Fountaine Pajot Sanya 57 | Bareboat Charter Opportunity - Fort Lauderdale, FL
This Sanya 57 pairs a proven cruising platform with comprehensive recent investment, offered turnkey with an established bareboat charter operation in one of the country's busiest charter markets. Based in Fort Lauderdale with immediate access to the Bahamas and greater Caribbean, she has been extensively updated and well maintained throughout.
Fountaine Pajot's Sanya 57 has long been regarded as one of the most capable cruising catamarans in her class. This example is configured for serious use, not just showroom appeal. The salon offers 360-degree sightlines and a fully equipped galley suited to extended provisioning, while the cockpit and flybridge deliver the deck space owners and charter operators require for guest flow and crew workflow. Below deck, a five-stateroom, five-head layout sleeps 8 to 12 guests with proper separation between owner, guest, and crew accommodations, supported by a dedicated crew cabin.
Currently operated as a bareboat charter vessel, she has earned a reputation as one of the most in-demand boats in Fort Lauderdale's competitive charter scene. Beyond her cruising capability, she presents a genuine income-producing opportunity with a proven charter history, whether the goal is to offset ownership costs or expand an existing charter operation.
