Highlights
The Aqua Panda is no ordinary boat; she's a Fountaine Pajot Lucia 40, a nautical gem launched in 2016. Picture sleek, modern lines cutting through the waves—a beacon of maritime elegance and adventure.
This 40-foot beauty is a masterclass in design, offering not just a mode of transportation but a lifestyle. Her dynamic lines and refined interior style make her stand out in any harbor, turning heads and sparking envy among fellow seafarers. The Lucia 40 boasts generous volumes, providing ample space for liveaboard living and relaxation. The main salon is bathed in natural light, thanks to its clever design offering near 360-degree views—the perfect spot for soaking in the beauty of the open sea.
Now, let's talk about the heart of the Aqua Panda—the cockpit and aft deck. Imagine a large, covered space that seamlessly opens through expansive doors, transforming the yacht into a vast living area. It's not just a deck; it's an extension of our floating home, where we gather to share stories, enjoy meals, and bask in the glory of Caribbean sunsets. This award-winning cockpit offers ample space, comparable to that of other 45- to 55-foot yachts, making it the ideal area where we spend most of our time.
As we explore the nooks and crannies of this seafaring abode, you'll discover two master staterooms in each hull—one for Kata and Panda (your charming hostess/cook-skipper). Each stateroom is a haven of comfort, featuring centerline queen berths and private heads. And here's a little secret for those seeking a taste of the Aqua Panda life: two master bedrooms are available for rent, each with its own toilet and shower. There's also a cozy third bedroom with its own shower, but you'll need to share one of the other toilets with another guest.
But what sets the Aqua Panda apart is its commitment to self-sufficiency. No need to worry about running out of water in the middle of the ocean—our trusty water-maker ensures a steady supply. And with solar panels adorning the deck, we harness the power of the sun to keep our adventures eco-friendly. So, whether you're seeking a luxurious escape or a taste of the seafaring life, the Aqua Panda welcomes you aboard. Anchors aweigh, and let the maritime magic begin!
