Fountaine Pajot Elba 45

2023 Fountaine Pajot Elba 45 Quatuor, Comfort Version (Highest Factory Spec) with 15 charters booked for the season!!

Delivered in November of 2023, "Family Therapy" has been operated as a private and limited charter vessel having run only a few charters throughout her short time on the water. Sporting 4 cabins and 4 heads she maximizes her cabin space and would make a magnificent world cruiser for a family looking to explore the islands. Potential buyers do have the option to leave "family Therapy" in a managed charter program in the Virgin Islands to offset the cost of ownership for a period of time.
