About this boat

Discover the open waters of Zanzibar aboard Knyps, a meticulously maintained 2018 Fountaine Pajot Helia 44 catamaran available for charter at Azam Marina. This 44-foot (13.3m) vessel combines the stability of a twin-hull design with the spacious comfort required for up to 12 guests across 4 private cabins and 4 bathrooms. Unlike smaller entry-level catamarans, the Helia 44 offers a generous beam of 24.3 feet, ensuring a stable and dry ride even in choppy conditions.

Knyps is equipped for modern luxury and safety, featuring Starlink WiFi, full air conditioning, and a generator for uninterrupted power [verified specs]. Navigation is supported by professional-grade equipment including autopilot, AIS, GPS/plotter, and electric winches [verified specs]. The vessel is powered by twin 120hp Volvo engines, providing a reliable cruise speed of 7 knots and a maximum speed of 10 knots.

Spacious Layout & Comfort

The Helia 44 is renowned for its Quatuor layout, which maximizes living space for groups and families [verified specs]. Key comfort features include:

  • 4 Cabins & 4 Heads: Each cabin offers private access to a bathroom, ensuring privacy for all guests [verified specs].
  • Large Cockpit & Saloon: Enjoy outdoor dining in the spacious cockpit or relax in the airy saloon with panoramic views.
  • Climate Control: Full air conditioning in all cabins and the saloon keeps you cool under the Zanzibar sun [verified specs].
  • Connectivity: Stay connected with high-speed Starlink internet and onboard WiFi [verified specs].

With a fuel capacity of 470 liters and 750 liters of fresh water, Knyps is ready for extended day trips or multi-day island hopping excursions.
