Used Fountaine Pajot Tobago 35 Sailboats for Sale

Introduced in 1993, the Fountaine Pajot Tobago 35 represented a significant milestone for the French shipyard, bridging the gap between small, coastal catamarans and the larger offshore voyagers of the era. Designed by the esteemed naval architecture firm Joubert/Nivelt, the Tobago 35 was a departure from the boxy aesthetics of previous decades, introducing the sleek, aerodynamically curved "eyebrow" coachroof that would become a brand hallmark. Constructed using a vacuum-bagged foam core sandwich, the vessel achieved a light displacement of approximately 9,000 pounds, a figure that remains impressive even by modern standards for a 35-foot cruising multihull. This lightweight construction, combined with a relatively generous sail plan, established the Tobago 35 as a nimble entry-level cruiser capable of blue-water passages when handled with care. Production continued until approximately 1997, leaving a legacy of roughly 140 hulls that remain highly sought after on the pre-owned market due to their balance of performance and manageable size. Detailed specifications and its place in the brand's timeline are maintained by the manufacturer on their Previous Models archive.
