Here's what we think about the Fountaine Pajot Astrea 42:
The Fountaine Pajot Astrea 42 is a well-balanced catamaran that sits comfortably between the smaller Lucia 40 and the larger Elba 45. Compared to the Lucia 40, the Astrea 42 offers more living space, particularly in the cockpit and saloon areas, which flow seamlessly thanks to its fully retractable doors. The larger footprint and added amenities make it a clear step up in terms of comfort and social spaces, ideal for groups looking for more room to relax. Sailing performance is also improved over the Lucia 40, with better upwind capabilities and more stability due to its increased size.
When compared to the Elba 45, the Astrea 42 doesn’t quite match the Elba’s more spacious flybridge or enhanced design features, but it still holds its own for those seeking a slightly smaller and more budget-friendly option. The Astrea 42 has a more compact helm station, lacking the full flybridge of the Elba, but still offers excellent visibility and easy sail handling, particularly for short-handed crews. Overall, the Astrea 42 strikes a good balance, offering more comfort than the Lucia 40 while remaining easier to manage and more affordable than the Elba 45.
