About
Fountaine Pajot Mahe 36 Evolution: Performance, Comfort, Adventure!
This catamaran has been Rhode Island-based since new, making its maiden voyage on her own hull from France to Massachusetts immediately after commissioning. With only two owners, the first kept her lightly used in and around Narragansett Bay, RI. The current owner has sailed her extensively, using her for snowbird journeys between summers in Rhode Island and winters in the Bahamas and Virgin Islands. Ideal for cruising the ICW and Bahamas, she features a shallow 3.5-foot draft, a 58-foot air draft, and widely spaced engines that provide excellent handling under power. Her bluewater capabilities have been thoroughly proven, and with minimal preparation, she could confidently tackle ocean crossings. The current owner, a professional sailor and instructor, is available to offer training or delivery services for the new owner.
Design and Accommodations:
Renowned designer team Joubert/Nivelt brought their expertise to the Mahe 36, crafting sleek hulls that excel in performance while maintaining catamaran stability. The narrow waterline beams enhance speed and upwind ability, while the hulls flare out above the waterline to provide comfortable living space and added buoyancy. This blend of performance and comfort ensures the Mahe 36 can handle both spirited coastal cruising and challenging offshore conditions. The boat's resin-infused fiberglass construction, complete with watertight bulkheads fore and aft, offers durability and peace of mind for long-term adventures. Paired with twin 30-horsepower Volvo diesels positioned aft for quiet operation, the boat moves effortlessly under power and sails impressively, reaching over 9 knots on a close reach in moderate conditions.
Below deck, this Mahe 36 Evolution is configured in the desirable three-cabin, one-head layout, perfect for families or small groups. The starboard hull is dedicated to the owner's suite, featuring a spacious queen berth and abundant storage. The port hull houses two cabins, a queen and a double, ideal for guests or crew. The bright and airy salon connects seamlessly to the cockpit through large sliding doors, creating an inviting social space with panoramic views. The hard-top and full enclosure provide a comfortable environment in both sunny and inclement weather. A well-equipped galley makes meal preparation a pleasure, while the head, located forward in the starboard hull, includes a modern design and a separate shower for added convenience. From its efficient layout to its comfortable amenities, this catamaran is perfectly suited for extended cruising.

My wife and I worked with Andrew Hodgdon to sell our 2021 FP Elba 45. In addition to skillfully carrying out the traditional yacht broker responsibilities, Andrew went above-and-beyond to ensure that we were well-positioned to sell in a competitive market. For example, Andrew helped out with much-appreciated repairs and hurricane prep, among other things. Trustworthy, intelligent, and conscientious, Andrew’s communications with us and the buyer were always thoughtful and forward-thinking, and fairly represented our interests.
We really lucked out in connecting with The Multihull Company. We made a cold call to Cynthia Wummer, a Multihull Company broker and told her we wanted to buy a catamaran to cruise The Great Loop and experience the Bahamas. We particularly wanted a PDQ power catamaran. From our first contact she was so helpful and responsive. She immediately contacted a selling broker who represented a prospective seller. Because we are new to a bigger boat and boating on the ICW, Cynthia assisted us through the entire process. She is a captain which was an added bonus to the process; she knew all the right questions to ask the selling broker as well as the surveyor. She drove 3 hours to be present during the survey, she developed a good relationship with the selling broker, she called and checked in with us regularly, was very enthusiastic about our purchase, and answered all our questions. We could not have done it without her. The Multlihull Company support team, Andrew Holland and Courtney Greider, were so helpful in the closing process: the paperwork was easy to complete and communication was smooth and timely. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend The Multihull Company and Cynthia to anyone who is the market for a boat large or small. Thank you!!!!
Multihull Company has succeeded again. This is my second time using their services and they are extremely professional and honest. Working with their brokers and their administrative team was easy. Communication occurred at every level and constructive advise was always given. They know this business inside and out and acted as my fiduciary in every way. I will use them again for their service and knowledge.
Great to deal with and very patient in our questions. They were able to find us the perfect vessel for our needs.
