Sowilo is a 2020 Fountaine Pajot Astrea 42 Owners Version, offered for sale by her third private owner and never chartered. She is immaculately maintained and fully equipped for serious bluewater or off-grid cruising, with a thoughtfully upgraded systems suite including solar, lithium batteries, dual watermakers, and more. The layout is the highly sought-after “Maestro” version featuring a spacious owner’s hull to starboard with a king-size bed, generous storage, a walk-in shower, and a private head. The port hull includes two queen-size guest cabins, each with en-suite bathrooms — one featuring a separate shower and the other a combined wet head.
The saloon offers 360° views, ample natural light, and a full nav station with integrated systems monitoring. A U-shaped galley is well-appointed with a large countertop, three independent fridge/freezer units, gas oven, stovetop, and additional cooking appliances including a pizza oven, plancha grill, and air fryer. The cockpit is shaded and spacious, with wraparound seating, a cockpit table, and access to both the helm and top deck, which offers dual sunloungers and panoramic views. A forward cockpit and large trampolines complete the exterior lounging areas.
Sowilo is equipped for energy independence and comfort, with 1,300 watts of solar, a Victron lithium house bank, a Victron Multiplus inverter/charger, Cerbo GX monitoring system, and a 13.5kW Onan generator. Electrical systems are based around 240V/50Hz AC and 12V DC, and include a shore transformer for worldwide compatibility. The vessel has air conditioning throughout, a small washing machine, and a full suite of Victron and Garmin electronics including autopilot, radar, AIS, and multiple MFDs.
Propulsion comes from twin Volvo D2-50 diesel engines with saildrives, complemented by a new Yamaha 25HP outboard on the tender. Recent upgrades include new anchor chain, trampoline, and various system services (generator, watermakers, engines). A wide array of tools, spares, safety gear, galleyware, and cruising equipment are included, making this a truly turn-key vessel.
Sowilo is currently stored on the hard in Antigua and is priced at $584,000. She is ideal for a couple or family seeking an immediately available, ocean-ready cruising catamaran.
