Nautilus Yacht Management is proud to present this beautiful example of the immensely popular Fontaine Pajot 44 Grand large.
Oniva belongs to a Swiss family who started the adventure of a lifetime with their three young children in 2012 in Europe, after much searching for the perfect boat and discovering Oniva, who was as new as she had spent a large part of her young life in dry dock and used very little during the summer. They proceeded to upgrade her systems when necessary and complement her inventory with items essential to the safety of themselves and their three very little children.
After many adventures and a magnificent journey half way around the world, they are now ready to say goodbye to their precious home and return to Europe and to 'reality'.
Oniva has always been maintained with the utmost care, and is sure to impress. Ready to keep going around the world, or to become your home on the water in your favorite bay, she is presently in Fiji, but on her way to New Caledonia and Australia unless sold prior.
Oniva’s history
Oniva is a sailing catamaran from Fountaine-Pajot, an Orana 44. She was ordered as a four cabin version in 2009 and delivered in Marseille (France) to her first owner who sailed in Southern France for two years after having improved the equipment of the boat and upgraded the starboard hull into a master’s layout with extensive storage and dressing.
This boat has never been chartered.
In early 2011 we saw Oniva offered for sale in southern France by her first owner. On inspection, we found the boat in practically new condition and were very much impressed by the storage capacity she offered for our Swiss family round the world trip planned.
For six months, the boat was left on the hard in the Port Pin-Rolland ship yard (South of France) and prepared for an extensive five-year and three children family cruise by the trade winds.
Since the summer of 2012 we have been underway across the Mediterranean, the Atlantic, the Caribbean and the Pacific Ocean with Oniva. We are now in Fiji and would be ready to deliver the boat anywhere from there to Australia, where we plan to arrive in November.
Before starting our trip and on the way we have made many improvements as listed further down this document under “upgrades”
Oniva’s description:
SAILING QUALITIES
Oniva, or the Orana 44, is a cruising catamaran with good sailing performance.
Her downwind sail (Code-D) permits her to achieve 9 knots with ease and comfort in 15 to 18 knots of wind. With 20+ knots of wind, the boat achieves 10 knots without being pushed. A direct access to the 3 place helm seat offer very good visibility behind which there is a reclining solarium. All controls lead to the helm for an easier and safer boat and sail handling.
A superb bluewater cruising catamaran built by one of the most well renowned yards for this type of boat offering a well-equipped layout with multiple bedrooms and bathrooms. The cockpit features a large table seating 8 and open directly through a large sliding door on the same level to the saloon and the galley with a panoramic view through wrap around windows. This boat will take you in considerable style, security and comfort wherever you want to go. Built with long term cruising in mind she is built to last with everything well-constructed and heavy deck gear throughout, she is capable of proving all the comfort you want from a cruising catamaran with good sailing performance to match.
ACCOMMODATION
There are two accommodation plans, one with four cabins and bathrooms (probably aimed at the charter market) and the boat shown here with three cabins and three bathrooms. Each hull has a bulkhead about 2m back from the bow, an excellent safety feature. With the three-cabin set-up, the area forward in the starboard hull can be arranged with a single berth or as a workshop and storage area. The owners of this boat have a pantry here.
The interior is light and bright. The saloon is a nice place to be, with panoramic views, white mouldings and light timber trim. The cabins, too, are roomy. The owner's cabin, aft in the starboard hull, has the berth mounted across the boat, beneath the molding, which provides the raised steering platform. The furniture is not bonded to the hull, which provides easy access to the electronics and equipment and make the Orana 44 an easy boat to service.
The galley is wide, set near the sliding door for easy access to the cockpit.The 180L fridge is excellent, with a piano-style top-loading lid and sliding mesh trays so you can find what you want without rummaging. The integral freezer holds 30L, and an extra 90L independent freezer has been installed. The chart table with excellent outside view is facing forward.
The helmsman's seat holds three, and the raised helm position provides excellent view on all four corners. All the winches and controls are led here for easy single-handing. Behind the helm is a sun bed. Alongside it, is a seating and storage bench. The cockpit is spacious with a large table sitting easily eight.
Simplicity is the Orana 44's theme. The boat lacks for nothing but everything has been carefully and stylishly designed.
