A 2010 Lipari 41 listed from a new catamaran hub with no bridges between the dock and the open Atlantic.
The 2010 Fountaine Pajot Lipari 41 S/V Mermaid’s Booty is now listed through Conor Dugan of The Multihull Company, working from a newly opened office in Fort Pierce, Florida. In a recent walkthrough of the location, Conor makes a compelling case that where a catamaran lives matters almost as much as the boat itself — and Fort Pierce has quietly become one of the more practical homes for cats on the U.S. East Coast.
A Cruising-Ready Layout
The Lipari 41 has long been a favorite in the Fountaine Pajot lineup for owners who want genuine bluewater ability without stepping up to a 45- or 50-footer. Four cabins, a bright saloon, and the classic FP forward cockpit-and-lounge arrangement make it a boat that lives large for its length, whether the plan is Bahamas hops, Caribbean seasons, or coastal cruising out of Florida.
Why Fort Pierce Matters
Conor points out something that owners of larger multihulls learn quickly: bridge clearance and beam restrictions dictate where you can realistically keep a cat. Fort Pierce has no fixed bridges between the marina and the inlet — a straight two-mile run to open ocean with no vertical draft restrictions. For a boat like the Lipari 41, that means no route-planning gymnastics to get out sailing.
The Safe Harbor Harbortown facility offers both DIY and full-service yard work, with a 150-ton travelift that accommodates beams up to about 30 feet. Anything larger can go next door to the brand-new Derecktor’s yard. For a prospective buyer, that translates to easy surveys, straightforward haul-outs, and short walks between dock and travelift well — a real advantage when you’re evaluating or commissioning a boat.

Amenities and Ownership Experience
Beyond the practical yard access, the Safe Harbor facility recently completed a renovation adding a gym, pool, captain’s lounge, and on-site restaurant — the kind of dockside living that makes long weekends aboard easy. For an owner using the Lipari 41 as a part-time cruiser or getting her prepped for a longer voyage, it’s a comfortable base.
