Description of Igor's catamaran

Catamaran Fountaine Pajot Lavezzi 40 11.96m

Catamaran "Sampei" - WHERE COMFORT MEETS ADVENTURE! Experience unforgettable sailing in complete comfort with your family, friends, or colleagues, and make your dreams of ultimate sea adventures come true. SHALLOW DRAFT The catamaran's shallow draft enables access to shallow waters and secluded anchorages that monohulls can’t reach, making it ideal for discovering hidden gems and stunning coastlines. Additionally, overnight stays at anchor rather than in marinas can offer significant cost savings! PERFORMANCE AND SPEED Sampei can outperform many monohulls, particularly when sailing upwind, due to its lightweight build and double hull, which minimizes drag. Its dual engines positioned at the stern give it remarkable agility, facilitating easy docking and maneuvering, even in difficult conditions, and allowing it to turn on the spot. SELF-SUFFICIENCY Thanks to the upgrade with high-performance solar panels, Sampei can be completely energy self-sufficient for an entire week. STABILITY A catamaran provides a more stable and comfortable sailing experience due to its double-hull design, which significantly reduces rocking compared to monohulls. It handles rough seas better, allows for smoother sailing and does not heel, which is especially important for those prone to seasickness. COMFORT Due to its greater width, the catamaran boasts larger living areas and more privacy. This makes it ideal for families or groups who want more comfort and personal space. The extensive deck areas are perfect for sunbathing, dining, socializing, or simply enjoying the view. The catamaran drifts less at anchor, which ensures a more comfortable and pleasant stay on the vessel when it is anchored. A large hardtop canopy on the deck provides protection from all weather conditions, and most importantly, creates pleasant shade. SAFETY The stability of the catamaran ensures the safety of movement for the crew and passengers on the entire boat. If one of the two engines fails, the other can still enable continued navigation and return to the coast. With one engine all electrical wiring and battery charging on the vessel also work smoothly. FOUNTAINE PAJOT, a French manufacturer with a 60-year tradition, is celebrated for catamarans that blend cutting-edge design with an optimal balance of comfort and sailing performance. The Lavezzi 40 is one of their most acclaimed models, known for its lightweight construction (6,500 kg) and exceptional buoyancy, setting the standard in its class. It features a generous sail area (90 m² upwind) and ample bridge deck clearance, ensuring smooth, stable sailing with minimal heeling. This allows passengers to sit comfortably and enjoy the journey without the discomfort of excessive rocking, tilting, or seasickness, even in challenging seas. Both the outdoor and indoor tables comfortably seat six, with room for eight when needed. The wide trampoline provides an unmatched experience, especially during sailing, letting passengers gaze at the sea below. Sampei is uniquely customized, boasting a spacious hard-top over the cockpit that provides insulation and side ventilation, offering a refreshing coolness in summer and an ideal spot for sunbathing or social gatherings. All control lines are routed to the helm, enabling the operator to manage navigation from the best vantage point, aided by modern electronic instruments and a high-performance 900W electric winch for efficient handling of the sails. IMPORTANT information: To hire this boat without a skipper, it is important to physically have a valid boat license and a radio VHF license.

Igor is an incredibly kind and dedicated host – we couldn’t have asked for a better skipper for our bachelorette trip! He truly went above and beyond to make the day special: the catamaran was beautifully decorated, which completely surprised and moved the bride-to-be. Thanks to Igor, we had an unforgettable day on the Slovenian coast – with swimming, sailing, dancing, music, and even a beautiful sunset spot. Every detail was thought of, and we felt truly taken care of from beginning to end. Thank you so much, Igor – we’re so grateful for this amazing experience! 🌊✨

Örülök, hogy tetszett! Íme a fordítás angolul: --- We spent a wonderful day with Igor in the Gulf of Trieste. His boat was very clean and comfortable, and being a catamaran, it felt especially safe for families with young children. Igor was extremely professional, introduced us to the secrets of sailing, and was flexible regarding the stops. The highlight of the tour was the surprise appearance of dolphins near Piran. We will definitely return for another trip!

Great experience through and through on our weekend stay on the boat with Igor, who, as a captain and owner was not just great companion but also friend, who showed us, explained us and were patient enough with everything those 7 land rats was amazed about on their first trip on the sea. Thank you!

Excellent experience! We were a group of 10 people, 6 adults and 4 children. Igor, the owner and captain, made sure we had a great time, always ensuring everyone's safety. The catamaran lived up to expectations, very comfortable and clean. We saw some really beautiful places, and the kids had a fantastic time! Highly recommended!

We booked a day trip with Igor on his catamaran on June 29, 2025. Our boat trip was a highlight. The owner's friendliness gave us a warm welcome from the very beginning. The food on board was excellent, with a wide selection and outstanding quality. We are more than satisfied and can highly recommend Igor. Thanks again, and we look forward to the next time.

I organized a surprise birthday for my partner on the SAMPEI boat with Igor as skipper. From the first moment he proved to be professional, competent and with his smile he won us all over. My 11-year-old son was pampered, he tried to drive the catamaran and saw Igor fishing! We were a group of freedivers and Igor proved to be attentive to our needs, finding us perfect sites for our freediving, always safe and suggestive. His knowledge of the sea is truly profound. In addition to being an excellent navigator, he is also a very nice guitarist and an excellent singer! The evenings on board turned into magical moments, with live music under the stars and a unique atmosphere that we will hardly forget. His presence on board was discreet but always reassuring, capable of putting everyone at ease. We highly recommend Igor to anyone who wants to live a sailing experience in the name of safety, fun, music and the discovery of the most authentic sea. THANK YOU IGOR!

About me

I am in love with the sea, with fishing and with boats. I began to sail at 6 with the optimist sailing boats. During the time I passed to bigger boats until I owned a 13 m Ketch monohull classic boat. 3 years ago I bought a catamaran of 12 mt. As a skipper I work approximately 15 years and my specialty is the Adriatic sea.
