Fountaine Pajot MY4.S: BoatTEST Review
Overview
The Fontaine Peugeot MY4S is a catamaran designed primarily for cruising couples seeking a comfortable and efficient vessel capable of cruising around 20 knots. It balances speed and fuel economy, offering more pace than slow trolling speeds without pushing into high-performance territory. This boat aims to provide a versatile and enjoyable experience for extended cruising.
Helm and Bridge Features
The helm station features double-wide seating with individual flip bolsters, providing comfort for the captain and companion. The console is equipped with a 12-inch Garmin touchscreen multifunction display that integrates vessel lighting and electrical system controls, complemented by a secondary Shiber screen. A Garmin VHF radio is installed but lacks a dedicated mounting clip, which could improve accessibility. The helm also includes autopilot controls, ignition switches, and an AIS control with options for transmitting or silent mode. The steering wheel is mounted on a fixed base, with Yanmar engine displays positioned above. Engine controls are conveniently located to the left of the helm and can be synchronized for single-stick operation, which also serves as an armrest. Additional features include a white-to-red adjustable reading light, bow thruster controls, and mechanical switches for essential functions such as the horn and windshield wipers. Companion seating adjacent to the helm enhances social interaction during navigation.
Engine Compartment and Systems
The MY4S is powered by twin Yanmar 4LV 250 horsepower diesel engines, each with a 2.43:1 reduction transmission. The starboard engine compartment is compact but well-organized, housing the main engine, an 8 kW generator, dual C-strainers for both generator and engine, and battery storage. The port side mirrors this layout but replaces the generator with an inverter, battery charger, house batteries, and a hot water heater. Both sides provide clear access to running gear and hydraulic systems for the swim platform. Centrally located on the deck is storage for a six-person life raft, emphasizing safety and preparedness.
Exterior Design and Deck Layout
The vessel measures 36.1 feet in length overall with a beam of 16.8 feet and a draft of 2.6 feet. Freeboard measures 5 feet 4 inches at the stern and 6 feet 5 inches at the bow, contributing to good headroom below decks. The side decks feature three high steps, a practical trade-off for interior space, and are equipped with grab rails that exceed ABYC height standards for safety. Each side includes three 12-inch cleats, with additional cleats positioned at the bow and centerline for secure mooring. The design emphasizes both functionality and safety for ease of movement around the vessel.
Performance and Handling
During sea trials with an estimated test weight of 23,105 pounds (including 67% fuel and two people aboard), the MY4S achieved a top speed of 21.4 knots at 3,800 RPM. Cruising speed was observed at 14.5 knots with a fuel burn of 12.2 gallons per hour, translating to 1.2 nautical miles per gallon and an estimated range of approximately 340 nautical miles while maintaining a 10% fuel reserve from the total 316-gallon capacity. Acceleration tests showed the boat reaching 20 miles per hour in 10 seconds. The boat demonstrated excellent maneuverability, requiring minimal use of the bow thruster despite the wide engine spacing. Handling in rough seas was notable; at speeds around 13 to 14 knots, a phenomenon described as a 'sneeze effect' occurs due to air pockets beneath the hull, causing spray over the bow. Increasing speed to about 18 knots allowed the boat to slice through waves more smoothly, improving ride comfort. In following seas, the boat requires attentive steering to maintain control, while beam seas produce a wet but stable ride due to wave impact and wind-driven spray. Overall, the MY4S proved to be a capable and enjoyable vessel even in challenging sea conditions.
Conclusion
The Fontaine Peugeot MY4S offers a well-rounded package for cruising couples seeking a manageable, comfortable, and efficient catamaran. Its thoughtful helm layout, robust twin-engine setup, and practical deck design contribute to ease of operation and safety. Performance testing revealed a boat that handles well in varied sea states, combining respectable speed with fuel efficiency and good maneuverability. The MY4S’s ability to remain enjoyable and responsive in rough conditions underscores its suitability as a reliable cruising platform.
