Fountaine Pajot Queensland 55 18m 2011, Motorkatamarane

Built on the experience gained with the CUMBERLAND 46, the QUEENSLAND 55 includes everything you could dream of on a boat: an immense saloon combining lounge, dining room, galley and navigation room; decking; panelling; lighting that creates a refined, luxurious atmosphere.
The outside living areas heighten the feeling of space. The huge fly-bridge combines outdoor galley, saloon, sundeck and, of course, steering station.
The pleasure in manoeuvring a QUEENSLAND 55 capable of absorbing waves while sailing at an impressive speed, covering hundreds of miles in a few hours, thanks to very modest fuel consumption, and with the best comfort thanks to her exellent behaviour.
The QUEENSLAND 55 has all the characteristics and qualities of a real yacht with the specific features of Trawlers by Fountaine Pajot :
NO ROLLING at sea or when moored.
GREAT MANOEUVRABILITY thanks to dual engines and rotating torque.
40% REDUCTION IN FUEL CONSUMPTION thanks to an optimised wet area: the boat sails further and faster with less power.
Two extensively researched versions offer extreme comfort when sailing and when moored.
All cabins private and in the passageway have considerable storage space, king-size beds and ocean views. There is private access to the owners suite a real floating apartment.
