Fountaine Pajot Saba 50 catamaran – British Virgin Islands

Yacht Overview

We’re happy to recommend the Fountaine Pajot Saba 50 catamaran for guests who want a comfortable, modern sailing stay in the British Virgin Islands. Based on our experience with crews and charterers, this vessel hits a sweet spot: it feels spacious onboard, yet it’s still easy to manage at sea. We have seen many parties and family groups choose her specifically for the way she supports life on board during the day and at anchor—calm, practical, and very “vacation-ready.”

The Saba 50 is a 2019-built catamaran with 8 cabins, offering 12 berths in the cabins plus 4 additional berths when needed. We advise planning ahead if your group is larger, because the extra berths can be a great solution, but they should be discussed early so everyone is comfortable! According to us, this layout works especially well for mixed groups—some want privacy, others prefer to stay together.

Her size is 14.98 m in length with a 7.99 m beam, and that beam is exactly what gives the onboard feeling of room. For sailing performance, we state with certainty that her sail setup is a highlight: a full batten mainsail and a roller genoa. Actually, we’ve noticed that this combination makes handling more straightforward and keeps sail trim responsive when conditions change.

For location, she’s ideally suited for chartering in the British Virgin Islands, where the cruising grounds are famous and the days can be wonderfully varied—smooth passages one moment, lively wind the next! If you want a reliable catamaran for rental with a modern build and a proven sail arrangement, our guests who have trusted us so far usually feel right at home aboard the Saba 50.
