Fountaine Pajot's most successful entry-level catamaran in their 40-year history. Replaced the Lavezzi 40 in 2010, itself replaced by the Lucia 40 in 2016. Now a strong used market value play.
The Lipari 41 entered production in 2010 as the replacement for the Lavezzi 40 in Fountaine Pajot's entry-level sailing catamaran slot. Designed by Joubert-Nivelt with later Berret-Racoupeau influence on the Evolution variant, the Lipari 41 became one of FP's most successful sales in the 40-year history of the shipyard — production estimates range from 300 to 400+ hulls during the 2010–2016 run.
The Lipari 41 hit the sweet spot in many ways: spacious accommodations relative to its peers, a competitive price point, well-proven Volvo D1-30 / D2-40 engines, and a saildrive setup that proved reliable. The boat was particularly successful in Mediterranean charter fleets — most ex-charter Liparis on the resale market spent their first five to seven years in Croatian, Greek, or Caribbean charter operations.
The Lipari 41 Evolution (2013–2016) introduced refinements borrowed from the Helia 44 — improved cockpit design, larger aft cabin windows, and a redesigned galley layout. Evolution-spec Liparis command a meaningful premium on the used market over original-spec boats.
Specifications are manufacturer figures for a base specification Lipari 41. Individual boats vary based on year, equipment, and owner modifications. Always verify against the specific boat's documentation during survey.
The Lipari 41 is offered in multiple layouts. Choosing between them is the most important decision in a Lipari 41 purchase, and meaningfully affects price, resale, and how the boat actually lives.
Starboard hull dedicated to a single owner suite with double berth, ensuite head with separate shower, and storage. Port hull contains two guest cabins with shared head. Total of 3 cabins, 2 heads. The dominant private-use layout. Trades at a 15–22% premium to charter version.
Both hulls split into two cabins each with four heads. Sleeps 8 guests plus crew. Designed for charter operations — the dominant layout in original sales. Most ex-charter Liparis on the resale market are 4-cabin versions.

Browse all Fountaine Pajots →MS25L saildrives have specific 5–7 year service intervals. A 2010–2012 Lipari is now on its second or third saildrive service. Verify documentation; expect to budget €4,000–€6,500 per side if service is overdue.
Charter Liparis commonly show 6,000–10,000+ hours by year 12–14. At those levels, full engine replacement is a realistic conversation — budget €18,000–€25,000 per side. Verify service history and consider engine survey on any 4,000+ hour boat.
Original 2010–2012 sails are well past service life — most Liparis have had at least one full sail replacement, possibly two. Standing rigging on 12+ year boats should be inspected for replacement (every 10–12 years).
The Lipari 41 has reasonable bridgedeck clearance for its size. Inspect for any signs of grounding damage and stress cracks. Older charter boats sometimes show pounding wear from rough-water operation.
Charter Liparis have entry-level B&G or Raymarine packages from the 2010–2014 era — most are now obsolete. Budget €6,000–€14,000 for full electronics refit. Owner-version boats typically have substantially better packages.
Lipari 41 Evolution (2013+) has improved cockpit, larger aft cabin windows, and redesigned galley. Verify whether a specific boat is Evolution spec or original — Evolution boats command meaningful premiums and are generally more refined platforms.
Used Lipari 41 prices typically range from €135k for a 2010 charter-version with very high engine hours, up to €340k for a 2015–2016 Maestro Evolution owner-version. The Lipari 41 represents strong value — meaningful discount to the Lucia 40 successor, with broadly similar capability.
The Lucia 40 is the Lipari 41's direct successor (2016). The Lucia is slightly smaller in nominal length but has more interior volume, a larger cockpit, and bigger windows — generally a more refined boat. The Lipari trades at a meaningful discount on the used market. For budget buyers, the Lipari remains credible; for buyers wanting more modern systems, the Lucia is the choice.
The Lipari 41 Evolution is the second-generation Lipari (2013–2016) with refinements borrowed from the contemporary Helia 44 — improved cockpit design, larger aft cabin windows, redesigned galley layout. Evolution-spec Liparis command a meaningful premium on the used market over original-spec 2010–2012 boats.
The Lipari 41 was sold in two layouts: Maestro 3-cabin (owner suite in starboard hull) and Quatuor 4-cabin (both hulls split symmetrically — the dominant charter layout).
Yes — well-maintained Lipari 41s are credible cruising catamarans. Maestro 3-cabin versions work well for couples; the boat has a proven track record of long-distance cruising including ARC participation. The challenge is finding a well-maintained example after 12+ years of charter or cruising use.
Yes — many Liparis have completed Atlantic crossings. The basic platform is offshore-capable. Standard 300L fuel and 420L water is on the marginal side; most ARC-prep Liparis have been upgraded with auxiliary tankage and watermakers.
