Cannes Yachting Festival: New Sailing Yachts and Catamarans to Charter in 2027

This week, we visited the Cannes Yachting Festival to discover the latest models presented by the shipyards and meet our partners.

We inspected the boats from the Voile Evasion perspective: comfort, quality of the accommodation, ease of movement and genuine suitability for charter. Here are the six models selected for your next sailing holiday.

Good to know: availability in 2027 will depend on delivery dates, destinations and the fleets selected by our partners.

Three new catamarans to charter in 2027

Lagoon 47: sociable and versatile

Unveiled in 2026, the Lagoon 47 succeeds the highly popular Lagoon 46. We particularly appreciated the seamless flow between its living areas, from the forward cockpit to the flybridge.

The Lagoon 47 is now available in a five-cabin version with an additional skipper’s cabin—ideal for large families and groups sailing with a skipper.

We are awaiting confirmation of the first charter destinations for 2027. Our Corsican partner has already confirmed that it will offer the Lagoon 47 in 2027.

Bali 5.2: exceptional living space

The Bali 5.2 features a large aft door connecting the saloon and cockpit, a spacious solid foredeck and a flybridge designed for sailing and relaxation.

Available with up to six cabins, it is well suited to large families and groups. The first units are already available in the Mediterranean and Caribbean, and the choice should expand in 2027.

Fountaine Pajot FP55: a premium experience

Presented as a world premiere in Cannes, the new Fountaine Pajot FP55 was designed for long cruises. We appreciated its generous spaces and easy circulation between the saloon, cockpits and flybridge.

It will appeal to guests seeking a premium cruise with a skipper or crew. We are working with our partners to identify the first units available in 2027.

Jeanneau Sun Odyssey 385: simple and reassuring

The Sun Odyssey 385 introduces a new generation of Jeanneau yachts. Its deck separates manoeuvring areas from relaxation spaces, while the cockpit promises greater comfort underway and at anchor.

Four interior layouts and several rigging options suit couples, families and small groups, with or without a skipper.
