Urteil
The Lucia 40 Quatuor is a well-balanced cruising catamaran with a modern layout, strong interior volume, and practical 4-cabin charter-friendly accommodation. It is more comfort- and livability-focused than performance-oriented, but its shallow draft, manageable size, and proven Fountaine Pajot platform make it a capab

The Lucia 40 Quatuor is a compact cruising catamaran with a clean, contemporary profile and a practical layout from Berret-Racoupeau for Fountaine Pajot. At 38'6" with a broad beam, it prioritizes interior volume and deck usability over a sleek racing profile, which suits its charter-oriented four-cabin configuration.[3][11][16]
On the water, the Lucia 40 is generally regarded as an easy-to-manage cruiser rather than a fast passagemaker. Public reviews and specs show a modest draft of about 3'11" and standard 20 hp engines, with some boats fitted with 30 hp options, which supports marina maneuvering and shallow-water cruising but does not make it a performance boat.[11][12][14] The sail plan is respectable for the class, yet the boat’s design emphasis is comfort and predictable handling rather than aggressive upwind sailing.[2][4]
Inside, the Quatuor version’s four double cabins and up to four heads make it especially useful for charter, shared ownership, or larger families. Reviews consistently highlight the Lucia 40’s good natural light and strong livability for its size, though the four-cabin layout reduces owner-space flexibility and storage compared with the three-cabin Maestro version.[2][3][6][13]
As a used purchase, the Lucia 40 can represent solid value because it comes from a well-known builder and a popular model line, but condition, maintenance history, and any cruising upgrades matter more than headline specs. For buyers who want a stable, comfortable catamaran with manageable proportions and charter-capable accommodation, it remains a sensible choice; buyers seeking sharper sailing performance should look elsewhere.[1][10][16]
