A New Page in the Story of Fountaine Pajot

Fountain Pajot Motoryachts

May 24, 2016

The story of Fountaine Pajot began in 1976 and continues today. Inspired by two visionary men: Jean-François Fountaine and Yves Pajot, internationally famous ocean racers, the Fountaine Pajot brand was a forerunner in the design of polyester cruising catamarans and it quickly became an international reference. The Fountaine Pajot brand is now entering a new chapter of its story: becoming a legend.

Today Fountaine Pajot is pleased to announce that to facilitate this new chapter in the brand’s history, the Fountaine Pajot brand has decided to work with three distinct visual identities, each with their own function, narrative and area of expression to explore:
