"One cannot control the sea so one must be able to control everything on board a boat". It took 18 months conceiving, followed by numerous models, before the duo Joubert-Nivelt produced "Venezia", the new 42 footer from Fontaine-Pajot that is destined to replace the "Fidji" and the "Casamance", not an easy thing to ask of any boat.

First impressions The Venezia caused quite a stir when it was introduced at the Paris boat show. Not only was the basic design quite futuristic looking-some say it looked like a spacecraft-but designers Joubert and Nivelt included the now famous visor. This feature, which has become a Fountaine Pajot trademark, extends the coachroof beyond the forward portlights, sheltering the saloon from the sun without restricting visibility or light while creating a very sleek cabin profile. The Venezia is not a light boat, at least not by multihull standards. The dry displacement is nearly 15,000 pounds. This is a genuine cruising catamaran and can carry a bit of load without immediately immersing the hulls and destroying performance. The hulls have a narrow entry and the bows are nearly plumb, the waterline length is 41 feet. The substantial bridgedeck is just over 27 feet long, giving the boat a feeling of rigidity and accounting for some of the weight. Bridgedeck clearance is around 2 feet, however, in a seaway there is a lot of dynamic water action between the hulls and a fair bit of slamming. The two fixed keel stubs have a draft of just less than 4 feet and the working sail area is 968 square feet. The fractional rig includes a big, roachy, full-batten mainsail.

Construction The Venezia's hulls are a sandwich construction with vacuum bagged PVC foam cores. The outer skins are hand-laid fiberglass with isophthalic polyester resin. The core is then bonded with regularly spaced couplers, linking the two skins into a single, sturdy unit. From the beginning Fountaine Pajot used isophthalic gelcoats on the hull and decks to prevent osmosis. Overall, the fiberglass sculpting is superb, the boat is filled with compound curves and yet you almost never see a stress crack. The molded nonskid is intricate and effective. A stout aluminum thwart supports the hulls forward with a channel running aft between the trampolines as a lead for the ground tackle. Many of the interior components are molded composites, a practical production technique but the result, at least cosmetically, is a somewhat sterile look down below. The interior is trimmed with mahogany panels but multihull builders are always battling the weight issue seeking better performance by keeping off the extra pounds. Eliminating copious amounts of heavy joinerwork is often the first step.

What to look for The first thing to look for is the cabin arrangement that you want. Most Venezias have four double cabins and two heads. Some have fitted the forwardmost sections of each hull with single berths, bringing the total number of private cabins to six. This is a dead giveaway that the boat was chartered as the two extra berths often served as crew quarters. The two aft cabins feature athwartship doubles while the forward cabins have fore and aft doubles. The rare owner's version will have converted one of these cabins into an office, and when you see this arrangement it's a tip off that the boat might well have been privately owned. Most Venezias you inspect will be ex-charter boats and that is why the boat is affordable, at least by cruising cat standards. Look for normal signs of wear and tear and factor in new fabric and possibly foam for all cushions, which is not an inexpensive retrofit item. Be wary of high hours on the Yanmar diesels, they are not very convenient to work on, although since they are saildrives they are easy to pull out and replace. Of course, you are talking about two engines, one in each hull, and that conveniently doubles the price. Be sure to check for excessive corrosion on the saildrives and carefully inspect the seals and small cooling filters. Pay particular notice to the escape hatches located in each head. These hatches, which allow you to "escape" in the unlikely event of a capsize, protrude beyond the hulls and take a beating from the wave action. They often leak and the completely inadequate plastic handles and latches have often been over tightened. We had a dangerous situation when one of these hatches gave way and we had to lash it in place with a broom handle. Also check the lashings on the forward trampolines, especially if the nets seem droopy.

On deck The deck and cockpit are simply huge and as you make your way about the boat you quickly realize that 42 feet of LOA times 23 feet of beam adds up to a lot acreage. The Venezia's wraparound cockpit can comfortably seat more people than you should ever have on a boat at one time. Although I must confess, on a long passage the shallow seats and fairly straight backs can leave you longing for a more traditional cockpit. There is usually a large table to port and plenty of storage space in the aft lockers and under the sole. The bulkhead-mounted helm is perched to starboard, with a fighting-chair-style helmsman's seat. The arrangement is definitely better suited for basketball players and almost unmanageable for short people. Each hull has wide swim steps for easy water access and also for hopping into the dinghy. Most boats have dinghy davits as well. The mainsheet traveler runs the entire width of the cockpit, along the aft coaming, a great feature for trimming the powerful main. All other sail controls are lead aft, usually to the port side coachroof. Fountaine Pajot used good quality deck hardware and sailing gear and most boats will have a combination of Lewmar and Goit fittings. Roller furling was standard on the headsail with slab reefing on the main. Standing rigging consists of a single upper, with jumpers, and partial backstays that make it difficult to pay out the boom. There are two deck lockers forward, although the placement of the water tank limits storage. The trampolines are a terrific place to sprawl out and relax, both at anchor and under way. I fondly remember an hour spent watching a pod of gamboling dolphins race between the hulls. I was stretched out on the tramps, the autopilot was driving and, as Dave Barry would say, "I am not making this up," one of the crew was playing the guitar and singing-I swear.

Down below The Venezia has the classic "galley up" arrangement in multihull speak. You enter the saloon through sliding glass doors-there is really no other way to describe them. The galley is to port and usually includes a two-burner stove, single sink and small front-loading 12-volt fridge. In typical French fashion, the galley works well despite limited counter space. (By the way, there are no fiddles because there's no heeling.) There is storage for pots and pans below while provisions are usually stashed under the settee cushions. A large oval table is to port with a wraparound settee. The nav station is also to port, with a partial bulkhead serving as a base for repeaters and instruments on one side and the less than state-of-the-art electrical panel on the other. The two aft cabins include a large hanging locker and storage with drawers below. Many similarly sized cruising cats locate the engines beneath these berths. By placing the engines in aft lazarettes, Joubert and Nivelt created a lot more storage space and improved the quality of life when motoring-the noisy beast is not right beneath your bed. The heads are about amidships in each hull and are not particularly roomy. Some owner versions have converted one head to a dedicated shower. The forward staterooms have berths running the entire width of the hull with smaller hanging lockers inboard. The areas forward are good for storing light gear, fenders, etc., unless they have been set up as sleeping quarters. Either way, main access is through a hatch on deck. We used these cabins for our cooks when we chartered two catamarans in Belize a few years ago. Incidentally, seven people were aboard a Venezia for eight days without any sense of crowding.

Engine The Venezia is powered by twin Yanmars. Most boats will have 28-horsepower models, although a fairly common upgrade or retrofit was to go with the three-cylinder 37-horsepower 3GM. Access is at the bottom of the lazarette, which is convenient unless of course anything is stored in the lazarette. Once the locker has been emptied and the wooden hatches opened access is still limited. At least with saildrives you don't need access to a stuffing box and stern tube. The batteries and main switches are usually in the port lazarette. Handling a cat with twin screws is a true pleasure, especially for traditional monohull sailors who have spent years trying to con their heavy, unwieldy, long-keeled boats in and out of marinas. With a screw in each hull it is possible to make the Venezia turn in its own length. Although there is some skill required to operate twin screws, once you get the hang of it you'll love it. Fuel capacity is around 90 gallons in two tanks, which translates into 45 gallons per engine, or about 60 hours of motoring. We motored long stretches on one delivery up the coast and it was not uncommon to steam along at 8 knots at moderate rpms in smooth water.

Under way The first time you sail a heavily loaded cruising catamaran you just might be disappointed. Not that there is anything wrong with the way they sail, they are just not as fast as you might expect. On three round trips up and down the coast, we averaged about 150 miles of non-current miles a day, or about 6 knots. At times we zipped along in low double digits and at other times we labored upwind at 5 knots. One feature that almost everyone loves is the lack of heeling. A feature of the Venezia that isn't as loveable is the quick motion in a chop and the slamming of water ricocheting between the hulls. We were always able to carry more sail than I expected and by the time I brought the boat back south for the last time I realized I didn't need to reef the main until the wind was nearly 20 knots. The boat sails upwind well with a flat, high-cut 105-percent No. 3. Overlapping genoas are not worth the trouble, it is far more efficient to pop the asymmetrical chute as soon as the wind opens up. One passage north we flew the chute day and night for three days and kept the boat moving smartly despite light airs.

Conclusion I like the Venezia very much and I would strongly consider buying one if I were in the market for a cruising catamaran. It is a terrific family cruiser, well built and a solid financial value. I suspect my daughters would like having their "own side" of the boat. And keeping your gin and tonic upright when sailing is not a bad selling feature either.

Venezia 42 is a 42 ′ 3 ″ / 12.9 m catamaran sailboat designed by Joubert-Nivelt and Flahault Design & Associates and built by Fountaine Pajot between 1992 and 2000.

Rig and Sails

Auxilary power, accomodations, calculations.

The theoretical maximum speed that a displacement hull can move efficiently through the water is determined by it's waterline length and displacement. It may be unable to reach this speed if the boat is underpowered or heavily loaded, though it may exceed this speed given enough power. Read more.

Classic hull speed formula:

Hull Speed = 1.34 x √LWL

Max Speed/Length ratio = 8.26 ÷ Displacement/Length ratio .311 Hull Speed = Max Speed/Length ratio x √LWL

Sail Area / Displacement Ratio

A measure of the power of the sails relative to the weight of the boat. The higher the number, the higher the performance, but the harder the boat will be to handle. This ratio is a "non-dimensional" value that facilitates comparisons between boats of different types and sizes. Read more.

SA/D = SA ÷ (D ÷ 64) 2/3

• SA : Sail area in square feet, derived by adding the mainsail area to 100% of the foretriangle area (the lateral area above the deck between the mast and the forestay).
• D : Displacement in pounds.

Ballast / Displacement Ratio

A measure of the stability of a boat's hull that suggests how well a monohull will stand up to its sails. The ballast displacement ratio indicates how much of the weight of a boat is placed for maximum stability against capsizing and is an indicator of stiffness and resistance to capsize.

Ballast / Displacement * 100

Displacement / Length Ratio

A measure of the weight of the boat relative to it's length at the waterline. The higher a boat’s D/L ratio, the more easily it will carry a load and the more comfortable its motion will be. The lower a boat's ratio is, the less power it takes to drive the boat to its nominal hull speed or beyond. Read more.

D/L = (D ÷ 2240) ÷ (0.01 x LWL)³

• D: Displacement of the boat in pounds.
• LWL: Waterline length in feet

Comfort Ratio

This ratio assess how quickly and abruptly a boat’s hull reacts to waves in a significant seaway, these being the elements of a boat’s motion most likely to cause seasickness. Read more.

Comfort ratio = D ÷ (.65 x (.7 LWL + .3 LOA) x Beam 1.33 )

• D: Displacement of the boat in pounds
• LOA: Length overall in feet
• Beam: Width of boat at the widest point in feet

Capsize Screening Formula

This formula attempts to indicate whether a given boat might be too wide and light to readily right itself after being overturned in extreme conditions. Read more.

CSV = Beam ÷ ³√(D / 64)

Replaced with the BELIZE 43 (2000).

Overall rating

I was able to reserve the boat on short notice. Owner was very responsive and assisted in arranging food service. Boat was very comfortable and ran well. Skipper and cook were great and we had a relaxing trip up and down the coast. Only negative was the lower deck seemed the boat may have been sitting for a while, smelled unpleasant. Otherwise this was a great experience and would do it again.

We thank Ronnie for his booking and hope that he had a good time with us :-)

Please enjoy your holiday here! The entire process from scheduling, organizing food, and of course the sailing, was delightful. Captain Christian was wonderful company; he was accommodating, engaging, and thoughtful, yet it never felt as though he was intrusive in any way. I truly appreciate how lovely Magali and Christian are!

Heather booked our boat for a couple of days with her partner. Both of them were very friendly and lovely people. We would be looking forward to hosting them again soon!

Easy to manoeuvre on your own or with a small crew

The Astréa 42 makes the most of her size to offer an unprecedented level of comfort

When the Fountaine Pajot teams designed this yacht , their objective was clear: to offer the best combination of aesthetics, comfort and seaworthiness in a 42-foot catamaran . The result has exceeded expectations. Not only is her sleek silhouette easy on the eye, but the Astréa 42 is packed with features and fittings that you would typically only find on much larger catamarans . However, at 12.58 metres, she is still very easy to handle, and whoever takes the helm experiences a true connection with the boat while being right next to the sundeck where guests can keep them company. Time to head out to sea!

Innovative, high-tech composite materials constitute most of the structure of our sailing catamarans: hulls, flybridge, decks, bulkheads and more. Fountaine Pajot has perfected a resin injection and infusion technique, an advanced technology that gives our boats all their robustness. Thanks to this expertise, we can make our catamarans considerably lighter while maintaining consistent quality . Injection also makes it possible to meet the most stringent environmental requirements, in line with the commitments of the Fountaine Pajot Group.

Sailing catamarans from 40 to 50 feet are built at the Aigrefeuille headquarters, a few kilometres from La Rochelle. Catamaran yachts from 51 to 80 feet are built in La Rochelle, France, where they benefit from a slipway.

It is essential to define your sailing program: define the size of the crew on board, the level of sailing knowledge, the sailing project and the target sailing area. Every project is different. Whether you want to enjoy a large Owner’s suite, invite many friends and family on board, or telecommute during your voyage, the Fountaine Pajot cruising catamarans can be adapted to suit your needs. Benefit from reliable, seaworthy and spacious catamarans! Find out more about our Owners’ testimonials here

The ergonomics of Fountaine Pajot catamarans have been designed to facilitate manoeuvring at the helm, enabling a small crew (2 persons) to manoeuvre the boat easily, both in port and at sea. The unique design of the helm station allows good communication between the aft cockpit and the Fly relaxation areas. Of course, your level of navigation will determine your ability to sail with two or more persons!

Our electric catamarans now feature a large surface area of solar panels, up to 2000 WC, perfectly integrated into the design of the coachroof. Combined with equipment such as wind turbines or hydro-generators, they compensate for the energy consumption generated by on-board use during cruising.

Catamaran Venezia 42

Le voilier Venezia 42 est un catamaran de croisière habitable construit par le chantier français Fountaine Pajot. Cet Aileron est fabriqué par le constructeur naval Joubert & Nivelt et est assemblé en un sloop d’une longueur de 12,6 m. La production a commencé en 1992. 109 navires ont été produits.

“Vous ne pouvez rien réclamer de la mer, vous devez donc pouvoir tout réclamer de votre bateau.”

Le tandem Joubert-Nivelt a nécessité dix-huit mois de conception et d’innombrables modèles pour produire le “Venezia”, ​​le nouveau 42 pieds du chantier Fountaine-Pajot, conçu pour remplacer “Fidji” et “Casamance” et relever ce difficile défi.
