Ipanema 58 Sailing Catamaran Hire

This 2016 Fountaine Pajot Ipanema 58 is a crewed sailing catamaran for private weeks through the San Blas Islands of Panama. The operator lists her at 58 feet, about 18.22 m on a 9.03 m beam with a 1.40 m draft, with six ensuite cabins for up to 12 guests and a crew of two. The published rate is 2500 US dollars a day for the hull plus 300 US dollars per person per day, from 2800 US dollars a day for one guest to 6100 US dollars a day for 12. The marketing line is from 505 US dollars per person per day. Meals, drinks, crew, and cruising fuel inside San Blas sit in that figure. Peak windows around year end, Carnival, and Easter add 20 percent. Confirm the current day rate with the base at booking.

Guest sleep is six queen cabins, each with a private head. Air conditioning runs in the cabins and the saloon. The saloon is a single living deck with a long sofa, a coffee table, a galley, a bar fridge, an ice maker, and a television. Outside, the flybridge is a U-shaped lounge with tables, the cockpit is the dining terrace with a barbecue, and a mega chill floating pool sits off the beam at the beach. A tender runs guests ashore. A watermaker, WiFi, snorkeling kit, SUPs, and fishing gear sit on the kit list. Separate crew quarters keep the guest cabins private.

The captain and chef run the yacht and the meals. Three meals a day and an open bar are listed as included. Children under two stay free and ages three to nine are listed at half the person rate. Embarkation is at Marina Linton in Puerto Lindo, Colon Province, with a road hop from Panama City or Tocumen International (PTY) before the sail east into Kuna Yala. The first nights are the near islands of the San Blas chain, with time for snorkel, beach, and a slow hop between cays. Pack light, bring reef-safe sunscreen, and leave time for the transfer from PTY.

This Ipanema 58 is offered as a private sailing catamaran rental from Puerto Lindo, Panama, a 2016 Fountaine Pajot hull for 12 guests with two crew. The day rate scales with guest count.

Fuel for the islands is included; extra toys or long repositioning sit outside the published table.
