Over a year ago now, Fountaine Pajot launched its first hybrid ICE/electric cruising catamaran, the Aura 51 Smart Electric, a programme we are continuing to roll out across the entire range. In this podcast, we look at the day-to-day running of this pioneering technology, the benefits it brings in terms of self-sufficiency and freedom, and the central role it plays in Fountaine Pajot’s quest to go carbon-free. With diagrams, figures and demonstrations, you’ll find out everything there is to know about the Smart Electric solution. Come aboard the Astréa 42 Smart Electric for a sea trial and enjoy a demonstration in real-life conditions.
