The 2021 Fountaine Pajot Isla 40 "Monarch" is a well-equipped Owner's Version (3 cabin / 3 head) that entered service in January 2022 and proved her pedigree with an Atlantic crossing on her own hull. Powered by twin Volvo D1-30F engines and complemented by a factory-installed 7.5 kW Onan/Cummins generator, she offers full climate control with three-zone air conditioning, a 2000W Victron inverter/charger, and a robust US-spec electrical system with 50-amp shore power. The sought-after starboard owner's hull features a queen berth aft, private electric head, and separate walk-in shower, while the port hull provides two additional en-suite cabins - making her equally suited for private cruising or charter.
