Rise is a 42ft (13m) sailing catamaran built in 2020 by Fountaine Pajot. With 2 cabins – 2 Queen – she accommodates 4 guests for multi-day sailing and 10 for day charters, with a crew of 2 running the boat and looking after everyone aboard.
The Sailing Life
There is something distinct about a sailing catamaran charter – the quiet of moving under wind power, the stability of two hulls, and the shallow draft that opens up anchorages deeper vessels cannot access. Rise cruises at 7 knots and offers an open, airy layout where the galley, salon, and cockpit flow together naturally. This is hands-on sailing if you want it, or a fully crewed experience if you would rather sit back on the trampoline net and watch the coastline pass. Features include a swim platform and a BBQ area.
Water Toys & Exploration
3 water toys including a kneeboard are aboard. The Highfield 320 tender extends exploration to nearby reefs, beaches, and coastal villages. The catamaran’s shallow draft means Rise can anchor in places that most yachts cannot reach, giving guests access to quieter, more pristine spots.
