's suite and 4 double cabins, all with private bathrooms.
  • The 6 cabins NEW 51 is perfect for charter use with 6 identical double cabins with bathrooms.

Whatever the version, all guest cabins have a Queen size bed facing the sea view and a private bathroom.

Sailing performance & Comfort at helm

With her mast and sails and her sail/weight ratio, the AURA 51 outperforms comparable cruising catamarans and provides smooth sailing.

She features a mast forward , supported by a strong laminated bulkhead. Her accessible boom allows better performance, is safe and easy to maintain.

This sailing catamaran has a well balanced rigging and powerful mainsail and genoa.

The mid high helm station is perfect for a family boat, as it allows to communicate easily with both the Lounge Deck and the cockpit/saloon.

FP 51 Overview

The FP 51 is truly an evolution of the popular and highly successful Saba 50. The FP 51 sailing catamaran is the next evolutionary leap for Fountaine Pajot sailing catamarans bringing ergonomics and environment to cruising into the forefront more than ever.

Her new deck layout is a complete redesign moving the helm to a forward station on the saloon deck, not on the flybridge. This along with the openness of the floor between cockpit through saloon to the helm creates simplicity. The safety and comfort of this simple configuration creates a very large yacht that can be sailed single-handedly.

The exceptionally large array of solar panels produce 2000 watts of renewable energy, yet go unnoticed in the sleek design. The expanses designed to offer living and entertaining space also created ample area to place solar panels completely flush with the deck. But for FP, solar was not enough thus a hybrid engine is a possibility that will result in a sailing vessel that produces more energy than it consumes, the ultimate definition of sustainable.

A few highlights of the next evolution of FP catamarans include:

  • a deck redesigned for comfort and plenty of space including opening the saloon to the cockpit making casual conversations easier, important communications safer, and use of the oversized cockpit table more enjoyable
  • very sleek designs of the galley island and appliances taking this boat into the next decade
  • solar panels everywhere without sacrificing design and enjoyment of the space by using flush panels following the vessel’s lines
  • large variety of layouts, each featuring en suite baths in every cabin, even the charter version 

FP 51 Layouts

The FP 51 is available in the following layouts:

  • Double Maestro – 2 Owners Suites + 2 Heads / 2 Double Cabins + 2 Heads – a first in a catamaran of this range
  • Full Maestro – 1 Upsized (full hull)  Owner Suite + 1 Head / 3 Double Cabins + 3 Bathrooms
  • Maestro 5 Cabin – 1 Owner Suite + 1 Head / 4 Double Cabins + 4 Heads
  • 6 Cabin – 6 Double Cabins + 6 Heads – a first in a catamaran of this range

CMA's sturdy new multihull will be able to navigate choppy waters with ease.

CMA Catamaran Concept

Catamarans tend to be associated with casual coastal cruising rather than lengthy transoceanic expeditions, but Cristiano Mariani of CMA could help change that.

This New 262-Foot Superyacht Lets You Mix and Match 3 Interior and Exterior Designs

CMA Catamaran Concept

The layout can be entirely customized by the owner, as can the decor and furnishings. The lower deck is currently configured with two guest staterooms, three crew cabins, and a VIP, while the main deck features another VIP, the owner’s suite, a spacious lounge, and a functional galley. Two additional crew cabins are located in the bow, while the upper deck sports a lounge, a pantry, the captain’s cabin, and the wheelhouse. The interior could be tweaked to include one epic family area or even three VIPs. Owners can also add a spa to the owner’s suite or the VIPs.

Outside, the cat offers over 3,000 square feet of deck space for alfresco dining, entertaining, and lounging. The partially sheltered sundeck is adorned with sunbeds and a bar, while the upper deck is home to an inviting Jacuzzi. Down below, the stern is equipped with fold-out platforms that can be lowered to connect guests with the ocean. The expandable area doubles as a waterside beach club and a mooring spot for runabouts or Jet Skis.

Mariani says he can further develop the project with an engineer and interior designer, meaning that the chosen shipyard should be able to easily execute the build. He just has to reel in an owner.

First refuelling for Russia’s Akademik Lomonosov floating NPP

!{Model.Description}

catamaran new 51

The FNPP includes two KLT-40S reactor units. In such reactors, nuclear fuel is not replaced in the same way as in standard NPPs – partial replacement of fuel once every 12-18 months. Instead, once every few years the entire reactor core is replaced with and a full load of fresh fuel.

The KLT-40S reactor cores have a number of advantages compared with standard NPPs. For the first time, a cassette core was used, which made it possible to increase the fuel cycle to 3-3.5 years before refuelling, and also reduce by one and a half times the fuel component in the cost of the electricity produced. The operating experience of the FNPP provided the basis for the design of the new series of nuclear icebreaker reactors (series 22220). Currently, three such icebreakers have been launched.

The Akademik Lomonosov was connected to the power grid in December 2019, and put into commercial operation in May 2020.

Electricity generation from the FNPP at the end of 2023 amounted to 194 GWh. The population of Pevek is just over 4,000 people. However, the plant can potentially provide electricity to a city with a population of up to 100,000. The FNPP solved two problems. Firstly, it replaced the retiring capacities of the Bilibino Nuclear Power Plant, which has been operating since 1974, as well as the Chaunskaya Thermal Power Plant, which is more than 70 years old. It also supplies power to the main mining enterprises located in western Chukotka. In September, a 490 km 110 kilovolt power transmission line was put into operation connecting Pevek and Bilibino.
